re: LSU is a top 3 job...

What advantage does LSU have over Indiana at this point? In state talent no longer matters in pay for play
You think a rabid, diehard fanbase with unrealistic expectations is an advantage? It’s not, it’s a disadvantage

I asked as simple question. Provide one (1) legitimate source of CFB expertise, someone that makes a living covering CFB, that believes Indiana is a more attractive job than LSU.
Just one. Not your reasoning. A legitimate 3rd party.

Forget 3rd parties, let’s have a legitimate discussion based on the present, not yesterday.
If you wanted to coach, what makes LSU more attractive than Indiana in the NIL era?
Because I can name many things that make Indiana superior, primarily quality of life and work/personal life balance as you don’t have to take your job home with you every day

Wrong I think it is the Top Zero Job, even better than the top job.
Every coach that has come here have won a NC, got a statue built for them in front of Tiger Stadium. Coaches who have coached here have gone onto win 5 national even after leaving LSU.
So a great career maker.....

The LSU coach will live in a $5MM home, on 5 acres of land, surrounded by beautiful live oak trees, in the lap of luxury. He'll be completely isolated from the filth of the city.
He will dine at the finest restaurants, and be driven 45 minutes away to New Orleans whenever he wants to dine at Michelin star restaurants.
He'll have the finest outdoor activities of hunting or fishing than most anywhere in the U.S., if that's his thing. And golf at some fine courses anytime he wants, when he's not jet setting around the world with his fortune in the offseason.
And he won't have to deal with the filthy meddling boosters that completely ruined the UT program. So there's that....
And objectively, according to all sources, LSU is a more attractive football coaching job than Indiana. I know you just want to dismiss that fact, because it doesn't fit your argument. But part of a legitimate argument is objective proof. And you can obtain objective proof from experts in that area, who measure this type of information.

So Tulane is actually a better job than LSU? At this point, the only thing that makes LSU attractive is the paygrade
The hard truth is historically LSU is a mediocre program. They made one of the best coaching hires in history with young Saban as he was ascending the ranks and he built the program up. The foundation laid was so strong that even his replacement was able to win a championship, but it eventually fell apart. 2019 was an outlier and a perfect storm of events at the very end of the NIL era. And now LSU is back to where it was pre-Saban

hopefully this will be the dumbest thing i read today on the rant but i see a lot of stupid shite posted.
Ole Miss will be 10-2 for the third consecutive season. The winningest coach in football couldn’t do it even once at LSU in 4 years.
quote:
How can you say a program that has never made the sec title game or really won anything since the 50's is a better place for a coach to win a national title than LSU?
Way different with the portal and NIL now. Look at Vandy. Vandy beat LSU and shockingly enough the scoreboard didn’t seem to give a damn about Vandy never having won anything.
quote:
Resources, tradition, and having 3 NT this century say that your comment is pretty dumb.
Tradition and 3 NC’s this century = absolutely meaningless. Ask Nebraska. Even moreso since the portal and NIL. Ole Miss may or may not spend as much on football (not sure) but they’re also forking over ZERO buyouts right now.
Ole Miss will make the playoffs this year and LSU won’t. Ole Miss has had 10 wins for 2 going on 3 seasons and LSU hasn’t had 10 regular season wins since 2019.
Ole Miss isn’t going to win or lose playoff games based on their history and tradition. Tradition is overrated. LSU has sucked since 2019.

I wouldn’t say it doesn’t matter at all but it’s not nearly as important. People here are overestimating the LSU job. For guys like Napier and Sumrall it’s top 3 but for the big fish I don’t see any reason for them to come unless LSU are the only ones dumb enough to fork over a 100 million dollar contract.

why would i ask Nebraska they haven't been a good program since the 90's i set the time frame to this century not last century

how did Orgeron do at LSU compared to Ole Miss? LSU absolutely provides a coach more resources for success than OM...pre NIL and now. To think Kiffin wouldn't have a better chance for success at a program like LSU over OM is just stupid

The hard truth is you are absolutely wrong, and could not support your argument, so take the L like a man. Your initial statement was that Indiana was a more attractive football coaching job than LSU.
That's what you argued. And you are absolutely wrong, and produced no objective evidence to support such an idiotic statement.

I guarantee Penn State will be interviewing the Creme de la Creme . UCLA only because it's LA. I can't consider LSU to be in that small exclusive group when all you have to offer is the Program history and the SEC. Add to that the Woodward and the BoS role in the final decision process.
Posted on 10/28/25 at 12:12 pm to Mr Roboto
I agree with the top 3. I think LSU, Michigan, UGA, are about even for the next tier personally.
Posted on 10/28/25 at 12:22 pm to Mr Roboto
Feels like Oregon and their Nike money should be on the list.

First you say this:
When defeated, you then move the goalposts to this:
You're all over the place. I don't think you really know what you're even arguing anymore.
Again, none of this has anything to do with your original argument, that Indiana was a more attractive coaching job now, than LSU.

It's not the Rant. It's SEC Captain, the Texas fan. He believes the Indiana football coaching job is higher than LSU.
And no, neither he or I are joking.
