Nick Saban brushed off the offer kindly, the ship hasn't sailed just yet as conversations are still being had but aren't very confident in him returning.

No offers just yet for Kiffin, just some feelers, waiting for Ole Miss outcome as he is fully dedicated to this season.

Scratch off Urban Meyer and Sumrall.

New names being brought up:

-Heupel is being talked about a lot, according to my source, they think he would do incredible things based off his resume and recent success and likely the top guy if Kiffin turns down.

-Drinkwitz, according to my source they believe he would be a solid hire if other options don't pan out. He would most likely accept offer, regardless of money being it would be a huge upgrade coming to LSU

-Lebby, they like how he is starting to make the turn with Mississippi state but would be cheap option high risk

-Hartline, the only name being brought up that they are willing to take a chance on. Baker doesn't have any intentions on being a HC just yet but also hasn't had any offers yet and loves being at LSU. This would allow him to fully lockdown defense and have offensive minded coach to take the reigns.

Heupel Drinkwitz


Not a shabby Tier 2. I’m intrigued at the thought of Heupel. Think that could work nicely.


I wonder if Sumrall’s latest game might’ve done him in or was he never in consideration anyway?

I’d be wary of Lebby. Not a large enough of a sample size.

Assuming this is legit, I appreciate the info. Keep it coming as you hear more.

Heupel would have great offenses, but will he buy into the culture and actually try to embrace the university?

Genuinely asking as I have no idea of how he's done in Knoxville besides wins and losses

I don’t think Kiffin is either.

Dodging a bullet with Sumrall IMO.

Would be a tough pull, but absolutely a home run hire.

Heupel is a non-celebrity status Kiffin. Look at his offenses.

Sumrall was in consideration before the newly hired president and AD, he doesn't have the coaching experience quite yet.

Why exactly would he be a home run hire?

He’s Kiffin, just fatter and with more skins on the wall.

We all knew Saban wasn’t a real thing.
