Why was woody so loyal to Davis tho?


I have no idea. He was lazy for the hiring of Jimbo and Kelly, and stupid for the huge, long contracts.

If he was meddling that much in the program, he was an a-hole on top of everything.

Made me remember that was one of the clips of bad PR that partly led to Kelly's downfall, as well as the fact that he wanted to get rid of both Sloan and Davis, but Woody wouldn't let him.


Why is this a fact in your mind?

100% Woodward wouldn't let Kelly fire Davis. That was why Atkins got hired. O-line was historically bad because there were too many cooks in the kitchen.

Really doesn't matter because Nuss got hurt in preseason and Van Buren isn't a playoff QB.

If Nuss stays healthy, LSU is in the playoff instead of OU and Kiffin is at UF.

Kelly wanted to keep Sloan and just fire Davis. Woody wanted Sloan gone.

Not really. Kelly wanted to promote Sloan to OC Who was bringing in Underwood. Didn’t exactly work out did it?
