LSU is about to hire a very very unworthy HC

We could be giving the same base salary offer but a 100% better incentive sided salary.


I’m all on board for this. Any coach that’s worth his salt would jump at incentives at LSU. The world is your oyster.

He either has autism or just doesn’t give a frick at all


Pretty sure it’s the latter. I think the message boards are feeding their own narrative at this point.

And probably a touch of Autism in there somewhere.
Votes have been getting bought for much less for a loooong time.
Solid 1. We’re at a hinge point, but it doesn’t hang on getting Kiffin.
I can say with confidence that Kiffin will not least LSU into the Vaught next year.

Just curious, were you a pro supr in the Air Force? You sound like a superintendent. No offense meant, I was a pilot scheduler for a few years. The way you talk reminds me of some of those conversations I had mediating between maintenance and my boss.

I believe they got dealt the shittiest hand of any pilots with regard to go/no go decisions in a long time. They should have aborted. It’s nice to sit on my couch and say what they should’ve done.

I would have done the same thing they did. I think our general philosophy with regard to go/no go decisions failed these baws. To abort in that situation would have gone against everything they’ve been taught as transport pilots. If it’s as appears they did it by the book. They seem to have hit V1 and continued.

Aviate, navigate, communicate.

While I agree that’s a basic rule of flying any airplane, that was out the window in this case. I think they were the one in a million unfortunate souls that experienced the worst V1 cut of all time.

Would have been like the Concorde where the wing deteriorates


Exactly. Catastrophic damage that we don’t know the extent of yet.

In his video he points out the possible compressor stall on the rear engine thanks to all the FOD from the number one engine the first few seconds.


Came here to post this exact video. I’d been waiting on his response all day. Blancolirio is the best YouTube aviation incedent investigator.

I think he’s pretty dead on here. #1 separated and FOD’d out #2. Shitty situation. Even if #2 had kept running, what would have become of the fire on the left wing? Depending on what the engine took with it(shut off valves), there could be fuel and hydraulic fluid still being dumped on that fire. Perfect storm for structural failure later in flight. I think these guys were damned from the moment they hit V1.

Thank you for clarifying

Yeah man.
Flames coming out of an engine is not a flameout. A flameout is a loss of thrust. No idea if that’s the case in this crash.

Gonna need a grand slam hire obviously. I feel like we’re doomed to five years of mediocrity at this point.

I gave my invites away, but see my previous post. The free version is a joke. I scoured discord for a few hours before I got one. You too can find one there, but I consider it a waste of time in hindsight.
I got a code a week ago. The videos are OBVIOUSLY ai with lots of guardrails. I’m not paying $200\month for the version that doesn’t look fake and has real horsepower.
