All of this is true, but teams have been known to get better, especially under a first-year coach


This one is getting worse

thats a tired line. Pretty sure Indiana bullied bama, who we haven't laid a glove on since deboer got there

thats a great spin to put on this 8-4 (at best) season

Great point. This is exactly why you're seeing late August/Early September games kicked off at 11AM. Everything takes a backseat to TV money, including player safety

Just admit what you said is horse shite.


its not though..saying kiffin would've taken the job in 2016 is goofy.. of course he would have, he took the florida atlantic job... he wasn't a candidate for any p5 job at that point.

bottom line, you either believe that alleva had established, big time coaches wanting to take the head coaching job and he just decided to go with the dl coach or you believe that these people used lsu for leverage and never had any actual interest in the job....i believe the latter

You can’t admit you were wrong.


you don't know me, but regardless I don't think I'm wrong. you don't have that collection of coaches as a candidate pool and hire the dl coach if any of them want it

my apologies

lane was not a candidate in 2016, he was still in the saban rehabilitation program at that point

You have the burden of proof


buddy, you weren't even here for either of these searches lol... i do appreciate you correctly using the phrase burden of proof though.. please give your government professor my compliments
quote:

. “What a candidate pool.” LOL


i mean you do realize that people interview to get a better deal where they are? out of that impressive (top names in coaching at the time) list who got hired?
quote:

So you’re saying that because Alleva hired Orgeron that means nobody else wanted the job? Surely you can’t be that dense. Well actually reading this thread I know for a fact you are that dense.


so here's the impasse. you believe that alleva hired orgeron even though better, established head coaches wanted the job.... i don't believe that.. if the hottest names (at the time) actually wanted the job you don't hire your interim
quote:

Likely there were dozens who would have taken the job


yet they didn't and neither did any of the interview pool that you posted
quote:

How many? Please tell me the number is high at least.


meh, not that many... got a late start
quote:

You said nobody wanted the job. He clearly proved you wrong and you still can’t take the L because you’re an idiot.


who got the job from that list?
quote:

Funny how you didn’t dispute anything


what did you say that i couldn't dispute?? you just got super mad and started calling me a bitch....i dispute that I'm a bitch but what other claims did you make
quote:

The main candidates who interviewed for the LSU football coaching job in 2016 were Jimbo Fisher, Tom Herman, Larry Fedora, and Ed Orgeron, who ultimately got the permanent job.


wow, what a candidate pool..... and we hired orgeron, you proved my point dingus

What is this about


you know, just posting my thoughts... and now sitting here sipping some cold beer from a frozen scooner watching some fcs ball on tv.. enjoying some message board banter
quote:

We are waiting for your source that says there was only one applicant. Yes that’s what thought


who got the job?
quote:

So whether LSU goes the cheap route and hires an Orgeron, or pays a lot for an established winning coach, you’re going to bitch and complain. You’re a bitch.


still mad about the santa thing huh? its ok, i bet there's a pair of nice shiny white boots under that tree this year pal
quote:

A ton of coaches would have taken the job


who wanted it? several folks have posted this, no one has given any names
