James Willis new Defensive Analyst

[GeauxCajuns]

And the only one of these coaches that were ever discussed with a riff between them was Willis.

thats just not true.

If it was that serious he would be fired, with cause. If he was winning nobody would care...it’s serious because he is failing and people want him gone. If he was in the top 25 the same people would be defending him to the haters.

Like Tim Beckman right?
Or Mike Lenogren?
Or Ken Wilson?

All HUGE "winners" and got away with murder. Give me a break.
I'm not accusing Hudspeth of total player mistreatment, but you're downplaying a situation that you know nothing about.

Then sing for us little birdie..

Impossible to convince him, but every single one of these guys, with the exception of Smith and Stewart were in or are in better situations after they left and both of them were fired.

Jay P5 OC vs G5 OC--Promotion
Rebowe HC at FCS vs position coach at G5 FBS--Promotion
Whitt P5 vs G5 same position--Promotion
Willis NFL position coach vs G5 DC--Promotion
Wallerstedt G5 Position coach vs G5 DC--Promotion
Stewart FIRED at UL, now DC at FCS (downgrade but again you were fired), lucky to still be a DC at the D1 level
Smith FIRED at UL, now DC at FCS (downgrade but again you were fired)lucky to be a DC at the D1 level

Coaching business is tough, you try to better yourself at every turn. The guys above with the exception of Smith and Stewart did. Can not control what happens after that. Willis did not get fired because of ability, the Saint D sucked, most of the coaches were fired. Vince Lombardi could have been coaching and it would not have made a difference.

Jay P5 OC vs G5 OC--Promotion
Rebowe HC at FCS vs position coach at G5 FBS--Promotion (Was not going to be retained by HUD)
Whitt P5 vs G5 same position--Promotion
Willis NFL position coach vs G5 DC--Promotion
Wallerstedt G5 Position coach vs G5 DC--Promotion (He was DC here. LATERAL MOVE)
Stewart FIRED at UL, now DC at FCS (downgrade but again you were fired), lucky to still be a DC at the D1 level (Publicily thrown under the bus)
Smith FIRED at UL, now DC at FCS (downgrade but again you were fired)lucky to be a DC at the D1 level)

The fact is he should have been fired with cause after the sanctions. He has floundered ever since then. He will be fired when we go 3-9.

no problem with this.

Exactly, all the other soap opera crap blurs this FACT right here. Not every person will always like their boss, that’s not some new concept to life. Production and a clean program is what matters. I doubt every person that works for Nick Saban hangs out with him on the weekend.

Saban doesn’t run a clean program either. He’s just not at a G5.

If you remember, as Jay Johnson was leaving for greener pastures, the HUD STEAMROLLER was in full force, rolling over Jay because of our horrible QB play. Trust me, Jay was ready to get out of that hot mess.
I have never heard Hud take blame for anything bad that has happened to HIS team, especially losses. In my mind, that's a losers mentality!

[Hark Mudspeth]

He uses the rules and advantages in front of him, I’m not gonna put that on him. I don’t think there is one single program in the country that is “clean” you either have been caught or you haven’t...and obviously different levels of dirty.

[Frenchie35]

You either win or you get fired. It’s as simple as that.

Looking for job rules:

UL Head Coach Rule No. 1: Don’t Lose
UL Head Coach Rule No. 2: See Rule No. 1
UL Head Coach Rule No. 3: Make sure you have a really, really big contract and buyout when you don’t follow Rules 1 and 2.

Something that seems to escape many here on RP. Saunders was the fall guy, but people either don't know or don't want to know that he helped a number of athletes get eligible including Elijah McGuire. It wasn't just the few we were sanctioned for in the end.
