Were people actually convinced he’d come here? I thought the whole situation was a parody of itself. Like the hype was memeing itself into existence from random, anonymous insiders on TG.

Did Woodward think he had Riley? Is there any credible source suggesting this? Incredibly embarrassing if so. Very on brand considering the Herman debacle in 2016. Hopefully this was all made up by fake insiders.

Multiple legit media personalities thought it was legit.

See the thread about Dellinger, for one.

No one knows at this point. Everything you’ve heard at this point is likely BS.

You’re on a message board for fans of a Deep South team.

They were so butthurt they tried to overthrow the government less than a year ago because they didn’t get their way.

Did you expect them to be rational?

This board provided the smokescreen for the real target in which we don’t know yet.

Any sensible poster would have known it was a pipedream at best. If that....but it's easy to get caught up in all the inside info.

He could always explain his response last night as emotion from losing a close game to an instate rival that cost him a shot of the B12 title and an outside shot of the CFP.

If he still takes job.

I put zero stock in what college coaches say when pressed at press conferences. I’ve learned my lesson repeatedly on that.

This feels a whole lot like the Tom Herman fiasco.

I’ve heard so many conflicting things that I don’t know what to believe. It just seemed imminent with everything else that was falling in place.

Woodward’s candidate could be someone we haven’t even discussed.

Are people actually convinced he's not? He said he won't be the next coach of LSU.

First, we all know Brad Davis will be the next coach of LSU for ONE game. CLR would have made a fine lawyer.

Next, how many times have we seen coaches lie in that setting?

It was probably legit until this dumb arse board blew it up and forced him into a corner behind enemy lines.

You are being too kind in calling them fake insiders. These so-called insiders are the type people that will ask you, do you know of any rumors? If not, let’s start one. It gives them some sense of purpose or meaning, they don’t realize or don’t care they are nothing more than a habitual liar. It excites them to see others believe the crap they are spewing.
