I will hate to see Frank go whenever that time comes. He’s an excellent recruiter/ relationship guy, but not a good college football coach. I would like to see him in his wheelhouse with recruiting but it seems he may want more. It will eventually be a tough breakup, especially if/ when he gets a spot with another SEC rival. No one is bigger than the program and it appears he could try to use his ties to N.O. to hold us hostage. Just my two cents.

You are joking, right?

What makes Bama a better job than LSU? Seriously?

What players do you think he will bring with him? Lacy is a stud. Echols on the defensive line is great.

I can’t remember the exact year, maybe 86-87’. I was a teenager and loved pirogue hunting ducks in Dorcheat Bottoms near Cotton Valley. We killed mostly woodies but occasionally a few mallards. We had a series of strong cold fronts that brought a lot of rain to the bottoms. The water was so high in the bottoms that we had to park our truck on the side of Hwy 371 and slide our pirogue s down the embankment and we paddled down a pipeline into the bottoms. Me and my buddy split up. One of us went north and the other south of the pipe line. Immediately I killed a couple of woodies and was “done” but I started hearing mallards up in the flooded timber. I eased up in a flooded flat and it was full of mallards. I’d never seen them like that before in there so I shot a couple of drakes. I was over the limit and was pretty nervous but I keep hearing more mallards on the water up ahead. I also noticed the sky was full of ducks working down in the the timber holes and I couldn’t believe what I saw. I kept shooting till I had 14 mallards, mostly green heads and 6 wood ducks. Way over my limit. I could hear my buddy up the creek shooting but not as much as me. I got really scared and had to finally unload my old 870 and lay it in the bottom of the pirogue to keep from shooting more ducks. I left there and found my buddy. He had 6 woodies himself. We had 26 ducks between us and knew green jeans probably heard us shooting. We devised a plan to go hide all but our limit of ducks on the other side of the creek bottom about a mile from where we launched. We came out with our limit loaded up and drove way around to the other side and picked up our stashed ducks. I look back and think how stupid that was and that it was a federal matter. That was about 40-41 years ago but I still think back to that magical day often. Thousands of mallards in those bottoms and now you can’t hardly see a woodie in there. I would never think about doing such stupidity now but every year at the first sure enough cold front I look up to the skies and reminisce the magical day in that bottom.

GeauxTigers0107, I completely agree with you. Why does it bother someone how I choose to spend my money and my time? Whichever side you are on is fine, but why get mad at a guy that has a different opinion. I try to stay out of other people’s decisions and choices whether it’s livescope, killing spikes, or anything other controversial thing. Why can’t you do you and let me do me? I just don’t get the hate because you have a different opinion than someone else.

Where are some of the best places to hold corporate meetings in the DFW area?

He would be crazy to leave Oregon. He has unlimited resources, any easy path to the playoffs every year.

My father in law’s 08’ Tundra currently has 320K on it.

Looking to buy some kitchen appliance with Labor Day deals. Brands to stay away from? Best options?

I’ve been cutting 5 acres with an Exmark Lazer Z since 2012. It has been a very good machine. Keep maintenance up and they will last. There are several brands that make high quality mowers, but I would buy Exmark again. Buy once, cry once!
