He has lots of positives and knows the terrain.

What's the thoughts on Golding? Did him and Toney ever work together, or they just both from the Ron Roberts tree?

HA! As I mentioned 4 years ago, My next door neighbor's wife is the sister of Brent Pry's wife. She just told me a minute ago at the mailbox "they regret not taking the UL job...."
Again, that is 2 degrees of hearsay so take it for what it is worth - I find it pretty funny.

True. True.

Can't take the job if he wasn't offered the job.

He just might have negotiated one day too long . . .

And if he checks all the boxes too and has more experience, why is Des a better candidate than Toney? Just because Des is a local boy? Thats really what this is about, is that he is "one of us". And that is why people feel like its USL'ing it. Because theres no 40 page thread on Toney, but there is on Des.

*edit - I also understand that just because I dont think he is ready, doesnt mean that he isnt. Shocking, but Ive been wrong before.

Assuming Jay Jonson applied. I’d also ask what boxes mike checks that he doesn’t? Jay was the coordinator here when des was a position coach. If the answer is simply mike was here with Napier. Mike won’t be able to come here and try to do some kind of role playing and be Napier. He has to be mike and do mike.

You are really opposed to CMD even being considered for HFC at Louisiana?
