I know in 2021 we were excited for fresh blood into the program, but we also were in one hell of a mess with the roster & organization.

A new coach is walking into a gold mine. All of the boosters are aligned. He will have all the support, and be a day 1 celebrity in Louisiana. It will be easy to be LSU HC after BK. (BK did some good stabilizing but he was an unlikable dick)

It feels like this is finally the big break for LSU. Where we can catapult to excellence & consistency. The national pundits are pumped, they know a monster is about to awaken.

This feels like a true calm before a storm

We don’t know who the frick is making the hire and I have zero confidence if Landry is meddling.

We didn’t fire BK to hire a dud. Our money people know who they are hiring. It will be Lane. Or another competent name.

Landry, like him or not, we couldn’t have fired BK so promptly without him.

We said the same with Les then hired O. We all thought firing O would lead to the great LSU reset and here we are.

Too many slimy people involved and now you have one donor dropping his bag on Kelly’s buyout.

maybe , but im pretty sure we didnt know we were firing Kelly at all until that meeting between him and SW went south.

I dont believe we had someone in mind, I think all this just kind of happened.

No. Firing someone doesn't mean the next guy is better

Landry is superior in all senses to clown show Woodward.

Exactly. We are just as likely to end up on a hiring carousel of bad or mediocre hires. The landscape is littered with programs doing the same. Look at Florida. Look at Auburn.

Shula shouldn’t have been fired from Bama in 2006.

Ron Zook shouldn’t have been fired in 2004

Mark Richt shouldn’t have been fired in 2015

Of course firing isn’t always better. But it definitely was the only option after Saturday

LSU is a sleeping giant in Louisiana. We care about football here.

Fla and Aub rather be basketball schools.

BK hire was good. The contract wasn’t.

BK did good for 2 or so years. Now it’s time to catapult

I'd like to see that we're doing a thorough search first and not just hiring Lane bc he's a name everyone knows and will win the press conference

And O won a national title with the greatest team of all time. The irrational hate for him is so obviously rooted in jealousy and insecurity. It’s pathetic. He’s more successful than you and he lived your dream. He worked harder than you and he’s smarter than you. Get over it.
