There is nothing on Mel Tucker's resume that would suggest he's qualified for this job.

This would be the equivalent of the Orgeron hire


Pretty equivalent to Saban's resume when LSU hired him. Not saying Tucker is who I'd like but your logic is flawed

Sure but LSU is a different program now then when it hired Nick Saban. We shouldn’t have to take a risk like that. Nick Saban’s don’t just grow on trees. The chances of a guy like Mel Tucker turning into the next Nick Saban is less than 1 percent.

LSU isn't the same program as there were when they went with Saban.

Saban also had around 5 years prior with no losing seasons?

Tucker has only 1 full season (horrible record), 1 covid shortened season (horrible record), and one season where he has yet to beat a team with a winning record.

How is that comparable? Because they coached at the same school? How often do Sabans happen? LSU isn't in a position to have to take such a risk.

Many want Mich St to lose today, because if they win people will just start pumping Tucker all up again. Not because one game is the end all.

#1, LSU is in an entirely different position than it was then. It's crazy to not realize that.

#2, Did Saban win 2 games the year prior to him being hired? He did not.

#3, Was Saban a guy who had never led his team to a bowl game? He was not.

#4, Was Saban a guy who had never led his team to a .500 record? He was not.

Tucker is 7-0 this year. That's it. That's the entirety of his resume. And, he's probably staring at 3 losses in the next 5.
