We need a young, proven, offensive minded coach. He’s only 42, and has a 34-15 record at SMU. And by the way, he took freaking SMU to the playoffs last year! He has recruiting inroads in Texas, and he would kill it here with all of our resources.

Not enough to make them win a national championship in this era, lol. It’s not a comparable program to LSU.

Does Lashley want to win a national championship? You won’t do that at SMU. I don’t think SMU cares about that anyway, lol

We aren’t outbidding the Harvard coach either if they want to pay for him

What’s your point?

It’s really about winning and what Lashley’s aspirations are. SMU has a much lower ceiling.

That’s the point. If he can take SMU to the playoffs, he can certainly take LSU to the next level.

He’s an Arky alum; he could instantly make our schedule tougher there

SMU's and LSU's schedules on a yearly basis aren't exactly 1 to 1.

Their stadium is small because SMU is a tiny private school. One of the smallest enrollments in Power 4.
