That is probably a good option for him. Kiffin may be able to make good use of him.

Maybe a Texas school would want him.

FCS could be calling. McNeese, Southeastern...Georgetown?

What do you think of Head Coach Patrick Ewing? Improvement or more of the same?

I agree. It seems every politician, celebrity, or anyone who tries to sound like he knows about Louisiana mentions gumbo.

I prefer jambalaya and think that it deserves more attention.

CEO is an excellent abbreviation.

A head coach is the CEO of the program and his staff is really his management team.

The biggest regret of new corporate CEOs is not acting quickly enough to get their own management teams in place wheth

re: Forget OC, our first hire needs to be that strength coach from Bama

After the UF game it was obvious that LSU's O-line needs more strength. They were getting pushed back in the final goal line drive.

I remember being in the stadium when LSU held Notre Dame there for four downs only six inches from the goal in that same spot in 1971.

Miami was south of the storm's path. They inspected the stadium after it passed and it was safe. Someone was thinking ahead. I bet they would have moved to Tallahassee if necessary.

Atlanta, Memphis, or New Orleans for nominally neutral sites with good air access. Dallas, St. Louis, or Louisville would be good neutral cities. Lots of good options not on Bama's doorstep.

Alabama's Joyless Champion
Is this a good analysis?
Could Saban be the greatest college coach of all time?
Could Dabo really beat Saban in a dance off?

re: Time Crunch: Has The 30-Second Shot Clock Made A Difference in NCAAB?

Posted by Hoya Saxa on 12/27/15 at 8:23 am

It has definitely spared us the coaching genius of Dale Brown's interminable four-corner offense.

I think that someone deserves a prize for shot clock.
