Re: SEC - Conference Discussion
They inquired but there were no "negotiations" according to LSU. Doesn't matter, Jimbo stays where he belongs for now and Les wins the SEC next year.

Re: SEC - Conference Discussion
Next year will be one of Bama's deepest teams ever. I would be shocked if we didn't repeat in ATL.

Re: SEC - Conference Discussion
Sounds like a repeat of Auburn's entourage secretly flying Lowder's private jet to offer Petrino the job while Tubby was still coaching. Tubby went undefeated the next year, BTW.

Re: SEC - Conference Discussion
Les Miles reportedly fired. Nick Saban is now the so-called "Dean of SEC Coaches."

Re: SEC - Conference Discussion
Saban will only stay at Bama a couple of years. Three tops.
Sorry to hear about Miles. He was a lot like Mark Richt. Fabulous recruiter. Won a ton of games. Usually highly ranked and feared around the SEC. Even won a Natty, unlike Richt. But never could live up to the high expectations he created for himself.
LSU went from a preseason top five to firing their coach in less than a month.

Re: SEC - Conference Discussion
Yes, it does make me chuckle when I remember all the people who assured me Saban was a one and done.
I liked Les. A lot.

Les will raise grand babies and do some spots with ESPN if I had to guess.

Re: SEC - Conference Discussion
SEC network or a place on Gamedag? I hat to see Les dismissed. LSU will need to make an excellent hire to improve. Have they named an interim or are they going straight for Coach Saban?

And as a side note, the scroll on ESPN says ND has fired VanGkrder.

I resemble that remark sir.AlabamAlum wrote:Yes, it does make me chuckle when I remember all the people who assured me Saban was a one and done.
I see Orgeron is the interim. He was an up-and-comer once, but didn't do well as HC at Ole Miss. I doubt he's the heir apparent.
I'm thinking Art Briles.

Re: SEC - Conference Discussion
I just saw that. Fired Miles, Cameron and the Ogre is interim.
No more picking on the LSU coach for nonsensical comments, it's now unintelligible comments.

Re: SEC - Conference Discussion
I didn't know Van Gorder was at ND. I'm amazed he wound up at such a prestigious program. Looks like did as well at ND as he did at Auburn. Maybe the Irish will replace him with Ted Roof or Ellis Johnson.GBJs wrote:And as a side note, the scroll on ESPN says ND has fired VanGkrder.

Re: SEC - Conference Discussion
The idea of Herman at LSU putting all those fabulous receivers to good use is disturbing.
