Our team has got to play with no fans for the past 3 years, this will be new to some of you.

LSU is use to playing the second half of every home game without fans so they should be just as prepared as Arkansas and Ole Miss.

Heck, the true advantage might be for Vandy. Home games may actually be home games for them now

F. Franks will surprise a few teams this year. Hope the Hogs get to at least 7-5

When you hire Houston Nutt, John L, Bert and the Chad then that indeed is an unfair advantage.

I think Chad not coaching Franks will help. I believed the Nick Starkel transfer was solid but Chad didn't know how to deal with the Justin Bieber shirt ripping on Twitter. The Ben Hicks was an odd pick as he lost his position at SMU. So I thought it was a red flag and he proved no one wrong.

Would be incredible, but with likely only 1 ooc game and being in the west, it won't happen. Gimme 3 wins!

Come on, man. Give yourself some credit. John L. was only an interim

How did John L win B1G coach of the year at MSU winning 8 games? Wow! Just found that out.

To be fair, he won as many as Chad, but did it in 1 year, instead of Chad's 2 years lol.

If true, mind blowing. I recall him being as clueless as I’ve ever seen. And I lived through Croom and Moorhead.

Lol yeah it wasn't a good season, but thats what you get when your GOAT coach acts a fool. Hard to blame John L with everything he went through that year. He had a lot of personal shite and was the guy who got blamed more than Petrino.

I always thought he seemed like a decent enough guy. Gives really fricking weird interviews, but decent guy.

Yeah. He basically took the job and was given it to survive financially, iirc.

Meh. I think Franks = Starkel 2.0

Unless we get an OL to be worth a damn it wont matter who's under center. But I was never impressed with Franks when at FLA.

Downvote away mates

He gives interviews like Mike Leach. They are just quirky and funny, when you win.

Petrino wasn't known for recruiting the best lineman, and Pittman made them decent.

Let's hope he can do it twice.

I think he invested millions into real estate and lost it all during 2008 financial crisis. He had to file for bankruptcy. He said that he usually has a bout $500 in his checking account at anytime.

Jeff Long knew a bout his financial troubles. He was paid a bout $800,000. So it was nothing more than a quick money grab.
