Despite what any of us think of Chavis

Sing us a song

Uh, moves from within the conference happen all the time.

Play it again Sam

As it should

No it makes him look bad

for him to leave us as a top 10 DC for an in-conference school makes us look really bad to the rest of the nation.

1st world problems, if I'm not mistaken.

That's essentially your opinion about the opinion of the rest of the nation. I don't think you can back that up.

I'm paying attention because I'm an LSU fan, but of the hundreds of other people I interact with where I am, nobody else is really concerned one way or the other. So, rest assured-- you will not have to hang your head in disgrace if you travel outside of Louisiana... at least not for Chavis' decision to stay or go.

And for what it's worth, my opinion is that coaches coming and going rarely drums up more than passing interest even amongst college football fans. It is a little more interesting when you know someone is on the hot seat and they do get fired, but a coach moving on rarely draws continued interest until those teams might play one another and then it's just one more story line.

If Chavis stays, so be it. He's a good coordinator and I don't think it's a bad decision. If he goes, I don't think anyone can objectively say it will make us look bad until the following plays out:
a) We find out who replaces him.
b) We find out the short term impact on recruiting, which may or may not be much one way or the other.
c) We have a chance to see the new defense play at least a few games.
