Opinion: Does Texas hiring Urban hurt or help LSU football?

My first thoughts, he would likely turn Texas around and make them a consistent contender, maybe a power house. Could affect our recruiting, but I think it will more negatively affect A&M and Bama. Being that they are in our division, could be a silver lining. I think he’d pull five stars and blue chips from Bama weakening their depth overall. He would destroy A&M in state recruiting. Would make waves for sure. But I think we’d be fine and maybe better off as long as we keep the state locked down. Thoughts?

Hurt us far more than it helps us.

We already out recruit A&M in texas for guys we want. Having maybe the best coach in the country on our state border would be horrible. Don't want him dipping into Louisiana (which he would be able to do as good as any coach in the country.)

We want Texas to be a bottom feeder for as long as possible.

Definitely hurts recruiting.

Not to mention he's the all time biggest recruiting trail snitch ever.

He'll spend all day on the phone with the NCAA between us and Jimbo/Brewer over at ATM.

Urban is a great coach, but his demons will eventually catch up with him. He was mired in the OSU domestic abuse scandal which resulted in him being put on administrative leave. He lied about a medical condition at Florida to get out of his contract. He's as shady as any coach in recruiting and then snitches on other programs.

Great coach, trash person.

I wish we could get him. LSU would become the new Alabama.

Urban asks for complete control of his programs. There is a core of about 8 Texas boosters that will not allow that

I think it’s a long shot Texas gets Urban it’s just rumor. Why would someone come out of retirement to put out a dumpster fire?

I could imagine Urban being interested in a USC or possibly Notre Dame if they were to come open. There’s no way he goes to Texas. They have too many hands in the cookie jar over there.
