We are going to laugh so hard at LSU.

Of course when they inevitably make their disappointing hire they'll say they were joking and never believed the Saban thing...but look at them...they actually think Saban would even entertain a return to Corndog U at 74. ??

Y'all are so defensive over this, it's hilarious.

Because when it comes to basketball, we love to live in the past.

No offense or disrespect to you guys because I totally understand the back-and-forth, especially in the context of Kiffin, but IMO the Florida vs LSU conversation is simply going around in circles as Florida and LSU are both great jobs.

Yeah, my bad. Didn't mean to hijack.

3 major schools. 3 times the NFL players. Seems like its pretty much the same thing.

I wasn't saying Louisiana is better. My posts have been in response to the following:

No one talks about how the state of Louisiana when it comes to recruiting

That is an absolutely hilariously bad take.

Do you have any stats showing kids from Florida flop more than Louisiana?

Not saying that. The two states are certainly comparable to recruiting. I was commenting on the cave man sentence from earlier that Louisiana isn't a well-known recruitment hotbed. And supporting an argument with some Rivals top 250 or whatever is just dumb. So many 5 stars roll into a school and are never heard of again, while 3 stars become NFL starters. Per capita NFL numbers are proof enough that Louisiana is right up there with California and Florida.

Bama fans are secure with the legacy Saban left in Tuscaloosa and.would not cry like the whiny bitches in Baton Rouge have been doing since 2007.

I'll be the first to admit we've been whiny about Saban since he left. But acting like Bama fans would be any different is absolutely hilarious.

To argue LA isn't one of the best recruiting pipelines in the country is absolutely silly.

---

Not to mention, top 250 high school rankings are worth little to nothing. Look at NFL per capita and it isn't even close. I'd rather be landing *actual* NFL-caliber talent, rather than a kid who's ranking was overinflated by some recruiting website, and he ends up being a flop.

He's doing his best Huey Long cosplay and failing miserably at it.

I don't believe you.

Yeah, UF is a great job. I married into a UF family, so I'm pretty well versed on the situation. I'm in no way saying that the two are worlds apart. In fact, there are a lot of aspects which make UF more appealable to recruits. Personally, I think the institutional support and the ability to lock down the recruiting in the state of Louisiana are what tip LSU. But that's probably just me being a homer. With NIL, locking down the state may mean absolutely nothing anymore, honestly.
