Nope. If they don't get Lane Kiffin, they will just post the job on Indeed and accept any applications.


How do some people on this board function in life? LSU has backup plans. They have at least 3 coaching candidates they are talking to (talking to agents at least). If they don't, then the people in charge should not have jobs.

Lol. All this Lane Kiffin sideshow is entertaining. This is remiscient of Saban in his early coaching days at LSU. NFL teams called every year. He and Sexton would listen. If Lane was serious about being a "changed person", he would sign the extension and let this shite fall away. He has not. He enjoys the limelight.

Whether he stays at OM or leaves for UF or LSU, this will continue to happen over the next few years. Whether another big program (Alabama one day) or the NFL, Lane and Sexton will continue to shop his services and he will look at those options.

From 2001 to 2004, we dealt with this from Saban and his urge to go to the NFL. We just wanted a coach that wanted to be at LSU. Not look at every new shiny job as leverage to get more money or whatever.

OM had this 2 years ago when Auburn looked like they got Kiffin. Now this with LSU and Florida. Who knows what teams will be open next year that will come calling for him.

I understand their frustration. If you want to stay, come out and say it. If you want to go, leave. When Saban left and announced on Christmas Eve, it sucked. Then losing the game against Iowa on last play really sucked. Team goes back home to BR. Be gets on a private jet to Miami.

I like Shep but this is not a learn how to be a head coach type of job. He had no experience college coaching. He has no experience with recruiting. He has no coached long enough to develop connections to make good hires on his staff.

Besides most coordinators in NFL want to be NFL HC one day. College football is year round. Offseason is spring practice and development. Then talking with training staff about summer workout program. All year recruiting. Then preparing in season and recruiting. NFL coaches do not worry about that.

As far as getting a college coordinator, I like Glenn Schumann ( UGA DC). He worked under both Saban and Smart. Was one of Kirby first hires when he took over at UGA. Helped Roquan Smith get the Butkis Award. UGA has remained one of the better defenses even after Lanning left and he was promoted from Co-DC to DC. Can help bring back LSU to being physical.

Obviously it is 1 2 3 4 5 6

He is in 3rd year coaching. Many thought Deboer was not ready for SEC either. Les Miles best win total was 9 wins and lost the bowl game. In fact he was 1-2 in bowl games. Best finish was 3rd place in South division. Yet he had success at LSU.

Orgeron was winless in SEC at Ole Miss. Many would say he was not ready either.

Point is if KD is hired he will have better resources available to him than at ASU. Not saying he would leave his Alma Mater but I don't think it would be a "doom and gloom" hire.

What is the reason behind you saying " flat out not ready for a job of this caliber"?

Who is ready for this job of this caliber? What makes him ready?

He won a Power 4 conference championship and made it to the CFP in his second season. Refs screwed Arizona State against Texas and I think they should have won. Would have been in semi finals.

I'm not saying he is coming but if he did, I think he could be successful. The expectations for any coach coming should not be " NC in 3/4 years". It won't happen like that.

Another coach I think LSU should look at. Glenn Schumann (UGA DC). Bring back physicality to LSU. Build the program up like Saban did at Bama and Kirby did at UGA. He learned under both while at Bama and UGA. Top defenses at UGA since he has been DC.

Les Miles record was 28-21 at Oklahoma State before coming to LSU. His best season was 9-4 with a loss in the Cotton Bowl. His best finish was 3rd in the south division. He worked well for LSU.

Dillingham is a young coach who has been coaching since he was 17. When he was at Memphis, the offenses were Top 5 in country. At Auburn he coached Bo Nix become SEC Freshman of the Year. He has been recognized at one of the top recruiters in the country.

I think he can be successful at LSU with resources and getting QBs to come play for him. The biggest question is : will he leave his alma mater? He grew up in Arizona and always wanted to play/coach for Arizona State and he is living that dream.

I stuck it out with YouTube TV. Just did the free trial with FuBo and cancelled before the trial ended. Did it twice the last 2 weekends. Able to watch CFB without paying extra.

I saw the email. I am glad Disney came to their senses. Must have seen the ratings and viewership go down. I signed up for Fubo for their 5 day free trial twice and then cancelled before I was charged. Cost nothing for me extra the last 2 weeks.
