Nevermind I was mistaken. Nansen does not actually carry that tag with us. -

Washington State appears to be finalizing a deal with the Mizzou OC instead of hiring Nansen (it has been down to those two). -

To my understanding things did not end well between Lake and PK. Their relationship quickly grew toxic after Lake became his boss and there was some conflict over who was responsible for the declining performance of that defense. It has been quite a few years now since then so who knows. Maybe the relationship could be repaired if they really wanted to make it work. The bigger concern with Lake is how much his players seemed to hate him. I'm talking Tom Herman levels of hatred by his players by the time he was fired. There were multiple public incidents involving physical altercations between Lake and his players, though they were very minor, but implications of many more behind the scenes. Part of why Washington fired him. Some of that stuff always gets overblown but there is enough smoke there I think we would probably avoid Lake. -

I've heard mixed. That old patterns did emerge at one point but that Nansen is one of the few people who actually told Sark he needs to chill the fuck out and got him to listen. Who knows how much if any of that is accurate though even when its coming from people directly connected to them. Nansen has certainly been as advertised when it comes to LB development, schematic contribution and recruiting. Tough person to replace though you would think Justin Wilcox is an obvious candidate (perhaps a lazy suggestion but I mean the connections with Sark are obvious and he also coaches LB). -

Washington State fans seem to think that Nansen is now the front runner for their job and picking up serious momentum to land it. Not a killer if he leaves but it would certainly suck. -

McMurphy just confirmed that Moore is fired for cause due to a sexual relationship with someone on his staff. There are further rumors it was a student intern / volunteer but haven't seen that confirmed that. Jfc. edit: inb4 "don't all sexual relationships involve someone on your staff?" -

You have to think Michigan will pull out of the bowl. That part of it really sucks if nothing else. Are they even going to be able to find some poor bastard 5-7 team willing to come play us in a bowl? It took like 10 tries before they found someone to play in Birmingham. -

Never said they were. I'm talking about when it came time for final decisions to be made there were multiple targets who would have made more at Texas in 2026 who decided to stick with LSU anyway. I am not talking about us attempting to match the bonuses they paid guys to stay throughout November or anything like that. edit: Just read my original comment again and get why you took it that way. To be clear~ the total amount these players would have made ultimately going to Texas or elsewhere was higher in some cases than what they are getting from LSU both in the short term as bonuses to stay committed during the replacement search and what they would make once actually at LSU. It wasn't just NIL keeping some of them on board. -

Hiring random nobodies with former connections to Rutgers is Sark's fetish. Don't kink shame. -

Having spoken to people who were involved in that we were not outbid by LSU for Anderson and Martinez. Perhaps you've heard differently but it would surprise me if so. Obviously they were paying out the ass to help hold things together but plenty of programs, including our own, were offering just as much for guys to leave during the turmoil. -

They actually were once he took over as interim coach. There is a reason LSU improved immediately and actually kept things close against Bama and OU down the stretch. He is also the one who kept that recruiting class from falling apart. -

Frank Wilson would be an incredible hire. There are potentially some questions about just how great he is at actually developing RBs but who gives a fuck? Go hire the best personal trainer for the position you can find and give them a non recruiting role on the coaching staff if you feel the need. What Wilson brings in terms of player morale / vibes, recruiting and even to an extent scheme is far beyond what you can get from all but maybe 3-4 other RB coaches out there. I'm not saying the Florida guy would be a bad hire but everything possible should be done to land Wilson first. One thing to keep in mind is that we will have that OC tag available if we fire Flood. Mostly bringing it up because people were asking why the hell would someone like Searels who is already at a great place like Georgia come here. He is making a little under 800K. We could easily justify doubling that if he is wearing the OC tag like Flood currently does. Not even saying that is who we would target in replacement or that we should but just keep in mind our poaching a potential replacement for Flood is made way easier by the fact we have the OC title and the associated huge pay bump to throw at guys even if they can't run an offense. -

Incorrect. The practice reports glazing Clark were this Spring after he returned from the injury. OTF wouldn't shut the fuck up about him and were convinced he was going to be a breakout start in 2026 and a solid justification for why we didn't do anything at RB in the Spring portal (despite many seeing an obvious need). -

I somehow missed that McDonald was one of those joining Kiffin at LSU. I had thought it announced he was staying at Ole Miss like Smith. Not sure wtf their insiders meant then when they were saying this week they expected both to stay on staff with a shifting of roles. Just isn't room. -

That LSU staff is going to be a headache to deal with. Sounds like they are keeping Corey Raymond and Peoples as well to go with Robinson (and Baker their DC of course). Those are all elite recruiters. On the offensive side the belief is both Frank Wilson and Hankton are staying as well. Not pissing down my leg or anything but it is just objectively going to be a much more difficult path towards pillaging their backyard as opposed to the last few cycles. I'm going to miss Kelly sabotaging all their efforts on an almost monthly basis.
