Hallman Field has a nice ring to it.

Les Miles did not commit sexual harassment. Baseless civil suits mean nothing.

What he did to all that offensive talent over the years, though, is criminal.

Hell no - I'd rather name it after Dietzel than Saban - and I don't want either on it.

Tiger Stadium is just fine with me - "Death Valley" should remain as the unofficial title.

I just hope they don't put some advertising name on it -

Is it normal across schools to have such conflicted relationships with their former successful coaches? Or is this just a random LSU thing.



It is a unique combination of things, frankly, that can't reasonably be created anywhere else.

It is more common for a coach to have a checkered history with prior schools, if a jumper (like Tubby or Saban), but for a school to have 3 reasonably big winning coaches and *ahem* issues with all of them seems to be lightning in a bottle here.

then should we name the field after when they inevitably cave and print a name on it?
