So earlier this evening the other board either shut down their coaching search forum or hid it from non logged in users. I don’t have account there so not sure.

Odd for sure coupled with rumors flying a few hours later

Yall are missing the point on Morris, and others like him for that matter.

I don’t think any of the guys associated with him were highly ranked or heavily recruited by top programs. Who gives a shite if they aren’t NFL ready their rookie season if they are producing in college?

And it appears he continues to find guy that excel in his system. I don’t know if he’d make a great HC here but no denying he can produce results at QB.

So who’s making the call on who we interview and how they stack up on the short list? Cause if that’s the actual list I’m impressed/ shocked.

I believe Franklin will be another Bert. He doesn’t run an out scheming offense, and he doesn’t seem willing to adapt.

Admittedly I don’t know much about Franklin but I get what you are saying.

Looking at another 2 win season it probably sounds ridiculous to be questioning if a guy who made the CFP just last year is the right hire. I haven’t looked into why his record is so abysmal against highly ranked teams, it’s concerning on paper though. I’m not sold on him, primarily because he may end up with a Jimbo type contract with a huge buyout.

On the flip side his interview on College Gameday was interesting. Seems he may have a chip on his shoulder with a lot left to prove. His pre-NIL work at Vandy was impressive and frankly better than what Pittman was able to do here.

I’d be good with Golesh from a “fit” perspective because we need someone who can scheme/win without equal talent. Big risk though given the state of our program. Article on ESPN today about Texas Tech and the work their GM has done scouting players further highlights how far behind we are in all areas.

Hope this turns out well but if history is any indication this ends up being like the Stan Heath hire. Making a “safer” hire from an optics perspective vs just getting the right guy and saying screw the optics/risk.

Someone tell me why Silverfield would do better than Norvell or Fuenette did after leaving Memphis? I really don’t know anything about him.

I’d take Lincoln Riley and wouldn’t think twice about it. He’s still young. Saban didn’t win his first title till he was in his 50’s. Look at how Kiffin has grown as a coach. Kiffin’s teams don’t play great defense, he hasn’t won anything of note yet (I think he will at some point) and everyone here is pissed we didn’t land him last time around, myself included.

Not sure why we write off so many younger guys who’ve have success and assume they won’t continue to adapt to what it takes to win a NC.

What’s gonna be funny is amid all this speculation and it was Lashlee the whole time. Wouldn’t shock me.

Would be on par but I sure hope not. I’d rather give BP 3-4 years and re-evaluate the market then.

What I’ve noticed the last 4 weeks:
- Petrino seems more comfortable/ engaging with media or coaches shows than his previous tenure. Could be for show but I think he’s changed his personality some.
- Still a hardass on the field
- he’s knows what it takes to build a program. His lack of having a good defense is overblown.
- lastly he’s still an elite level play caller. A lot of our miscues have been poor execution or talent. IMO he’s a guy who done more with less when you look at the talent we’ve had.


Frankly one of my only concerns with him is will he go out and get a highly rated QB or will he try to find a diamond in the rough. Sometimes feels like to wants to find an under the radar QB and turn them into something no one else expected as a way of flexing his ability to develop QB’s.

If LSU didn’t have an opening the CCB would get more diverse traffic. As it stands it’s primarily about LSU ( I know this is a LSU board). Thus probably the reason many still post on other boards.

I assume those are electric? And likely very heavy if they are spec’d out with other gear or armor. Meaning the battery will drain faster.

I really hope the batteries die on the highway during an extended high speed chase…just for the hilarious fallout and memes.
