Rein was considered:

"One of the most promising young coaches IN FOOTBALL HISTORY"!

To the many Negatigers here who have been all to quick, frequent to disparage our great Institution.

LSU secured Bo Rein. Discovered Nick Saban (considered the Greatest ever). And just held a Master Class, performed & executed a Nationwide Coup in grabbing Lane Kiffen.

LSU is a Multi Sport DYNASTY!

There is NO Place, No Stadium, No Fans that Rival LSU!

LSU is THE #1 Job & #1 Stadium & #1 Opportunity & Environment in Collegiate Sports!

And that's not just a loyal Tiger Fan stating it, but was just confirmed Loud & Clear across All/Every MSM Channel, National Network - Cable TV Broadcast, Radio, Sports Writer/Journalist', Hall of Fame Coaches, Independent Internet Podcasts, etc. etc while announcing, covering 24/7 Lane Kiffen as LSU's new Football Coach!

Geaux Tigers

There are indeed many valid reasons to be excited, optimistic about LSU competing, winning titles again soon! In addition to our #1 new coach, stellar staff & incredible recruits......there is another tremendous advantage, enormously important reason to be ecstatic about. One that no one has mentioned yet but will definitely be returning in 2026!

No other Coach in College Football is as dynamic or exciting as Kiffen. He is Hands Down the #1 Coach. So is U High recruit "Lamar" who is the #1 Player & Athlete in the Nation! But LSU is retaining another #1 spot (which is perhaps greater than any/all of the other assets combined) that we are not only keeping, but that we fricking OWN!

And that is:

TIGER FANS + TIGER STADIUM = InFANtesimally Important!!

In Kiffen's introductory press conference he specifically mentioned LSU Fans & Tiger Stadium being a HUGE Burden and/or Advantage!

Kiffen has experienced it. He Believes & Thinks He Knows just how Powerful that Passion/Emotion/Energy/Noise that is generated by Tiger Fans & comes Pounding Down upon the Players/Coaches on the Field.

But Kiffen really has NO IDEA!! And I believe Lane Kiffen is the precise/exact person, coach that is going to bring, cause & extract that Legendary, Inarguable #1 Stadium Environment in the History of Sporting Events/Competition is the World - Ever!!

IT IS A MASSIVE ADVANTAGE!! AND LSU HAS IT - WE OWN IT!!

Say what you want, believe what you may. But unlike anything, anyone or anywhere else on the Planet......LSU FANS & TIGER STADIUM have many times before, and can at any time/moment in the future......literally & actually CAUSE, CREATE & WILL A WIN!!

I have a home on the Emerald Coast & La. I am surrounded by Bama alumni, high level boosters. Am good friends with the Alabama Alumni Assoc. President, and one of Saban's best friends.

My description of Alabama's football program and fans in general is:

"They are like the Jews.....they are God's chosen team"!

Their self-righteousness, deep feelings of entitlement, are deep & ingrained. Bama football is their Religion. While working and meeting/visiting with Biz, Corp owners @ their offices.....many had rooms that were actual Shrines of Bear Bryant! They are very smug, tight-lipped when discussing football with anyone from another school, fan base. You are either In or Out. If a fan of another SEC school or Rival (despite their favorable record vs LSU, they have deep worry/fear every time they face the Tigers! They "respect" LSU....but would never admit or show it)!!

The thing that is deeply troublesome, even dangerous, about Alabama.....is they would do ANYTHING to win, dominate. And I mean anything! And there would be NO moral trepidation, NO pause to break, violate, even eliminate any rule, threat, player or person. And this "Do Anything" is "Automatic & Justified" (Not 2nd, but 1st Natured) because of what seems like a Biblical Level sense of entitlement, duty. If a politician, state official, legal or law official even so much as Blinked @ doing or not doing Anything to advance or favor Alabama Football......THEY WOULD BE REMOVED, ELIMINATED!

Their alumni, fans have private/secret regularly arranged "meetings". And irregardless of your living, working, economic status......when asked, it is encumbent upon them, to "write a check $"! And without flinching - they do!

Again, Alabama Football is really more than a mere Religion to many of their fans. It is all they have. The other reason that was given to me for this deep, ingrained "need" to win is that Alabama lost more men in the civil war than any other State in the south. It was significant and had a hugely devastating effect. And this deep "loss" of men, and the very vital need for support, security, work they provided, "traumatized" the population & state. It so shocked, affected Alabama society (especially the women) that it caused a deep psychosomatic feeling of defeat, abandonment & loss that has been passed down, inherited. It may not be as pervasive, but is still present today - occurring or presenting as an instinctive "fear" of loss & the "need" (at all costs) to win!

I am surrounded by Bama fans. And the comments above are my direct observations, ample experiences I have regularly had & witnessed while with them. They are very serious, devout Bama fans & alumni, but there is something, somehow different & missing while watching Alabama football games with them compared to LSU fans. THEY DO NOT HAVE AS MUCH FUN! AND THEY ARE OFTEN MISERABLE EVEN IN VICTORY! I consider them "close" friends and I like them. But they are simply not capable of the close, tight, open, deep/dear level of relationships I have developed with people/friends from La. They just do not have the culture, broad/wide depth, passion or intensity for life. There is NO comparison of the feeling, mood or "environment" that surrounds their game day viewing experience. Game over - the gathering departs. Even after winning a National Championship....they may celebrate for 15 minutes, but still criticize, site negatives. After 15 or 20 mins - it's back to serious, determined attention to next season! I'm serious.

