and there are no more Saban's. We're not scared as you imply we're just warning you. Didn't learn anything dealing with Kelly.

Yes Ladies and Gentlemen, the all knowing Tide Turd has spoken. Have his words of wisdom caused you to change your attitude about Lane?

Me either.

STFU, Gump

So do you think DeBore is going to be as great as Saban?
I don’t think he will be.

We don’t either. Anyone expecting him to be is an idiot, but he was the best coach we could get and we hired him after his team’s season was done. After he won his conference and played for a national title.

If there was another Saban out there we’d have hired him if we could. The closest two out there are Ryan Day and Kirby Smart.

If Dabo wasn’t such an idiot about the transfer portal we’d probably have hired him. You see how that’s working out for him.

Lmao. Nick retired on Jan 10 and y’all hired Deboer 2 days later. If Nick would have retired after the iron bowl you would have waited? frick no.

Maybe, maybe not. Point is we didn’t, even though Nick had advised the AD he’d be retiring after the season.

That they had little trouble signing and weren't considered the next big thing.

When they went for a big gun? Misfire. Overpay and strike one.

Are we going to witness an overpay and strike two?

True stuff here:

1. Failed at a blue blood where he had a much greater advantage vs. conference competition.

2. Failed to make playoff with an extremely talented starting 22 last year.

Why is a UGA fan so worked up about LSU hiring a supposedly overrated, unsuccessful coach?

Not worked up, son. It's sad that you think talking on a message board is getting worked up. These kids these days. Gen z or whatevah.

You say this as if the two situations were exactly the same. LSU is not the first, nor will it be the last to hire a coach prior to post-season. This is actually the most common time.

Saban retired after post-season. That was after early signing day and transfer portal. This is rare in the sport.

The moral high ground, you think you have, is a mirage.

From an LSU fan’s perspective, this has been the perfect reaction to LSU hiring a football coach. Especially the reaction from Alabama and UGA fans.

Any thoughts at all on Golesh?
