My guess is Ray Tanner.

Kidding... old as Pat Casey and likely wont leave sweet AD job.

Hoping its not Bianco. Think Godwin would be legit here. Wont know for at least another week.

O'Sullivan is marginally better than most of his recent predecessors.


So having a natty and more World Series appearances than the rest of the program combined is “marginally” better.

Bertman’s 83 with a bad ticker, why are seeking his approval? If we are beholden to someone who hasn’t coached and over 20 yrs we are screwed

I truly believe it’ll be someone everyone is happy about. There is way too much misinformation out there and it has to be on purpose.

I have a hard time believing that Woodward brought a candidate before the BOS without having done proper vetting on their background. To me this sounds like OTOP trying to save face.

This is true. They were supposedly having an affair for a while. Word is he’s a massive man whore. He was dating a recent UF grad last year, either volleyball or softball player, forget which.

I think there were other factors involved tho with the husband losing it. Apparently lost his job and other shite was going downhill. Wife is not that attractive from what I hear.

It’s not going to be either. The money people have given Woodward the green light to spend to get the best.

Relax not happening. Any Bianco rumors are just that rumors. Woodward isn’t hiring a Tier 2 coach. He is swinging for the fences.

So Woodward presented O’Sullivan to the BOS before Florida’s and LSUs seasons were over? Then the BOS told Walk on Water Woodward no? I have a hard time believing this story.

That sounds more likely. They stand to look like fools.

I figured that would be a tough sell with everything that's going on at LSU

Board of Supervisors??!! Their decision?? Don't like that idea at all- what, do we need a 'woke' coach or someone sensitive to all genders?? Not a good call, whether anyone liked or disliked O'Sullivan...

Ok, well the above is an issue, but looking closer at O'Sullivan's 'character' apparently he has a lot of somewhat sleazy baggage, so with all that's going on at LSU, I can see that being a big issue...

You’re jumping to a lot of conclusions here. No one knows why the guy did what he did. If Sully is single and dated a recent college grad, good for him. Kiffin is known for much worse and schools line up to hire him.

Not sure what the rub is on this board with Sully. Resume wise, we cannot do better with the available candidates.

Twitter link. BOS rejected O’Sullivan, and he’s told his team he’s staying at UF. I’ll be very happy if true. Don’t want him in BR at all.


I want him over the idea of Bianco.

Still prefer McDonnell or Vitello.
