re: Do we even interview coaches anymore? Or just race to reset the market?

Thank you! Make the candidate earn the job and show you his vision, don’t just up the salary to make a splash.

He’s left LSU like 4 times for other schools. There is no reason to make any effort to keep him.

Third time. I was in love with Tom Herman in 2016 and was pissed when O was hired. I was wrong, he was the right hire at the time because he actually had a plan to build a championship program (the binder).
I was also in love with Aranda and Riley last time. Not sure what would’ve come of any of those, but I don’t think anyone was right about that one.

Call me old fashioned, but I don’t believe the most splashy and expensive hire is the right answer at a program like LSU. Maybe it is in the case, but I can’t think of a time where that worked? Jimbo failed at A&M, Kelly failed at LSU, Lincoln looks OK at USC..
I want the athletic director to sit across the table man to man and ask a candidate what their vision is for LSU football and how they plan to achieve that.
I don’t believe that’s how we’re operating. We’re going after the biggest fish for the biggest money again because he’s who the hottest name is.
I hope it works out with Kiffin if we land him, but I’m skeptical.

My mentor Jimmy Buffett used to love St. Barts. May he rest in peace.

I’ve actually been really pleasantly surprised with the show. It’s a different vibe, but Flynn knows ball and can explain things way better than Hester or T-Bob.

5th year senior who plays his arse off with a ton of enthusiasm. Had some great plays tonight. He’s suffered through injury and being on some bad teams but is an awesome player. Great tiger and we will miss him next year. I hope he has a long NFL career. Thanks #90!!

re: Why are people on here so unwilling to name their sources? Don’t you want credibility?

No one who actually has sources is going to anonymously burn them for internet clout from HailHailToMichigan! on the Tiger Rant.

If it’s Saban, the money would flow in so fast it wouldn’t matter.

Jimbo was head coach in waiting for Bowden. That’s the only time I can recall it working well. Muschamp was HCIW at Texas but jumped to Florida first. I believe WVU had a situation recently that did not work out well.
re: Just watched many lives of Kiffen and don’t think he will come to LSU.

Good point. Oxford is known for its modesty and sobriety.
Did Jimmy Buffett ever visit Grand Isle, La.?
Posted by Paper Tiger Tent on 10/15/25 at 11:29 pm
Does anyone have any recorded stories of Jimmy visiting GI?
He seems like he would have loved it, and I know he had a great affinity for New Orleans. I also used to believe this line was written about Grand Isle:
“I want to go back to the islands
Where the shrimp boats are tied up to the piling
Give me oysters and beer
For dinner every day of the year
And I'll feel fine, I'll feel fine”
Any insights?

Oh nice so it’s:
#1 overall seed last year
The last team to win the World Series other than us
The team who won it before that
The team who won it before that
Top 8 seed from last year

In the 12 team playoff era, this game just doesn't mean as much as it used to. With transfers all over the field and Clemson having home-field advantage, keeping it close would be a nice showing.
This team's mettle will really be tested in the weeks after... can they bounce back and win 10 of the last 11? I think so! And then, can they beat Clemson in a rematch? Time will tell.

Thanks to all for participating. GEAUX TIGERS. I’m sorry I had to do this, but you gotta do what you gotta do. Original post below.

Subject: Mulkey’s LSU teams have gotten worse every year
First year (year 0) obviously doesn’t count for basketball coaches.
Year 1 Natty
Year 2 elite 8 loss (as preseason #1)
Year 3 sweet 16 loss
Concerning trend.
