They will not fire him, even though the program has slipped the last few years.

Despite some recruiting fails the last few years, this freshmen class is elite.

I believe the talking point will soon shift to “the next few years are going to be bright”. And that it will be pushed that he deserves to see it thru. Covid will surely be used as a crutch, knowing Paul.

The big question is, is he tired? Recent interview with Worsham gave me the feeling that he may not coach thru the end of his contract. But who knows

Maybe he is tired, biggest question is from what? It’s not like he does anything. He doesn’t recruit, he doesn’t handle pitching, he doesn’t handle hitting. He doesn’t even know what his players can or can’t do.

Woodward isn't firing him after this year but I think there is a decent chance he retires

Especially if we only win 10 or so SEC games

My wish is he retired after this season for health reasons.

ETA: not wanting him to get sick. Just use that for an excuse to retire gracefully.

Hopefully CPM retires. This year has been hard to watch.

He hasn't won enough championships to have that right. He's no Skip

He looks worn out and unhealthy these last few weeks.

They can force retirement. He still gets money and he gets to rest.

The problem is, if the trend continues, they won’t remain elite. And I have little reason to believe the trend won’t continue.

I’m not sure what he does anymore He’s getting 1.2 million to do some interviews and throw a tantrum or 2. Then sit down with his pouting face on.
Hard to give up 1.25 million a year for doing nothing and know it doesn’t matter. We need a shot of energy to the program. Has been content to be stale for last few years.
Go get Cannizzaro

No one with a brain thinks he gets fired this season.

But since the future is supposed to be bright when LSU is bad in 2022 he'll be fired.

Covid saved his arse. If not this likely would have been his second bad team in a row

PM looked totally unengaged today. I think he’s waiting for the season to end.

The former players hate him, the current players hate him, and finally, the fans hate him. The circle is almost complete.
