I know a guy who contributes to the LSU budget (I've seen with my own 2 eyes at least 1 officially licensed LSU shirt in his house). He also attended LSU (for at least 1 semester - I personally witnessed this since we took a class together... I think it was Biology 1012 or maybe Anthropology ??). He is also no further than 6 degrees to Kevin Bacon (cannot officially confirm). He was at someone's house who officially has cooked for some LSU fans and that guy told him about someone who had been drinking crown and coke told him what this other guy heard. (Names purposely removed to preserve anonymity).

I am paraphrasing since I can't remember each word.
Saban is done with Bama. He's become the greatest ever and has nothing left to prove to those morons. He wants a new challenge but also doesn't want to start another rebuild as HC. He's been talking to his mentor and it came up that Woodward had been told that William Belicick was a good coach in the NFL but unproven in the college ranks. At first, Woodward told him he wasn't interested because he wanted a proven NCAA champion. Saban told William (name will shorten to Bill for remainder of this post) that he knew Scott and would talk to him. Scott told Saban the same thing, but Saban countered with naming himself DC. Scott of course retorted with, "well Nicky, that's wonderful but who's going to coach the offense. You can't score every f#$%ing point on defense." Saban said he understood and would get back with him.

Saban has been reaching making calls the last few weeks and just got back to Woodward last week and said he found an OC, Lincoln Riley.

I was skeptical at first but look at the facts;

1. Belicick has got the Patriots back on track to show it wasn't all Brady. Nothing left to prove after this season except hasn't won a Natty.

2. Saban also has nothing left to prove and hired 2 former HC's to his staff. Random? Or are these his potential replacements.

3. Lincoln Riley quoted saying he will not be the next HEAD COACH of LSU. Why not just say he's not coaching at LSU next season. Guys like that don't leave out details. That was purposeful. Also, extremely competitive and realizes he can't keep his rep up after Oklahoma moves to SEC.


4. Woodward has been reportedly working on potential candidates since before the season...about the time Bill O'Brian was hired.

Conclusion: No coach announcement yet because Bama has SEC title game and maybe playoff. Coincides with NFL playoff timing. The ONLY wrinkle is the early signing period. Oklahoma is not going to the playoffs hence the reason Riley's name is coming up in recruiting. He's getting a head start until HC and DC show up.

We ridin' Dawgs?

P.S. My friend asked me not to tell a bunch of people so please try and keep it quiet for the next few weeks.

According to Baseball Reference, there have been more than 3.9 million innings pitched over 145 seasons of Major League history. And in only one of those has the same player hit two slams

• Take a typical power-hitting cleanup batter, who hits 30 home runs in a full season (600 plate appearances).

• That cleanup batter gets to the plate in the first inning 62 percent of the time, and 1.7 percent of those plate appearances come with the bases loaded. Just 5 percent of those chances result in a homer.

• Even once the first slam is done, our hitter stands just a 1.5 percent chance of getting up to the plate again that inning. In this scenario, 21 percent of plate appearances would have the bases loaded, but once again, the home run occurs 5 percent of the time.

The end result: odds of 12 million to one for this particular scenario to come to fruition.

Also, when they decide to start recruiting again they need to look at the studs from abroad. I remember LSU getting Craig Hamilton from Scotland and the dude set tons of records that still stand and was top 20 or so in the world ranking. Can't build a program with local only talent. In fact, they should bring that dude back as a coach or something and let him help recruit. Always a bonus to have a former stud talking to recruits. See Kevin Faulk.

I am wondering if this is a good deal.

I have bad credit and buying a house is not an option now or any time in the next couple of years. I have the option now to lease purchase a house. Here are the facts;

market analysis on house:$209,000
Log Cabin House in Watson, La with 2049 sq ft. living space, 3 br., 2 bath, with 2 car garage, a small pond with Koi fish, on .67 acre lot. The house is 18 years old with a kitchen that was added on 4 years ago and a new roof and A/C was installed. It has wood floors on approximately half the house with an upstairs master bedroom and bath.
I can lease purchase this house from someone who is buying another house because this one is too expensive. No down payment and asking for what she owes on house which is 175,000. Just take over the house note with no extra fees. I work construction and usually get overtime, but factoring no overtime into the equation I gross 3400 per month after taxes. The house note is 1463 which included insurace etc. I estimated my monthly bills with house note, gas, electricity, cable, trash, water, food to be 2500 per month.
