LSU Head Coach Nick Saban hired by Miami Dolphins Speculation on who will be the next Head Coach at LSU Auburn's Tommy Tuberville to LSU? Arkansas's Houston Nutt denies contact from LSU Auburn's Tommy Tuberville insists he's staying at Auburn - will not coach LSU Louisville's Bobby Petrino will interview at LSU for Head Coach position Butch Davis out as candidate at LSU Les Miles interviewed by LSU? - reports of a phone interview yesterday 12/28/2004 - Bobby Petrino has confirmed that he had a preliminary interview with LSU in Nashville on Sunday, but has not been offered the head coach position. 12/28/2004 - After interviewing Bobby Petrino, LSU has received permission to interview Arkansas Razorbacks Head Coach Houston Nutt. --Kevin Donahue 12/29/2004 - Arkansas Head Coach Houston Nutt has removed his name from the LSU coaching search. Nutt acknowledged that he spoke with LSU briefly, but indicated that he is happy to be staying at Arkansas. Nutt makes $1.5 million as the Razorbacks head coach. You would have to think that Petrino is still the number one, despite his love 'em and leave 'em history. Meanwhile, Oklahoma State Head Coach Les Miles has met with an LSU representative, despite Oklahoma State denying LSU permission to interview Miles. Since Miles contract does not require the university's OK for him to interview, LSU is proceeding with Miles consent. Miles has a one year buyout clause in his contract, or approximately $1-1.5 million. The fact that Miles is (apparently) moving forward with LSU despite OSU denying permission signals that he is very interested in hearing what the Tigers have to say. --Kevin Donahue 12/31/2004 - LSU played the race card yesterday, in announcing that they had interviewed Tigers receivers coach Bobby Williams for the team's head coaching position. Previous to sitting with Williams, who is an African-American, LSU would only comment on coaching candidates after they had publicly confirmed their interviews (Petrino & Nutt). LSU also interviewed former Texas A&M head coach RC Slocum, but that's being characterized as more of a courtesy interview than an indication that Slocum is a strong candidate. The Tigers seem to be very anxious to interview Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Jack Del Rio, but have not had formal contact with Del Rio or his agent. NFL coaches cannot interview for other jobs until after the NFL season ends this Sunday. -- Kevin Donahue

UPDATE 12/31/04 by Dave Frey ESPN Radio reported around lunchtime today (sorry, no weblink yet) that Petrino's agent is categorically denying rumors of an offer by LSU. This would appear to be an effort at damage control, as Petrino has SERIOUSLY pissed off Louisville's fans and administration with the LSU flirtation after signing his new contract. In fact, there's even an ESPN.com article suggesting that if he doesn't get the LSU job Louisville may fire him anyway. This guy has a way of stirring up ill will; not sure we want him in Tigerland. My best guess (and that's all it is) now is that Ferentz and Miles are the leading candidates, with Ferentz being preferable but Miles being more attainable. LSU probably won't make an announcement until mid next week, after they've talked to Del Rio (and if you believe the message board rumors, Gruden. Ha!). Of course, if they could get agreement from Ferentz, an announcement could come sooner, but I see this as unlikely as of now. (Boy, how much would Iowa hate LSU if we beat them in the bowl and stole their hotshot coach?) The downside of Ferentz for LSU is, of course, that like Saban, he's going to be on the short list for every NFL opening. This Tiger fan is willing to live with that if we keep winning, but many are not. More later.
Haha frick Petrino

If we hired petrino wonder if he would have left us for Atlanta?
Better question is if Saban would have come back.
