He did what the alumni wanted when he hired him, and Jimbo was 52 when he was hired at A&M. For context, Saban was 56 when hired by Bama. How young do you want?

Here are a list of coaches hired by Woodward

At Washington

Steve Sarkision @ 34
Chris Pederson @ 49

At A&M

Jimbo Fisher @ 52
Buzz Williams @ 47

At LSU

Brian Kelly @ 60
Jay Johnson @ 44
Kim Mulkey @ 59
Matt McMahon @ 44

I wouldn’t hire BK or Woody as a corporate executive in any role.


No one would let you make those sorts of hiring decisions anyway.

does beisbol pay the bills? yes or no? real simple


Where in the op does it say anything about “paying the bills”? Or is this just a weak attempt to move the goalposts when someone answers the question the way op didn’t want it to be answered?

And just fyi, LSU baseball is one of the few programs in the country that actually does help pay the bills, so you’re wrong anyway

So no one gives a shite about his success, and you didn’t even mention Jay Johnson?
