That's not really pressure on who to pick. He can pick whoever he wanted, it just later had to be approved.

There's a clear difference.

I personally know this to be factually false. Skip was told in no uncertain terms by the BOS search committee that if the board and Chancelor did not approve of the coach he selected, they would not be the coach at LSU.


That's slightly different than what he said, though.

I didn't know Nick wanted to come back the year he left Miami, was this common knowledge?
It was definitely rumored at the time.

PS - cool story bro (sorta) I was on a bus in Disney around this time with Jordy Hultberg who said this very rumor to me personally. I had on LSU shirt so he started conversation. I knew who he was of course but wasn't going to bug him. TIFWIW

I don't feel bad for him but I also don't blame him for going to Bama.

Loved the tidbit about how he knew Les wasn't leaving for Michigan, "because he told me."

Pretty much Jimbo wasn't ready at the time. Skip really wanted a sitting Head Coach.

Nick told decision makers not to hire Jimbo as HC

I think the only reasonable thing to do is let them settle it on the field Nov '17.

Michigan & Les have always denied it . So no


Of course they did...I don't think very many ever actual believed the denial. I in fact think Les was going to take it and changed his mind at the last minute.

Probably good for him I think he would not have made it as long there as he did here.

I had always heard that Terry Saban didn't want to leave BR. Supposedly she abhors Tuscaloosa, even though they are treated like royalty there.
