Could there be a previous relationship between Dr. Maggard and Barry Odom? Odom is 45 years old with head coaching experience. He checks most of the boxes we are looking for and he has previously worked with Dr. Maggard at Missouri.
Assuming Lebby and Briles are out of consideration, these are my top candidates....
Ty Helton, y'all know how I feel.
Dan Lanning, DC of the baddest defense in the country, former Rec Coordinator, Bama ties. Texas ties.
Graham Harrell, offensive wizard, Texas ties.
Brian Johnson, offensive wizard, Texas ties. Mississippi ties. Florida ties. NFL QB coach.
Rob Sale.
What about Tom Herman?
I think what Jay mentioned about past history and staying away from coaches that have been on staff at programs that have had controversy with the NCAA investigations and other matters will not be hired at UL under this president is correct. I don't foresee Dr. Savoie signing off on Lebby or Briles.
Let's remember something. We aren't looking for a coach to "fix" something which means we don't need to look at people with baggage. There are many high character guys out there that can come in and take a successful program and keep them successful or even add to it.
We didn't fire a coach.
