This may seem out of left field (pun intended), but has Cal State Fullerton really fallen off that much? I know they’re not the powerhouse they once were, but not even Top 100? They’ve still made 1 CWS and 3 other Regionsls in the last decade. Army, SEMO, Lamar and Stetson are ahead of them now? Ehh.

My fave.

I’ve viewed Kiffin as very high-functioning autistic for a few years (not that there’s anything wrong with that). What many people see as socially awkward and detached can also be signs of neurodivergence. The laser focus on football, cerebral and heady, emotionless, ignoring social norms.

If that’s the case, who knows what the pressure and demands of being the head coach at LSU might do to a man.

I drove to work at 6 am in Baldwin county, Daphne/Fairhope. Normal commute. No limbs down, power, hell, the roads were dry because it’s still breezy.

I think the key difference is that Auburn has competitive losses and Arkansas doesn’t

That didn’t sound right to me. And it isn’t. Pittman was able to blow a LOT of close games. Now if add 2026 so far, this would certainly change. But, anyway.

Grok:

The total combined margin of defeat across all Arkansas and Auburn losses from the 2021–2025 seasons is 817 points (Arkansas 406, Auburn 411).
Margins are the absolute point difference in each loss (including bowls). Head-to-head games are counted for the losing side only.
Arkansas loss margins by season:
• 2021 (4 losses): 60 (Georgia 37, Ole Miss 1, Auburn 15, Alabama 7)
• 2022 (6): 55 (Texas A&M 2, Alabama 23, Mississippi State 23, Liberty 2, LSU 3, Missouri 2)
• 2023 (8): 108 (BYU 7, LSU 3, Texas A&M 12, Ole Miss 7, Alabama 3, Mississippi State 4, Auburn 38, Missouri 34)
• 2024 (6): 85 (Oklahoma State 8, Texas A&M 4, LSU 24, Ole Miss 32, Texas 10, Missouri 7)
• 2025 (10): 98 (Ole Miss 6, Memphis 1, Notre Dame 43, Tennessee 3, Texas A&M 3, Auburn 9, Mississippi State 3, LSU 1, Texas 15, Missouri 14)
Auburn loss margins by season:
• 2021 (7): 68 (Penn State 8, Georgia 24, Texas A&M 17, Mississippi State 9, South Carolina 4, Alabama 2, Houston 4)
• 2022 (7): 121 (Penn State 29, LSU 4, Georgia 32, Ole Miss 14, Arkansas 14, Mississippi State 6, Alabama 22)
• 2023 (7): 103 (Texas A&M 17, Georgia 7, LSU 30, Ole Miss 7, New Mexico State 21, Alabama 3, Maryland 18)

Nancy is one of three finalists to purchase the NBA expansion team in Las Vegas. Projected purchase price? $12-13 bln. That’s billion. Billion.

I didn’t assure anyone of anything on the WW post. I was just stating what the LSU website says. Still does. Someone might want to nudge the admin. It’s not a great look.

As for new HCs I'm looking more towards folks who have been juggernauts on the FCS/G7 level. Not folks who had a good season, people who have won consistently for years.

I couldn’t agree more with this. It’s what I was saying last round. We need a coach with a history of winning. Conference titles, bowls, maybe even a NC at a lower level. That was my biggest problem with Silverfield. He was a below-average coach in the AAC. Slowly destroying whatever Fuentes and Norvell had built. Hell, he was a season away from being squarely on the hot seat, if not fired. Memphis fans were thrilled to be rid of him. Baffling hire.

Pretty cocky for a coach with FOUR players listed on his roster currently.
