ND, in fact, stacks the odds in its favor and demands that everyone allow ND football to single out its "exceptionality," with ND the only University Athletic Director seated on the CFP committee.

However, when judgments don't rule in their favor, they cry baby cry. ND's peers said they didn't meet playoff standards. Shocking! ??

I agree with Cowher here. Ole Miss threw Kiffin a lifeline when his coaching career was in the dumps, and he was relegated to FAU.

If you read Lane Kiffin's bio and watch his interview with Marty Smith, then you would never make a reckless and bitter response like this unless you are brain-dead.

Get a life!

Wow! Like Wow! That is funny. Mad, but funny.

OM fans are going to the airport to heckle OM assistants boarding a plane to go to LSU.

They are #100 nationally in penalty yardage per game. Were #125 last year. #124 the year before that.

Yes, you are correct.

With penalties like that, Auburn fans will remind Golesh why his players cannot do that in the SEC.

Auburn fans are a tough crowd, like most SEC fans.

I prefer the great Auburn teams instead of a program floundering, even if they piss me off and beat my LSU Tigers. In the South, good fights are always the best fights.

I know all Bama fans will bash this thread, calling Golesh is perfect for Auburn to crash and burn. They are dead wrong.

Golesh demands maximum effort from his players without turning into an a-hole.

Golesh's teams execute at a high level with minimal mistakes. Why? Discipline.

Yes, Golesh's teams have lost games. That's why Golesh is a winner. He ain't living in a fairy tale. His teams are hard-nosed, grinding, driven players. He has learned what it takes to win.

High School Alabama recruits will find Golesh is eerily similar to their tough high school head coaches. Southern bred for kicking arse and taking no prisoners.

The sun will immediately begin to shine on the Plains. Golesh is not rebuilding; his team will come out of the gates with a plan that aligns with Auburn's tradition of excellence, which fans will recognize and appreciate.

His lack of loyalty stands out in a profession that lacks loyalty
yeah, he lacks loyalty like Saban lacked loyalty...and anyone else who has ever changed jobs.

Remember, Nick Saban announced he was leaving LSU on Christmas Day.

BK is laughing all the way to the bank and then his boyfriend’s house.

I'm not sure BK is laughing. Yes, he will get his money. But this is BK, a pompous SOB, so his pride is hurting powerfully bad. At his age, either he gets another job to rehabilitate his ending career, or quit whining, take his money, and ride off into the sunset.

99.9% Nuss starts vs Hogs. Sad but true.

What is incredible to me is that if nothing in the contract addresses performance, then LSU and other schools creating contracts like this provide no recourse.

Head Coaches have all the leverage, absent moral clauses or breaking local, state, and federal laws. Without performance checks, the HC can do a great job or a terrible job; either way, the HC gets paid. What a financial boon for the HC. No wonder ADs are not Hedge Fund managers. Ha

Does the AD tell the HC which assistants are hired and fired? Which players to play? Football strategy?

I always thought the HC ran his football program.
