Won't hire O because LM doesn't want someone with a strong personality. This was talked about by Ken Trahan. I hope he is wrong because he would lock in the recruiting. As a coach you can never become bigger than the program. We shall see. Once again i hope Trahan is wrong.

He's probably cheaper


most reports outside of that oklahoma article and mytigger say that stoops was a courtesy interview.

I think Miles is in full control of who they hire. I'm sure money will be a factor but I'm not exactly sure if they have a pre set value. I think some have reported that. We shall see.

coach O will come in if brick leaves. I don't think LSU will fire him or move him to an administrative position.

it also may be that he is one of the fall back options. I don't think anyone knows the exact reason he was interviewed. But the rumor that he was going to be offered were clearly false.

2-1 CP

This is obvious


quote:

5-1 Stoops



it's hard to say if it is this high or not. I would say lower but I can believe why it may be this high.

quote:

7-1 Steele


Shea Dixon continues to say that he hasn't been contacted. He is a candidate but probably near the bottom of the list. I still think he is a long shot because of his relationship at bama.

quote:

15-1 Venables


He signed an extention in the midst of the search I think he is off the table.


quote:

20-1 Shoop


I think this is a good bit higher. Mainly because he did have contact with Miles, but that is about all that is known.

I'm pretty sure I saw they were 117th in PASSING defense. That's probably where that came from.

confirming this morning that it is definitely 2 interviews today... all indications still point to CP & Stoops, but I cannot confirm that 100%. all the other interview crap is just feeding the media misinformation. brick situation should be sorted out in a day or two, it's what is holding up any deal with O. Shoop is still in the picture. He contacted LSU after the bowl, but contrary to what I said yesterday he and Les also talked again while Les was in BR - I'm not sure if it was a phone call or a meeting.

CP 2-1
Shoop 5-1
Stoops - At this point he's the only person with one interview so far, so he may the smokescreen....

One of the problems with the current defense is that it is complicated Chavis runs the simplest defense in college football.


True. His scheme isn't complex, and he very rarely tries to disguise what they are doing, other than the occasional delayed blitz. I think it comes down to trust with him, mainly at the MLB spot. He has played plenty of true freshmen on the line and in the secondary, be he has always been touchy about who gets reps at LB.

The calls may not be complicated, but what little is going on up front is happening with the LBs in base or Nickle. The line just rushes or plugs holes in the run game.

I'm not sure, I thought Kleinpeter ran an article the other day that listed Shoop, Steele, Venables, etc.

Everybody is quoting the Oklahoma report on Stoops

Hi can only hope Miles, his agent and Alleva have a bit of situational awareness...This DC hire needs to be a home run..All candidates are flawed but as its been said numerous times, the CP/O combo appears to have both the sizzle and substance we need

changing your story quickly I see.

Only messing with you. I do enjoy your inside information, I was just very reactive last night and had a couple drinks in me.

I haven't heard anything about any other coaches moving into an Admin position. It could be the case, I just hadn't heard, or asked about it.
