I would call Dick Bumpus at TCU...I know "Bump" very well and he might just jump at the chance. I called him before we hired Chavis and he was open to dismissing it with LSU but they never called.

Bumpus has been Coordinator of the year three times at TCU. Played at Arky, coached at Vandy with Parcels, and Notre Dame under Holtz and briefly at Utah State. He and Patterson are close at TCU but Patterson is making all the money.

Very sound guy. Would be a terrific hire at LSU

If it is Steele, Peveto or Bebe Id be upset.

I do think if we lose Brick to hire Bebe on the spot for DL the guy is a great DL coach and fantastic recruiter, he and Frank would hold down La.

Agree 100%

Hire Bumpus now; and if Les continues to derp the next year or 2 hire Patterson.

I think Bump would be an excellent hire. He has put together a great defense at TCU, look at them now. Plus TCU doesn't pull near the talent LSU does. I think he'd shine here and fit in well, I like his style of football.
