Louisiana Football Coaching Search

Dr. Maggard knows exactly what he's looking for. I don't think this is going to be a long search.

Hope so. I don't think we can afford a long search.

If you want an idea, look at the track record.

Dr. Maggard, regardless of the sport, has looked for the same qualities.

A history of winning
Reputation as a relentless recruiter.
A person of integrity.
A person with a good moral compass.
Doesn't necessarily have to have head coaching experience.

Now, as we talk about a replacement, start with that. And, my money is on someone with a background as an offensive coach.

And, as far as names are concerned, the first time I ever heard the name Billy Napier was when it was reported he was offered the job.

Man, I was looking forward to 6 weeks of spin the bottle.

It's my understanding that most of the assistants are staying with you guys. I hope that helps. : )

Thanks for the comment. Hope Billy wins big for you folks.

Tim Leger and let’s keep the present system going. Keep the running backs coach and Desormeaux.

Desormeaux was a beast when way back when he was QB. Hope we can keep him around.

I don’t care if the guy is an “offense” guy or a “defense” guy…I want an organizational expert like CBN. We didn’t win because his offense was revolutionary. In fact I think our defense largely carried us especially this year. We won because he knew how to run a program. Go find the next guy like that.

Whoever the heck Nick Saban sees as the next Billy Napier. He did a darn good job last time, there is no reason to doubt him at this point.

Amen.

Curious how many of the current FL staff will he keep. I believe the Interm coach will stay.

To be honest I don't see him keeping any of them as actual coaches, analysts maybe. Knox SUCKS at recruiting but C-Rob is excellent at recruiting. The players want him to keep Coach Savage who's our S&C coach and yes that's his real name.
