Just said it on local Arkansas radio. He says Herman has All the leverage and if Houston goes big 12 he ain't leaving.

Also said Jimbo and Sexton made LSU look like fools last year because they knew LSU did not have a backup plan.

He pointed to LSU's troubled power structure and Alleva being a "puppet". He went on and said even having Art Briles somewhat linked to the job simply shows how out of touch they are given today's political climate.

There is no link now but there will be one later and I will post, it was pretty fascinating how candid he was.

easy for him to say.

he's pretty much anti-LSU. long story but he's had it in for LSU for awhile and was not at all happy when he didn't get the job as voice of the Tigers. he really haves our AD and Pres. and seems to be out to damage LSU pretty much every day.

Brando did call Les getting fired after Auburn weeks before it happened. Maybe he knows something the average fan doesn't.

And frankly nothing he said if that is everything is that crazy, just a little controversial.

Why would Jimbo leave FSU?? He has it made there.....if LSU comes calling, FSU will pay him one dollar more to keep him.

Brando said all of this on Finebaum yesterday, too. He is in full ax-grinding mode.

quote:

if Houston goes big 12 he ain't leaving.


I never figured Tim to be so ignorant to keep saying this without also saying that it is now highly-unlikely the Big 12 will take UH.

quote:

He went on and said even having Art Briles somewhat linked to the job simply shows how out of touch they are given today's political climate.


Some rumor gets floated about a guy who will be linked to every open job this year, and Tim thinks that's on LSU's leadership?

He's mostly right. Jimbo is out of the question IMO. Herman is just in a situation where its going to be difficult to talk.

Brando can go screw himself. He's done nothing but trash talk LSU. Yesterday, he was dragging up the 80's.

In case he hasn't noticed, LSU is a top job in CFB.

This would make sense if they used LSU for a raise, but Jimbo didn't get a raise.

This is a terrible example, since Briles' people will be putting his name out for every job.

Brando is a hack

Tim Brando doesn't even know how to change a tire(swear it's a true story, my FIL is good friends with him and was in his wedding), yet you think he knows what's going on with LSU's coaching search???

He's bad mouthed King, Alleva and anyone else he could since the Jimbo situation last year. He's on his last leg and he knows it, and he's just trying to squeeze a little more money out of whoever he can.

Brando is full of shite. LSU is willing to pay top dollar for a head coach and top dollar for assistant coaches. Houston and FSU aren't willing to do that

Pretty much said what we already know. BOS and TAF think just because they're powerful and write big checks that they know everything about football. Said TAF, BOS and the political climate don't make it a desirable job. Plus, said what we all think is who would want Alleva as their boss?

Brando makes the rounds to local SEC area radio stations saying what they want him to say.

Thats how he makes money nowadays.

He will probably be on the local Mississippi stations next saying the same things. He was in Alabama yesterday.

He has been doing this for a few years since he got burned by LSU and cant get a national job anymore.

It is quite pathetic, but hey....a guy's got to make money.

Brando won't be welcomed down here after all the crap he's been spewing this week. Thankfully he doesn't know what he's talking about.

Brando doesn't know shite, That's why CBS basically canned his arse and he's now doing play by play for Fox SW HOU. The man was at one time a respected journalist but became a Hack a long time ago. I wouldnt' believe a single word he says.
