Legend! However I'd like to see the Tigers looking strong like they did earlier in Tommy's LSU days.

It's ironical that his protege Scott Cochran is much better at the job than him. If LSU wanted the best guy in the country, they should have gone after Scott.

Just hire a crossfit "coach" for $25k and put the rest in the taxpayers pocket. Moffitt is an overpriced gym teacher.

Does Tommy even lift?

25% raise for mediocrity, par for course

Hard to tell how much of the criticism he received was due to miles' practices. Our players didn't looked gassed the back end of this year, and played about where we would expect. Outside of Redzone efficiency against UF (not on moffit) what is the gripe this past season? We handled ark following a physical bama loss, a bama loss in which their depth not conditioning took over in the 4th quarter.

Miles apparently ran the players into the ground. Even if in great physical/game shape, there comes a point when your body is just exhausted and being in great shape doesn't matter anymore and rest is needed.

I don't get it !!

Other than talking steroids, what's cutting edge about getting in shape? I think Moffit is well qualified.

jeff5891•87 months

Very uneducated post

Meh

I really think we need new blood here. Tommy learned the Hatch method and most of Hatch's other apprentices have evolved as we understand more and more about the body. Tommy isn't cutting edge anymore.

coopsdad•87 months

Not true. Tommy also has two protoges of his own out there in Scott Cochran head SC coach at Bama and Vic Viloria head SC at Florida State.

Blanky6715•87 months

And those two proteges have been showing him up.

Lsuchs•87 months

Have they though? That's what we are going to find out under a new regime, how much was miles. You could say FSU has had struggles against inferior talent, and bama has a talent edge on us and everyone they play. Would Moffit not have them playing similarly? Idk

We have the best people, don't we folks?

Ripley•87 months

We do but get ready for a lot of disagreement on this opinion.
