Not to mention, being proud of this win proves that we need a change. It took overtime to beat the worst team in the league. That wasnt a home court advantage, nobody was there. Even if it was, you are supposed to beat the worst team in the league at their place. Its like being proud LSU beat MsST in football in Starkville… I mean Im glad but proud?

They may could have, we will never know of course. But that 2019 team is still special today… lets think of the list of the NFL guys from that team… not even regular players… if they (Indy guys) are wrecking the league even half as much 5 years from now, then a conversation could be had for sure.

Frank… yes… Austin? Dude is not LSU loyal, he is best job loyal. He isn't a “lifer” dude is from Tenn? So let’s stop with the Austin Thomas love, good at what he does, but not a “Tiger”.

This is cool. Thanks for posting. For me, Coach Les was a guy I loved and hated at the same time… basically the entire time he was here. But other than year 2 O and First Bama game Kelly, I've missed him. Especially with Kelly, if you're gonna be horrible at least don't be a jackass. Have some personality. Kiffin is the first coach Im excited about from day 1. Ive rambled, but the point is, it’s time for LSU to welcome him back. The co-ed stuff I get, but if you're gonna nail him on that…. most all of them have to go.

Tulane sucks bc of NO. Period. And I love our state, but the fact is, they have a great place and just crap on it, in it and on everyone who visits it. Shame.

For years, there was at least one and many time multiple pompous fools running the show… we hit on some good coaches, Mulkey, JJ, Clark etc…but football and basketball particularly have been extremely frustrating to watch (2019 excepted of course and thank God for the greatest season ever). But this search shows, me at least, that the people in charge right now get it. Verge isn't perfect, but he gets it. Lane may flame and burn (doubt that, I think we are a lock program for 2 decades now), but these guys in leadership went out and got the best guy possible at this time. And they did it with an attention whore governor pissing in the wind. Im excited. Im looking forward to the days ahead to see what this program can become again and maybe even exceed that.

The Tigers made the right hire, for the first time in my life since Saban. Will he be successful, I think he is gonna kill it. But the point is, regardless, the staff and Verge did right by LSU. The next step is Wade… if Sankey will back down on blackballing him from the SEC.

Classic

Thanks, will do.

If you feel disheartened, maybe go for a jog… ramp up some endorphins.

I never said a time other than this weekend. The people that are directly involved are the source. I also never said signed. At any rate, cheers.

Hold, hold.

There is a high school field on campus. Thats what I meant.

Did he take that opportunity on national media to confirm he is staying? No. He is trying to do things the right way, have a chance to coach a team he cares about in the playoffs. This interview didn't “confirm” anything except that leaving is a possibility. Again, that ship has sailed, OM has the smallest chance of the 3 schools to have him as coach next year. LSU is in the lead now, for whatever the heck thats worth. Could be that RB featured will be a Tiger too… so chill bro. None of us including the BOS and Verge know what he is going to do. But we all know, he could have shut it down there and he didnt, his family didnt need to visit BR but they did and his son plays HS football with a school field on LSU campus. There is a good chance he is the coach next year. No guarantees, thats arrogant and guessing, but LSU is on the guys mind. And people he respects (saban and O) want him here.

I said this… meaning, heard it but didnt trust it. They did in fact come in yesterday and it was in fact positive. Im not trying to be some “insider” just passing along and trying to be practical.

“Heard this too, don't understand it, but thats the word… purposeful misinformation?”

Yesterday was very positive. Obviously numbers have been presented. OM is pretty much out. Kiffin and his family have a decision to make. LSU showed well. If it’s official as some have said, I don't know that. There are factors which help, but not naming them here so as not to taint the process (we know everyone involved or reporting is likely reading this board). Again as of now things are positive for LSU and thats the best we can ask for at this stage (assuming you want Kiffin, which I do).

Correct. OM is out, its LSU or Florida.
