Scott Prather said yesterday that Coach and family left for a well deserved vacation after the game. Probably be back when school starts.

Went down this Mike Leach rabbit hole, and I picked up this nugget:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Louisiana Tech head coach Skip Holtz "has interest" in the head coach opening at Mississippi State, per sources. <br><br>He finished with a 10-3 record this season and a win over Miami in the Independence Bowl.</p>— Brad Logan (@BradLoganCOTE) <a href="https://twitter.com/BradLoganCOTE/status/1214630210114670593?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 7, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
So the coach of one Louisiana G5 school turns down repeated overtures to coach a P5 school, and another one can't wait to leave his G5 program for said P5 job.
Perfect. 😏
Elitedawgs about to get after ole Bert
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">To the Mississippi State fans asking again about Cajuns coach Billy Napier: We take you back to our tweet from four days ago.<br><br>It still applies. <br><br>Napier has rebuffed multiple efforts from the Bulldogs, including another inquiry today.<a href="https://t.co/EUNyvfHwOL">https://t.co/EUNyvfHwOL</a></p>— Ross Dellenger (@RossDellenger) <a href="https://twitter.com/RossDellenger/status/1214765903600111616?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 8, 2020</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Officially Leach

Pretty awesome....very much sums it up.
Of course, now they never really wanted BN in the first place.
Will the real Bert Stare please stand up?
DocRaginCajun used to call it "Starkpatch." (for you youngsters, that is a reference to Lil Abner comic strip that was set in a hillbilly town call Dogpatch.)
With the pirate and joey freshwater coaching in the same state as rivals, nothing could go wrong here .
MAT's final......ER......BERT's final post today said that offers were being extended to, in order:
1. Napier
2. Leach
3. Sark
There ARE dawgpeeps giving him credit for being "right"....:rolleyes:
At present, I counted 11 different threads about Leach--some people happy, but MANY are pizzed, and expecting this to blow up in their faces! AAARRRRRR!!
Between their board and the idiot tweeters, this was great entertainment for the past few days! :D
Some great quotes on ED post-mortem. The reviews are starting to pour in...
"I agree with you. We don't know for a fact if Bert is a master troll, but when I read what he posted, it is more likely than not that he isn't."
"I never said he was a master troll. I believe he is a State fan who got some information and then got way ahead of himself and just kept doubling down because he really wanted to be able to say he was right. What I am confident of is that he no longer has any kind of inside information and was never really right about anything but wants to save face as much as he can. "
"I'd love to see a poll on whether or not people believe Bert or not. I don't think I'm alone "
"later Bert. Enjoy Nafoom and your rebleshark buddies as they melt over this homerun hire"
"Lock it and put it in the national archive in DC to show future generations how crazy (me included) SEC football fans can be. You're still my boy Bert. Hope you hang around."
