re: Possible replacement coaches list

Fickell

I keep seeing his name mentioned. He wasn't that great when he was at Ole Miss, if I remember right?

I'm really asking because I don't know. I try to stay up to date but why is he such a popular prospect? Again, I'm genuinely asking.

He hired fricking Munez to be OC

No he didn’t.

Although he would be far from my first choice, Jamey Caldwell might be worth adding to the list.

Not being rude but why do you want Campbell or Cristobal?

Campbell is a hype man like O - he loses games he shouldn't.

Cristobal is literally an offensive line version of O. Doesn't call any plays and relies off coordinators. 52-57 record and 3-3 bowl games.

so cant answer on campbell but can on cristoball. He has called plays and was OC for Tagert the one year before he took over.

Cristoball was a young up and coming coach when he went to FIU. Consdered young and one of the best Oline coaches in the nation. He built them slowly over the time and at the time they were fricking horrible. went 1-11 first year. 3 wins the second. 7 the 3rd up to 8 by 4th year. then slipped to 3-8 and they fired him which was crazy.

eventually made it to bama as oline coach and recruiting coordinator before going to oregon.

has dont well at oregon.I dont count last year with the crazy crazy covid shite and everything else happening in oregon. way worse than here.

but overall he is outrecruiting his peers and is beating them getting Oregon back close to the level they were under kelly(not there yet)

Im not saying i want Cristobal, im just giving reasons why people are throwing his name in the hat. He is a dynamic recruiter and is much much more X & O than O is.

for the record Matt Campbell was oline coach and eventually became OC at toledo for 2 seasons before getting HC job after Beckman left for Illini.

so both have been OCs and both have won at smaller schools and now at bigger schools.

Personall opinion is Napier is the next superstar but just wanted to correct could things.

Great stuff 777. I just like Cristobal because he has a good record of offensive lineman and it hurts watching this LSU team line up

I still think he calls the big names first. As in Saban, Dabo, Meyer, and then maybe Jimbo.

After that he then starts going through the others if none of them take. But I am telling you it would not surprise me if one of those names takes with the right money. It is easier to win at LSU. I think most of the country is seeing that now.

Peterson will not coach at LSU. He is retired. Will not uproot his family to move here.

Napier might get called but he will be on the list of others in the second group.

I dont see Crystobal here. He has not shown enough where he is.

Freeze is a no go. Keep dreaming everyone. LSU will stop Woodward on this point.

Kiffen as well. And I am sorry he is not a proven commodity as a head coach, offensive coordinator possibly but not head coach. Plus might bring to much baggage with Title IX coming into play.

Woodward likes big flashy hires. LSU does as well with him steering them that way. Look for it to be a big flashy hire to show the rest of the country.
