One or two RP people getting wound up about a candidate with "LSU ties" just isn't a story.

    I'm with others that I like this hiring process to be discreet until we hear who they've chosen. If we weren't upset with the people chosen to evaluate the candidates, we shouldn't get that upset with their choice. I think the hire, regardless of who it is, is inconsequential until we actually see them in action in our program.
    Good point on the selection committee, which seems legit and includes the guidance of Alden, then the one they pick should be a good one.

    I take back everything I said about the LSU guy. After reading bios of the other two "supposed" candidates, he seems to have the goods.

    That's a two edged sword. Good hire maybe, good old boy network maybe. He's, on paper and experience, well qualified.

    He's my personal favorite because he's worked with Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys are the elite brand in football, and one of the elite brands in all sports. Still worried about local ties. This university always finds reasons why the local ties somehow are the best overall.

    Seems like a case could be made for an extended "good ole boy hire" if one of the two finalist are selected. I'm okay with it if he comes in and crushed it.

    The guy from OU (and originally from Lafayette) would be far from a "good ole boy" hire. He's almost 30 years removed from Lafayette. His tie is Terry Don Phillips, and that's a positive.

    That said, he was told he isn't going to get the job. There are 2 finalists and he isn't one of them.
