You bring up Jimbo and Herman more than every other poster on this site combined.

That's because those two were actually being considered for the job. Our idiot AD thought they were the only coaches available in the whole of college football. There were quite a few that thought Mullen at least deserved a look.

Whether by design or luck, it is looking more and more likely that LSU got the very best HC available.

Bear Bryant said it best - "It ain't the X's and the O's, it's the Jimmy's and the Joe's".

And Coach O is bringing in the staff to give the Jimmy's and the Joe's the best chance to excel. (O's gotta do something about getting the WR's mega reps, tho)

Mullen was always going to UF when it came available

Also, the AD contacted multiple coaches through their agents about the position. This myth that it was just a knee jerk is ridiculous.

Jimbo was going to be the guy, that got sidetracked but multiple coaches were contacted about their interest.

Epic? We finished 5th in the nation and forth in the SEC last year. All that year you guys raved over the recruiting only to have us forth in the SEC. And this year you are doing the same with your calls of epic recruiting nine months before recruiting season is over



I'm pretty sure that LSU is sitting at number two right now. You can like it or not it doesn't change things.

You're also crying about LSU being at number 11. You're a first rate idiot.

We were sitting at about the same place last year. Why is so hard for you to understand its not where you sit in May, but where you wind up at the end. And when we wind up forth in the SEC we are probably not picking up much ground on those we need to overtake.

Having you talk about another poster crying is a belly laugh. You cry over any comment not praising O more than anyone on this board.

I'd like to know where you're getting your information. Usually deals of this nature include an NDA and people are not allowed to discuss the terms. are you quoting some speculative fake news report or do you have inside information?

Jimbo beat a more talented O team. Mullen is 2-1 against O and beat him with a much less talented, more troubled Florida the past season. Herman, for you guys ate up with #6, took a unranked since 2012 Texas and finished top 10 last year.

We have a long way to go before we know who was the best available.

What about Gus and Kirby?

I mean if you’re gonna crow about who he lost to maybe we should crow about who he’s beaten.


Just to be fair and shite.

What do you have against coaches that are good at what they do?

What a wonderful fanbase

So, your expectations for the season are very low, correct? Just want to get this now.

What about them? They weren't in any conversation I am aware of to come to LSU. But if you want to throw Kirby in with his leading Georgia to SEC championship games and the playoff, a lot of people would take him.

Just to be fair and shite.

I bet you have no problem with anyone in our base who agrees with you.

Probably around ten wins just like its been since 2012. There a big talent pool in Louisiana and areas close by. Beat Alabama and win the west? Little chance from what I have seen the last three years.

Oh so now when you have a preference on a coach, you’re supposed to be clairvoyant?

You tards do O no favors, constantly bringing up other coaches that where in consideration. Without reading a single page I wouldn’t be surprised if there are references to the fact he’s 2-0 vs O

I don't have a problem with anyone who doesn't exude overwhelming negativity. I cannot figure out why you hate the current state of the program so.

Their only real desire is to fire people. This will not change regardless of success or not next season.

I don't know where that insecurity comes from.

They cannot make a case for this current coach without using other coaches to prop him up in some way. Inevitably past events involving Miles, Herman, Jimbo, and even Saban are used to prop this coach of ours up.

If he's such a great coach, they should be able to prop him up based on his own merits, like saying Miles won 2 SEC championships and a NC, or that Mullen coached Mississippi St to a #1 ranking. Those are things they did.
