Orgeron was fired in October so there was about a month and half before LSU had to scramble to find a cosch after Riley jilted them. LSU Administrators and fans alike were sure that Riley would be the next coach.

Mike Lombardi reported that LSU thought it had Lincoln Riley locked up as their next head coach, in fact he reports that they had a catering company all ready for an announcement on Sunday afternoon, but Lincoln “bailed on them and went to USC”.

Talk about a panic hire…..

By that token, a LOT of people were saying Lanning would be the next Bama coach.

I guess Bama got jilted too.
