They are a different team this year. They actually have a running game (when they call it) with a very good 5th year senior QB, and their defense is pretty good. I was at the Houston game Saturday and really liked what I saw against a very good Houston defense, but the real test for them will be this Saturday against OSU.
Assistant head coach at PSU is hard to beat. Money wise he is in great shape over there. But UL has one longshot intangible.

Sometimes that can be worth money.

There are great coaches at all levels. Will Hall was at a division 2 school. I don't care if our next coach comes from the FCS, D2 or an asst from another FBS program. The key is finding the right guy. The guy who will build a staff that he trust and will allow for them to do their jobs.
I don't believe that guy has to be from the south but he has to have someone on staff who has a network in the south that will allow him to recruit here. He doesn't even have to be a great X and O's guy but again he better have those guys on staff.
They also need to be able to do more with less. Build systems that allow us to have less talent than P5 schools but go in and be able to compete with them.
Now I'm just rambling so peace out.
