Good idea, let's pony up and get Saban to come coach our DBs while we're at it.


Let's get Lincoln Riley as our offensive pass coordinator

You guys are maroons.

Belichick........DC

Bieniemy.........OC (I think Mahomes may have a year of eligibility left. We are looking for a transfer QB)

I’d prefer Friend stay. We’re never going to recruit on the Oline if we change coaches every year.


I agree generally but Friend was a bad hire from the get go. I’d rather let him go now than spend another year with no OL development

I know Friend came with Bobo, but they aren't attached at the hip. He can have his own identity as well. It's likely that some of the OL calls were due to some of the not so great OC calls. I wish Tank kept being able to find holes for his running, but he seemed to start just running into his OL for lots of his runs down the stretch

I saw one of the people who cover the team say this a few days ago.. "The OL coach can only go after who he's allowed to go after". If that sounds familiar, its because its the same thing we heard under Gus. No telling if its true, but if Harsin is only letting him go after certain guys, then its hard to fully blame Friend for that.

Well, we could’ve signed a 4* yesterday and let him walk, so who knows

I can’t believe we’re rehashing this rumor with a different HC and OL coach.

There is no way that our problems w OL stem from that way of thinking.

Now whether Friend is a top OL Coach/recruiter that I don’t know. If he was part of Bobo’s hire then Harsin will not keep him around if he isn’t producing in both critical areas.

But let’s not put this on Harsin already. He knows the line group is not strong and must be addressed. He’s not going to fall on that sword like Gus was doing.

Thats true, but we also randomly pulled back on guys we we're feeling decent about at times. I don't know whats true and whats not, but it was said.

Something I didn’t realize is that Pappoe can come back. Is he planning on returning?

Every head coach sets standards and characteristics of the type of player they are looking for. Then it’s up to all the coaches to go find those players.

If a player was rejected you can bet the homework was done on that player. Now to move up in talent Harsin and OL Coach will need to prove some things and get linemen to the NFL. Also, now it will also count on NIL funding as well.

Unknown at this time. Nathan King posted an article the other day about each new signees potential to play next year. When talking about Woodyard and Powell he mentioned that it was possible all 3 of our top LBs could be gone (Zakoby, Wooten, and Pappoe). I responded and said "I thought Pappoe was staying?".. He responded to that and said "could"

Would really like to see him come back, especially if he can stay healthy a whole season.

I still don’t think we’ve seen his full potential.

Not sure if this has been discussed already itt, but the LSU recruiting board is claiming that Citizen may be in play for Deion Sanders at Jackson St.

Anyone heard this?

I checked Wiltfong’s 247 posts and haven’t seen anything about Citizen. Could he have wondered out loud about it on air somewhere? No clue