It’s all well established and documented. 10 to 15 years ago, I read where the actual counting of votes was done outside the United States. And that the company that owns and makes the machines is out of Venezuela. I found this hard to believe when I read it over a decade ago, but in the last 5 to 6 years, it was discussed and verified numerous times.

Just research the Italian military cyber intelligence group that “saw” the 2020 steal via satellite as they observed “global inter web data/activity”. It’s too deep/intricate to explain here. It was so obvious, and they had the actual data and proof, that they attempted to “formally report it” to the appropriate high level US agencies.

Research it! It is well known, documented. If I remember correctly, one or two Italian Military Cyber investigators that had the absolute “proof” of the steal which involved the “counting of machine votes” which was done outside the U.S. were killed!

Well known & easily found Diplomatic report/case that “officially” occurred via high level Italian Govt/Military channels/sources that was entirely verified…..but was squashed, hidden - but nonetheless was verified, proved with hard, real time digital data/evidence! It will blow your mind and is all irrefutable & unarguable proof that 2020 election was stolen!!

From OP:

"Never heard one player have such a devastating impact. Feel sorry for him but someone should have taken the hard decision to take him out early in the season, and we would have saved a whole bunch of money"

Nothing harsh was written, just simple reality. In fact, OP expresses sympathy for Nuss and puts the blame where it belongs = Coaches for not making the Hard but Right decision of replacing him.

The other equally D i s a s t e r o u s decision was appointing Nussmeier as the "Team Leader"!?
** (after just writing that factual statement about Nuss being "the" Leader, my fingers suddenly froze and prevented me from typing the next sentence. I noticed that my brain was also alerting me to halt/wait....telling me to "re-read/edit"....that "something was very wrong" in what I wrote!? I was confused and found myself re-reading that sentence about Nussmeier (#18) being the Team Leader this entire season. You may also find your brain, right now, struggling with what I'm saying/describing. But less than 24 hours ago, during last night's National TV broadcast vs Bama, it was mentioned/confirmed that Garrett was indeed the Team's Leader! While re-reading my above sentence/statement.....I suddenly realized why I was unable to compute or reckon it with reality. And the reason was that "IT WAS UTTERLY INSANE"!!

Definition of Insanity is: "Doing the same thing over & over and expecting different results".

Before I end, allow me to geaux you one step further, deeper into the Pitts of Insanity. Brian Kelly appointing Nussmeier as the Team's Leader before the season began was beyond derelict. BUT TO PRETEND & ALLOW HIM TO REMAIN THE TEAM'S LEADER THIS ENTIRE SEASON......WAS SELF IMMOLATING SUICIDE FOR KELLY, NUSSMEIER, THE ENTIRE TEAM & PROGRAM!!

** psychology, self & situational awareness/analysis (reading the tea leaves) whether on an organizational, team, local/national level....is very tricky & very easily (insanely) overlooked/avoided. Reality (sanity) is often "DENIED"! **. An large portion of a Team's FanBase can become deluded. When I began this post....I noticed that the OP's comments had cumulated a "score" of: 21 Likes vs 58 Dislikes!?! Sorry, but this is clinical "Co-Dependency".

Most people are ignorant as to what the Term/Condition/Behavior of "Co-Dependency" actually is. And consequently, most are entirely unaware of the very real, quite serious & wide ranging negative ramifications it causes/creates in peoples lives, relationships, etc. So, before simply "flaming out", or thinking that I am pontificating or deriding anyone (including Nussmeier); my hope is that perhaps some, or even just 1 I pray, may investigate what Co-Dependency actually is. While difficult to understand/see initially, you will very quickly see, recognize ample proof of who/how/what it operates to control, manipulate and even destroy many lives! Even an elementary understanding, awareness of Co-Dependency will afford one tremendous benefits in how/what is "really going on"!!

And......even cause a Team to Fail, Lose Football Games, Get Fired, Destroy Futures!

OP is Exactly Correct!

Nussmeier has No business being a Div 1 QB, and certainly not Starting for LSU - game after game & left in, series after series, for entire games.

I'm no Football Wizard, and we will see, but I don't think Nussmeier will take even 1 snap in the NFL! He simply does not have the skillsets a QB needs.

In fact - Nussmeier has the OPPOSITE traits, characteristics, movements, eyesight, touch/feel a QB needs!

Not being mean......it's just the Reality!

Super proud of the Tiger team it’s not their fault they stuck with Nuss

Three reviews which none of them would’ve been made on Alabama - to kill the momentum

Refs pulling the Classic kill the momentum

I’m sorry, I don’t have anything against Nuss personally, But I posted earlier about him just not having a “Feel” for the Play. He simply is DISCONNECTED & his TIMING is either too late or too early, throws to hard/fast or too soft. HOWEVER - this also applies to Kelly & current Coach - they just can NOT SEE/FEEL that they MUST Replace Nuss with MVB. Oh, they likely will now, but it’s too late & has been all season!!

Once again, they waited too long.
Absolutely insane that they don’t give MVB a series or two. Oh, they eventually will, when game is in jeopardy, desperate circumstances. That’s not how you flip the momentum by putting the kid in under dire circumstances. Waiting too long kills the opportunity in what could have been “simply part of the game plan” by using 2 QB’s now backfires & sends/gives Bama a huge psychological momentum bump by signaling a Hail Mary desperation attempt to try anything. NUSS IS SIMPLY HORRIBLE - NO FEEL NO SYNC
