Should Lane Kiffen bring in Brian Kelly as a consultant since he has free time?
Not the same thing.
Mainieri gonna have to wait a year or two before rekindling his relationship with Jay and LSU baseball.

Let’s get Skip to answer that one in a manner inly he can!!!!

NO. Paul Mainieri's record of playing "small ball" just wouldn't cut in this expanded SEC.
Plus he'd prolly recommend another Hal Hughes clone at short stop.
Relax TigerNation.......Jay Johnson will right this ship. If not this season, then the next.
Trust the plan.

I have it from a former CPM player, who got it straight from CPM, that CJJ did not use CPM as a consultant even when he was still on the payroll.

I’ve got it on pretty good authority (former players I know) that Skip isn’t any too fond of CPM either.

Jay, “What should I do next year?”
Paul, “Don’t sign any players taller than 5’9” and none over 200lbs.”

My spaced out brain read that as "trust the pain."
Once I ponderd trust the pain, it gives me hope.

I feel your pain. I finally got to the point where I let those ugly LSU loses just pass over my head.
The painful loss at that broke my rabid LSU fanhood? The embarassing 20-18 loss to Texas A&M in Tiger Stadium on September 19, 1970. The legend John Fergeson did the radio play-by-play. The score does not capture the full scope of that heartbreaking loss.
All of that awful LSU performance can be summed up in one disasterous play. I recall A&M (believe it was late in the game) on fourth and long lined up to punt the ball to LSU. But at the moment A&M snapped the ball for the punt, LSU did not put up a rush and instead the entire front line faded back. Whereupon the A&M punter saw nothing but yardage in front of him and ran for a first down. I mean the entire LSU stadium saw the disasterous play unfolding (LSU did not) and you could hear an audible gasp by the LSU fans over the radio. Bottom line? Texas A&M wanted the game more than LSU.
No gonna lie, it reminded me of an embarassing mistake I made, during a "home" game, on punt coverage. On our punting team, I always played end and I did the inexcusable - I trotted down the field on punt coverage. Luckily our guy playing punt coverage on the other end got down there faster than me to stop the opposing punt returner (for a very short gain). Man, I got chewed up one side and down the other by our coach after that game (justifiably so) .
Anyway, that LSU loss to A&M sort of broke me of the despair from the effects of post game "unrealized expectations".
Taught me a valuable lesson - collegiate football is a game young men play in the fall. Just like collegiate baseball is a game young men play in the spring. I enjoyed and celebrated the LSU victories and if we lost - there was always the next game. The rabid LSU fan was replaced by mellow yellow dude. Pop another beer and enjoy the game,eh?
But I still get chills when I hear the stadium announcer say - Ladies and Gentlemen your attention please, the sun has set in the west - it's Saturday night in Tiger Stadium.
