I know many will disagree with me,


I agree with every word of it. In fact I posted something similar a few days ago regarding Title IX. LSU has already taken the position in the investigation that CEO did nothing wrong. In fact I believe that is a key point in LSU's defense against sanctions and litigation. So to change that position would put LSU in a much worse situation with regard to the outcomes of the law enforcement issues or civil litigation.

I likewise agree that firing a coach this soon after the NC would deter the pool of candidates for filling the job to a "high risk" group. Currently as we stand today CEO is 1% away from being the winningest (based on win%) coach at LSU since 2000 even with the trash year last season.

This is flat out not true

The way these guys are wired, they all think they will win and win big and stay here as long as they want.

Just two days ago a poll of college coaches came out and said LSU was a top 5 job. They aren’t turning it down bc poor Ed didn’t get another year after running the program into the ground.

Are some of you guys just really dense or what?

Let’s look at the LSU job objectively:
1.Our last 3 coaches ALL won a National Title
2.Last time I looked LSU is still in the SEC. The strongest, richest, most stable, most visible, most competitive conference in the country
3. Louisiana is one of the most talent rich states in the country. A 4 hour radius of BR has a talent pool that only a handful of programs can match.
4. LSU has an excellent brand name regardless how many here may not think so.
5. Our football facilities are top ten in the country.
6.LSU has the money to pay a very large salary not only to the head coach, but the staff that any coach hired, brings in.
7. Our AD has a recent history of bringing in huge names with successful pedigrees in all his head coaching hires.

So..... take the BS that LSU won’t be able to attract the highest level coaching candidates and shove it if O is fired.
