With no active HC and signing period coming up, this can’t be good for recruiting.

Before you start celebrating some of you should check out the recruiting board. He is tied in with recruiting some major players for incoming class. Don’t know how it would effect their status

Meanwhile radio silence from the spineless LSU admin



For once, this is a good thing. No reason for Alleva to dig himself in any deeper. He's done enough of that already.

If Benford takes job that means Wade is guilty and that means you are looking at major sanctions.
No one is going to want the job without a guarantee of a long term commitment after sanctions.
Other than a payday it's a career killer.

Bishop was recruited by Heir and Wade
Quiones is an Armstrong/Heir recruit
Watford's is being led by Armstrong due to the Birmingham ties.

Now, Benford is definitely in on two big Texas guys for 2020. But no one for this "incoming class".

You don't like to lose an assistant coach. But if you HAD to choose one of the 3 on this staff to lose, Benford would have been the choice.

why the hell would he rather be an assistant in College Station for that midget Buzz Williams vs LSU with Will Wade?



He has working history with Buzz Williams. I think people are overreading into this move.

FWIW - Benford denies contact with Buzz Williams. Would expect nothing less until he officially takes the job.
