So you’re eliminating a candidate before he even gets a chance to show improvement, based on his record at a perennial loser when given less resources. It’s a close minded way to view things.

even most coaches who WIN at the g4 and below levels fail at major programs. Why oh why would you give someone who couldn’t outfox and out scheme even the Billy Napier’s of the world a chance at LSU?

You are really going to pull for the Alabama Crimson Tide Saturday against LSU?

people root against their team for draft position purposes the time. How would this be any different? Same thing i’m thinking about the long term best interests of the program.

Knock yourself out. Under no circumstance would I pull for Alabama over LSU.

I have been a LSU fan since 1949, and I have never rooted against the Tigers, and I cannot think of any situation where I would!

Because he would have taken this years LSU team and outfox and out scheme Bama and OU! That’s the whole fricking point. I’m not advocating for Frank to be hired today. The whole point is if he outcoaches SEC staffs the rest of the year, top 10 ranked SEC staffs, he deserves the LOOK. Not that he needs to get hired.

i wouldn’t be put in this position if there weren’t people actually pushing for Frank to be the full time head coach, so blame them.

interim bounces are a thing and they don’t have any film on what Frank will do as LSU head coach.

it’s ridiculous to think one game is reflective of how someone would do long term. just incredibly dumb.

I remember being at the "Pigs Fly " game in 1993 walking out of our section. Everyone was shocked and thrilled over the win. But on the concourse there were two buffoons with shirts a size too small saying "this just means Cuhley will be back next year."

Awesome fans we have.

 you swing and miss just hire Sheppard. he’s doing well at a higher level not a failure at a lower level


Kelvin Sheppard is an LSU great. Please let him stay away from Tiger Stadium, have a fabulous coaching career and a great life.

Not jumping into this situation would serve him well

only way it makes sense is if he can retain most of the defensive coaches and can bring in a top OC and give him free reign of the offense. save money on HC and pay top dollar for Assistants and position coaches. Just how a benefit of LSU for players is going to the NFL make LSU a place for Assistants to become HCs which will always bring in top names.

It wouldn’t be one game. You’re being purposefully obtuse. You’re using records from another decade to rule out a coach in a search that would’ve outcoached multiple other teams. This “interim bump” you keep referring to means nothing. 0. If you’re ruling out coaches and throwing their on the field accomplishments due to an “interim bump” then man am I glad you’re not in charge of any coaching search.

For 1 anyone rooting against LSU should just leave and find a new team.

I want someone hungry and not a coach looking to get his retirement contract.

My main question of frank is does he have enough coaching connections at high levels to hire the right staff. It seems with NIL being a big part of recruiting I want a connected coach who can hire the right staff. Did franks staff at other stops move on to good careers ?

So, if LSU hires Frank Wilson I presume you will never post here again and denounce your fandom for LSU?

Clear your mind is made up. Here’s to hoping LSU wins out, have fun sitting in your hole rooting against your favorite team to avoid having the possibility of Frank Wilson at HC. Maybe you’ll get to call people stupid if you’re proven right.
