This board is melting in advance of a decision being made.

It’s truly incredible, I’ve never seen a group of adults totally work themselves into a frenzy over a decision that is yet to be made.

The fear mongering here that Verge will hire Frank just because is crazy.

In the real world, it’s called being a pussy.

People need shite to talk about.

Trolling is very easy to do during a coaching search.

He might get a great coach. But it’s a lazy hire. There should’ve been a nationwide search but the good old boys want someone that says yes. Louisiana at its finest.

Verge was promoted that fast because he already has a coach secured, and its not Frank

This is just my opinion, I don’t have any sauces like everyone else on here seems to. But it would explain it

Agreed. The pre melt to something that is very unlikely to happen is hilarious.

i'm all for melting after the hire, but at least give the guy a chance.

People said this about O, and this time there’s no Burrow to salvage 2 of the next 5 years.

And as much as i like Frank, his resume is actually worse than O’s

So you think the boosters are going to be cool with hiring Orgeron 2.0 after agreeing to pay BK $53 million? Because the only way it happens is if the boosters are fully on board.

Do i think our boosters are dumb enough to talk themselves into thinking well we can keep Frank on a small deal, then take the money we had earmarked for a coach and put it into NIL/keep the staff together and make it work? Yes, I can see it.

Interesting. I disagree, but I guess we'll find out. Maybe you're right.

Experiences tend to that to people

We're all hoping for the best, but kind of expecting to have a let down. Because that's happened many times before

We just want to be super excited about the future, the hire is huge! And that's why it's considered the best job available because it's so important to the entire state of LA.

You have to put the President, Chancellor and AD in place quickly to get the right coach. This is not the greatest year for finding a coach since so many schools are looking.

Man I hope this is true, and if that coach is in the middle of a playoff run, I wish we could have let the Saban smoke continue. Whoever it is, that playoff coaching experience is valuable to LSU’s future.

I thought the Saban smoke was mostly message board memes and fun, but people really believed it. Could have used that to protect the potential incoming coach from unnecessary distractions.

It doesn’t take much for The Rant to melt.

I guess this is irrelevant to me. There’s a handful of schools that would concern me if we were looking for coaches at the same time (Ohio State, Texas, maybe Alabama), but LSU is the premiere job in this cycle.

Odd, this isn't your first day on the board. Have you not been paying attention to all of the other times this has happened?
