Marcus Freeman. I think he would kill it with the recruits and boosters alike plus he has a defensive background.

I don’t know much about Texas Tech head coach, McGuire, so I would do more due diligence on him


Here's your due diligence. Long time Texas HS coach who broke into the college ranks with Rhule at Baylor. He stayed at Baylor with Aranda as a defensive position coach until he got the TTU HC job. His first two seasons at TTU were ok, but nothing remarkable. Then Cody Cambell, a former player and big TTU booster organized an effort to flood TTU with cash for recruiting (transfer and HS). TTU's NIL football spending is significantly higher than the rest of the Big 12. Not surprisingly, that's helped them have a great season this year.

However, should he leave, the NIL support he's gets will stay at TTU. While certainly SEC programs would invest significantly, the disparity between SEC schools would not be as great as it is between TTU and the rest of the Big 12. In other words, he loses his big advantage by going elsewhere. Without that advantage he's been a slightly above average coach.

actually the claim was Kelly is getting paid 800k a month....so prove it. I said hes getting shafted and can prove it easily by him filing a lawsuit. Its not rocket science


Where in the court filing does he claim LSU has failed to make a payment that is owed to him? He only alleges that LSU at some future date may or may not seek to terminate him with cause and he is seeking clarification on his current status.

There's no second choice; all of our chips are being pushed to the middle of the table. LSU administration and fans love pain.

“Runs the table” as in 3 more games? Hell, the situation we’re in, he may still be here regardless if he wins or loses, unless LSU gets their shite together.

Give Orgeron a 1 year deal on the cheap and tell him if he gets to 10 wins, he gets an extension.

If it is not Alex Golesh, the all LSU fans are going to be crying in 2-3 years, the old refrain, 'and we could have had him in 2025', we were so stupid.....and they would all be 100% correct.

The thing that impressed me about Marcus Freeman was how he responded to the media trying to make it a big deal that he’s the first black head coach for Notre Dame.

Time and time again he just brushed it off and refused to take the bait. Does he come from a military family? Kinda has that vibe.

Who do I think is on their list or who should be the list?

Drinkwitz has been heavily rumored.

Heupel is the next best option to Kiffin and would come with less drama. There's been some rumblings on Rocky Top this year and he may be looking for a change.
