re: Name never mentioned. Pat Fitzgerald

What stupid idea?
This is why its stupid. Hes not going to be considered by anyone.
On July 7, 2023, Fitzgerald was suspended for two weeks by university president Michael H. Schill after an independent investigation conducted by law firm Arent Fox Schiff confirmed allegations made by a player in November 2022 that hazing, including assaults by varsity players, occurred while Fitzgerald was aware and made hand gestures that indicated that freshman players should be physically and sexually assaulted for poor performance.
The sexual assaults included acts such as being dry-humped by groups of upperclassmen, being forced to enter team showers through parallel lines of spinning naked teammates to resemble a carwash, and being compelled to perform a center-to-quarterback snapping of a football while naked. The accuser said that he believed that "Everyone would just be looking at each other and be like 'bro, Fitz knows about this,' because you wouldn't take that action otherwise".
Investigator Maggie Hickey, who was formerly an Illinois inspector general, stated that the Wildcat players accusations were "largely supported by evidence." On July 10, 2023, Fitzgerald was fired amid the allegations.

Why, because he’s 6-1 at a Louisiana school? I don’t get it.
He also did a great job at turning things around at Troy. People arent saying he should be the front-runner, but he's not a bad hire either at the end of the day. Same goes for Golesh from USF.
I don't think we have to get someone with P4 experience for the hire to work out. Coaching hires are a crapshoot anyway.

The only way this works is if LSU gets a really high percentage of the gate if it's at the Dome which I don't believe Tulane was willing to agree to in the past. And LSU won't agree to a multiyear commitment to play in Yulman.
Even then Tulane doesn't make sense unless they move to a P4 conference. We have to play an additional P4 team and those are usually home and homes or neural sites. LSU isn't going to give up home games to go play in NOLA. Getting the home schedule to work in years with 5 SEC away games, Tulane, and a random P4 team would be a chore.
Its doable, but not worth it when most LSU fans dont see this as a rivalry.

Any particular spots downtown or around campus that are the must sees visitors? That or any traditions that happen outside the stadium?
Really looking forward to the trip and thanks for the info!

Why not? Early commits have a much higher chance of sticking even with NIL. He is from Louisiana, and we have pulled in several recruits in the top 100 in the NIL era.
There’s no reason to be negative about the commitment at this point. Some of y’all need to learn to enjoy good news when it comes.

Why do you think this is a good idea?
Having animosity amongst the team is a great way for thing to turn south quickly when we lose a game or two. It makes way more sense for the team to bond and have each other's backs.

I'm pretty sure Pitch 25 is family friendly. It's not too far from the stadium and it a good spot to watch othet games especially soccer. There's a solid burger place nearby called Rodeo Goat too.

Our special teams are terrible and need to be fixed, but no he isn’t the worst coordinator in the country. That “honor” goes to Brian Ferentz.
re: Rating the basketball teams as of right now

Tennesse has definitely played more high end opponents, and I can see arguments that they are better than LSU going forward, but it’s hard to say they’re better right now when all of the advanced metric are saying LSU is better.
Is being 2-2 in Q1&2 games better than being 4-0? Tough to say at this point when we don’t have all the data. It will all sort itself out quickly for LSU once the Auburn game tips off.

May I ask who LSU has beaten that could have a winning record against a 7A high school schedule?
Belmont is a pretty good squad. They are ranked 56 in the Kenpom. Tenn’s best win is UNC who is ranked 37th.
SoS in Kenpom for LSU is 173 while Tenn’s is 232.
I’m not saying that LSU is better than Tennessee, but beating a good and not great UNC team isn’t the datapoint to prove it. LSU’s defense is elite at this point, and we will find out just how good it is once conference play starts.

You’re not wrong. I hope the changing of the guard makes the team more successful, but I’ll believe it when I see it.

Couldn’t agree more. Additionally, he is recruiting just fine for a school that has higher academic standards than us and worse in state talent. The rankings below are the composite for ND since 2017.
2017: 10th
2018: 10th
2019: 15th
2020: 18th
2021: 9th
2022: Currently 4th with 17 blue chip recruits.

The guy has exceeded expectations at both of his prior jobs. Toledo and ISU are extremely hard placed to win at. Outside of his first season at ISU, he has never finished lower than 4th in his conference as a head coach.
Why can’t he compete at a high level when given the tools that we can give him? Again, he isn’t first on my list and he certainly has flaws, but so does every other candidate we are looking at..

Iowa State Recruiting Rankings

There has been a lot of talk regarding Matt Campbell’s ability to recruit. The chart below shows how both Matt and Paul Rhoads recruited to ISU based on the national composite. Clearly, this doesn’t tell the whole story, but Campbell has improved recruiting in recent years after establishing himself.
The class this year isn’t done and will likely fall, but it would still be an improvement over where ISU’s recruiting was under Rhoads. Does this mean he can recruit at an elite level at LSU? Who knows? But at least we can argue off of some established numbers now.
