Heupel
Malzhan

Kiffin would be up there too if we could get him and not break the bank.

Drinkwitz

We just had a guy with a personality that didn't fit the program, why go get another?

He also has a .623 win percentage at Mizzou and is 1-9 vs top 10 opponents.

Went from highschool HC to SEC OC and won the West in his first season.

#1 in country ppg and ypg. 2025.

Won a national championship and lost one on the final play ( the trick kick)

I'm not sure you know as much as you think.

1. Nick Saban
2. Bear Bryant
3. Belichick w/ 30 year old Tom Brady
4. Will Wade
5. Matt Viator

Here's what I do know:

He was a .660 head coach at Auburn and a .538 head coach at UCF.

We just fired a .708 head coach.

Primetime would be a great fit. LSU would get him the resources and talent he needs to succeed.

Saban was a fun name to toss around. He is not a realistic hire.

Based on the thoroughness and competence that our president and AD searches were combined with, it seems like Frank is going to be the guy.

Lets just bring back our two former coaches : Miles and ED.
Miles can run the offense. No more worries about 3rd and 1 .
Have Ed O on the sidelines to rip off his shirt and start slapping helmets when the team needs motivation. Then we can say we have a staff made of 2 national champ Hc's. This should have the recruits lining up.

I hear Barry Switzer is interested.

You can cross Tom Osborne off the list.....he wanted the AD job

John McKay.....discuss

I'd give your left nut for Schnellenberger.......he hasn't been gone .....too long.

Make an offer to Jimmy Johnson......get him on the phone. Make him say NO
