re: Hope LSU goes other than Kiffin...

You have to understand something. Ogeron's inner circle is pretty big. He's been on some of the best staff's in all of football for over 25 years. He can pull from Chaney, Sark, Kiffin, Mazzone, dan werner, freeze, Carmichael, marone, frank Wilson, etc

First of all, your definition of inner circle is different than mine. Second, I'm not suggesting that he ignore his contacts when identifying candidates.

However, it is a death sentence to only consider the coaches you've come into contact with. That's a terrible, terrible, strategy. If Orgeron's success will be based on him staying within his inner circle, he will fail.

He has the biggest budget in the nation for his coordinators. If he can't go out and successfully identify and hire a top guy out there, he can't succeed. If he's going to have to do it (I think most realize Kiffin is a short term hire), why not do it now?
