Is that on the insider board?

While I didn’t like it, never blamed her one bit for leaving. She went from pretty much paying for the “privilege” to coach at USL/UL to being actually paid for her time and results.

It’s not a criticism of her. Still I believe in the question of programs she left a better program than LSU at that moment. The P of course stands for privileged in P5. She could have also taken several other P5 jobs before LSU.

Two other coaches in Cajuns history that left you may want to consider leaving for better jobs:
Bobby Paschal from USL to South Florida...many may consider this a lateral move.
Jim Hatfield from USL to Miss. St. I would consider that a step up from the Southland to the SEC?

You are correct. I remember Hatfield leaving after coaching the Cajuns back from the death penalty in the mid 70's.

Yes it is on our insider board but don't stress to much over it because they have been more wrong than right in the past when it came to hiring football coaches.

If he does come to UF, I am sure he will make sure somebody on his staff will stay and coach that he feels will continue the success like Bob Stoops did at Oklahoma.

Quick question did Coach Napier really punch Dabo Sweeney in the face? That's the rumor on our forums and people are jumping on board just based on that alone.

Ironically it's never been discussed here.

When I read that the other day, it was the first I'd heard of the encounter.

Same. The first time I heard about it was this week. I read that Dabo was calling plays during a game that countered what Coach Napier was calling. He didn’t agree with Napier’s play calling. This lead to confusion on the field and the “disagreement” after the game.

Yes

I have to admit, he wasn't my first choice, we've gone to that Saban tree and it, well, didn't work out very well. It looks like he actually learned and put the structure into practice. Mullen was a big disappointment, he was on Meyer's NC team and resembled NOTHING like that staff and their MO. I've worried about his ability to recruit since year 2. Our ST's have been non existent as well as defense. SMH. I'll be happy with CBN, if we are lucky enough to get him.

Oh gawd. From your lips to God's ears. So tired of them. Their band mocked our chomp at the end of the shoe throwing game last year. We should have beaten them last year and this year. My sis n law and brother n law went to LSU. I used to like them because we lived there the first 4 years we were married. Actually had season tix., but I'm over it and their cry baby AD
