He would almost have to surround himself with local assistants, or at least some familiar with the south.

Exactly.

Has Saban retired before? I don't believe he has.

You flat out said no to Saban for 5 years. I asked you a direct question.


Would you rather have Saban in is late 60s or Saban in his mid 40s?

There is no guarantee that Casey will produce here like he did at OSU and at the same level that Saban has for Bama just like there is no guarantee that hiring a Godwin or Vitello means we got the next "Saban".

A lot of us would rather hire a younger guy that hasn't already retired due to health concerns and burn out.

When he was 15, he inappropriately touched his 6 year old niece/cousin. Pled guilty and went through the 2 year court ordered program.


Casey knew about it.

No thanks.

Woodward isn’t hiring a younger guy “and let’s just hope.”

That isn’t what the big checks for Jimbo and Mulkey were about

Yeah I'm out on cheering for a coach that coddled a child molester. No thanks, hard pass.

My biggest issue with him isnt that case, its his age and lack of coaching in the south. Everything else is great about him



Biggest issue is the fact that he admitted he was burnt out. If LSU were plucking him still coaching at OSU it would arguably be the best hire possible.

The guy won 3 titles with zero history, a small fanbase, and no recruiting base. The idea that he wouldn’t have success at LSU is ludicrous. That’s if he’s all in.

With zero expectations.

Baton Rouge is a pressure cooker. Pac 12 isn't the SEC.

He would win a championship in 2 years at LSU. Please don’t hire him. Please.

Yeah well that is idiotic that you wouldn’t take Saban for 5 years
The 5 year comp doesn’t hold water in baseball considering the first recruiting class that is completely his won’t even arrive on campus for three years.

No way Scott Woodward goes from a home run Kim Mulkey hire, to a complete dud like a Pat Casey. He is a good coach but that's not what LSU needs

rice pays more for a HC than LSU would assistant. Ngl Goat would be a very sneaky good HC hire tho.
