Didn’t know who this was. Google said one of the top questions was if he was still sober. Sounds like the perfect fit.

Two primary conditions for me this time around.

1. Absolutely no retreads.
2. Someone who has SEC experience in some way, whether it’s as HC, assistant or even as a GA. Need someone who understands SEC and the recruiting beast it is.

It’s a long shot and a risk but I still say Lashlee is the best option.

If it's someone like Sumrall, would they announce it before the end of the season?

3. Rhett Lashlee


won't happen. He just agreed to a 7 year extension "making him one of the highest paid coaches in the nation".

I don't want a retread. We need to find a hungry up-and-comer and hope beyond hope we get it right. Who that is? Check back with me in three years.

No particular order:

Golesh
Sumrall
Stein
Grubb
Hartline
Open to others.


Don't want Franklin or Lashlee (don't think he is available).

I make Kiffin say no. Key as backup. I dont really have a 3rd. Everyone else I would like to hear an explanation from Cohen on why I need to invest the next 3 years of support to.

I just want us to go away from the hugh/gus coaching style. I want us to be tough nosed and play with energy. I’d go get that dude from Texas a&m that came from LSU. We need a culture change on offense and maybe the football team as a whole.
