Maybe he thinks hard about it if its from LSU and not Louisville. Skip didn't have a crystal ball. There's no telling what could have happened.

It's a terrible mindset to go into a coaching search with.


we had just lost our best coach to the pros. It was well know that Petrino was a shady ladder climber.

Keep in mind he also wanted someone that wouldn't embarrass the University.

Scratched Petrino off of the list because of interest in going to the pros.

Fail on Skip's part.


hardly


Very. That's small time thinking. You want a coach that the pros want.


And how did his pro stint workout? How did his first try at Auby job turnout. How did his stay at Arky turnout?

Petrino is filth.

at that time LSU was hiring a new Coach every 4-5 years and Skip wanted to break that trend.

He said earlier that he wanted someone who would be at LSU long term. Makes perfect sense.

That would be dumb to hire a guy who's telling you his eye is on the NFL. Makes no sense.

Saban really screwed us on timing.

It is funny to hear he didn't want to do it.

Petrino made a pretty "bad" joke during his interview that made LSU sour on him.

yeah I want more than a 3 year window, but if you kill it here and have a better opportunity that we can't meet go for it.

Petrino was shady and bad interviewee though.

You have to remember the black mark for trying to back door Tubby at Auburn too
