His bio indicates a track background in Miami. However, his stat line has few rushing yards. Definitely throw first.

QB from Western Carolina

Someone is going to get a good one. 19:1 TD to INT ratio is not bad. Set NCAA record for consecutive completions. Will be a Junior in 2026.

Is it not clear to you that Kiffin is ridding LSU of retreads? No O, no Wilson, no Austin. Recruiting will be fine, if not better without them.

They do not have good coaches interested in the job. Michigan must clean house in the Athletic Department, starting with the AD.

Once that happens, then you will have a legitimate shot at a legitimate coach.

Powerball is crushing it. Mega Millions jumped the shark when they went to $5 tickets. The jackpot in between drawings do not jump at the same level as the $2 Powerball.

Take a look at the party distribution on the city council, county commission, and school board. If its majority blue, expect crime and tax rates to increase and school performance to fall off.
100%. Been beating this drum for years. It’s even more important now as NIL and the transfer portal evens out the talent pool.

You have a respected head coach who can spot and recruit other great coaches to join their staff, it feeds upon itself.

LSU has relied too heavily on being the highest bidder vs. a destination where both players and coaches can develop and advance their careers.

I believe Kiffin will make LSU a destination again vs. simply a piggy bank and bridge to retirement.

First time in 26 years we have a head coach that other teams wanted to hire. Let that sink in.
There are a number of people in the media that look down on LSU. They see the state as backwards and not on the same level intellectually or socially. When LSU succeeds in attracting someone they previously considered as refined or successful, they lose their minds.
That is a long way to say - “be happy that for the first time since Saban, we have a coach whose success at LSU, draws interest from other programs.”

Last time LSU hired a head football coach that another school wanted to poach while they were here - Arnsparger and Saban.
Like you, I am not on the edge of my seat. LSU’s coaching hires have not been stellar. Since 1984, LSU has had only two coaches that someone else wanted to hire after they came here - Saban and Arnsparger. Not a great track record.

Make no mistake, coaching is the differentiator. NIL has leveled the playing field and you have to have good coaching. The days of someone like Jimbo, Les, or Ed raising the hardware are over. Fingers crossed LSU’s butt lands in butter and we hit the mark for the first time in 25 years.

PS - before you bring up Miles, read this:
quote:

But before Miles agreed to take it, he asked Michigan to show him the love, to show him something - anything really - that indicated he would be the next Wolverines' coach. He got silence in return.
No call, no love, no offer

No more frequent flyer bitch miles for my boy
