Listen to an LSU player and they are pro Moffitt. That's all I got.






This isn't limited to Moffitt but you can't listen to players, the players loved Orgeron too.

They're 18-23 year old males, possibly the most unstable demographic there is.

As for the hire itself, who knows what will happen?

There were obviously some issues towards the end of Orgeron's tenure specifically within this area but not sure if Orgeron or Moffitt is to blame.

Kelly wanted a more "modern approach" and that seems to be working fairly well, so Moffitt sat at home for two years.

Not sure if he had no other options or if he was picky with the opportunities he pursued, dude is like 60 now.

No problems hiring a guy that is 60.

Some of these old men can be mean sobs.

But why a long story to keep putting Tommy down with all the sneak dissing? Backhanded compliments? Grow up lol you don’t need a pissing contest to call Moffitt outdated and your coach cutting edge lol good grief, like this board needs you guys to really drive that point

Just say good hire and move along.

How has it worked better than when Moffitt was around? His results on the field show otherwise. As the OP stated, he played a key role in the Tigers winning 3 national championships. How many have the Tigers won since he left? And the age thing? How old is Saban?

Former players still swear by him. That's not emotional 18-23 year olds. Dude put more guys in the NFL than anyone else.

A&M got a great hire. Any LSU fan saying otherwise is just mad.
