Are there any active posters that have been right on all or most of the past hires/fires?

Someone with tenure here will fill you in about what it was like when we hired BK.

Nobody knows shite on here lol. The best way this board is used is for an aggregate of all information related to LSU’s coaching search, not the direct leaks themselves.

No. This board always gets carried away with one name. Then we hire someone else.

It's a tradition unlike any other!

It's fun and entertaining. We will end up with a good coach, just not kiffin.

The Kelly hire was Riley from all the sources until it wasn’t..

The O hire was Herman or Jimbo until it wasn’t…

The Miles hire was Houston Nutt or Jimbo until it wasn’t…(not sure if I was on TIgerdroppings or not that point)

That’s as far back as I can remember a coaching search… they get more entertaining now for sure because everyone knows somebody that knows something about it.

I remember those names too but I remember Nutt being mentioned a lot and Jimbo. Jack Del Rios daughter was at LSU right?

whatever happens the first people you are going to hear it from will be someone from the local media.

Makes sense. He is my source. He told me it’s Lane and Saban will be his DC.

I think they even interviewed del rio around the time they were considering firing Les but kept him. Or maybe they were trying to get him as Dc? Idk but he literally was at catholic high with his son. Ran into him in the hall lol
