We thought the coaching carousel had passed us by...

If Bill O'Brien decides to jump to the NFL, that leaves Penn State open...again. Dan Mullen was born in Pennsylvania and prolly grew up rooting for Penn State. Just like last year...this is a problem for us. If this domino falls, we are once again behind the 8-ball.

Hawk, I understand you concern and it would seem like the natural order of things. But putting this out on open thread only fuels the fire of those that used it against Huspeth in recruiting.

I think a lot of UL fans are bigger on Hud than the rest of the college football world. Two years at a nobody school (reality is a _____), even with a good record, isn't enough. He has at least another year before even the low level BCS schools take interest.

Ok, Hawk, now you've got to do stadiums!

Tell that to Hugh Freeze.

Of course UL fans are bigger on Hud than the rest of the college football world. But, BCS schools have already shown "interest". Hud's name has circulated at many of the BCS HC openings, starting with his first year with this "nobody". There are other candidates besides Hud and they were selected... simple as that. I think we dodged a bullet this past year. Hud isn't a national BCS football commodity. He is a regional BCS football commodity.

And to call UL a "nobody"... but say that one more year at the "nobody"... when that one more year results aren't even in... somehow translates into the start of interest taken from lower BCS schools... is, quite frankly, an eggheaded statement.

Well he starts out being LOCO as his name implied....

Tim Brando said it today about Nick Saban. It is good to have your name out there regardless of your intents. He called it brandishing your brand. It is good that Hud keeps getting mentioned, we just hope that it is a little longer before the brand is called up.

what about kiffen?

I think Gruden would be more open to our situation.. Maybe T-Joe can get him on the phone??

Nick was brandishing his brand every single off season while at LSU.

Nice to see he never changed.

"Brandishing your brand" is just as much for recruiting as it is for your next gig, but you need a good agent to pull it off right.

Guano (via Spanish, ultimately from the Quechua wanu, meaning "dung") is the feces and urine of seabirds, cave-dwelling bats, and seals.

But I've already messed with him in the past about that...

Is he gonna forward the call to David Walker's fax machine???
