I cringe at some of these candidates. Dave Clawson? We made fun of him like hell at UT, and he was run out of there on a rail.

LSU is easier to recruit.
1. Fan base is fanatical
2. Not near as strict as UF
3. Big time boosters
4. Not near as WOKE
5. Better facilities
6. Fuchs and UAA

But:

7. It's Louisiana not Florida
8. Top talent in So FL
9. The University has far less money
10. The state has far less money
11. Easy to compete for the NC...O did it, Les Miles did it...No Really

I added the numbers to facilitate discussion:

1. I am not sure it is more fanatical that UF's.
2. I did agree it might be academically a bit easier for recruiting even though everyone has special admits.
3. I doubt very much LSU has more or richer big time booster than UF.
4. Part of the reason Orgeron was fired was a wokeness issue, girl friends at practice, hitting on a woman at a gas station who was married to a board member???? Also with the investigation of Myles things could even woker there.
5. In what way are the LSU facilities better than the UF facilities?
6. Fuch is really just saying point 2 again. I am not sure how the UAA at UF is different than the UAA at LSU?
7. Agree.
8. Agree, but of course N.O. is much closer to LSU than So FL is to UF.
9. Agree.
10. Agree unless oil spike hurting tourism helping Louisiana.
11. In the West you can bet on 3 other programs trying all the time but in the east it is only 2 other programs consistently trying with the resources to challenge you. Of course this could all change with OU and UTx possibly joining the conference.

I think we should take a look at Brock Spack. Guy is a tough as nails coach, has taken lowly Illinois State to great heights including almost upsetting a Carson Wentz led North Dakota State in the National Championship game. He also has a killer stache
My new favorite after googling this guy

Brother,

Will you be okay because I'm not expecting much.

How long did it take to get a football facility?

His last name is tough…he’s a man with a non nonsense name and no nonsense stache
Just looked him up. His mustache is a manly stache... throwback to Howard Schnellenbergers. His last name is worrisome though. He should take up pipe smoking.

You wouldn’t say that to him face to stache
Probably not.

He one of a half dozen from the Tiller coaching tree. Very disciplined approach to coaching and emphasis on fundamentals. Really like his special team set up.

Just posted this in the other thread:

I just got some information that will thrill you Napier haters. LSU is down to two guys: Baylor's coach and Napier. If they want Napier, he's theirs. If they take the other guy, he likely comes here.

I have no idea how lousy our fallback options could be. Kiffin is not nor ever has been under consideration.
Heck, I'd take Danny Wuerffel as our new coach if they offered it to him. I'd feel better about him than some of these other clowns...

if it makes you feel any better so was Billy Napier. we just weren't paying that much attention to Clemson and Dabo versus Spurrier back then.

Well it all over the net...Bob Stoops wants no part of UF

He never wanted to come nor was he ever considered. It was just that dueche canoe bianchi making a sideways comment and then a bunch of internet message board morons and drunks like buddy martin and franz beard propagating it.
