Louisiana Football Coaching Search

So, just wanted to start a list of the names being thrown around the most:

Glen Schumann: d/c at Georgia. Another Saban student, young: 31
Dan Lanning: another co-d/c at Georgia
Josh Gattis: o/c at Michigan 

Pete Golding: Bama d/c, another Saban disciple
Patrick Toney: current d/c, the only insider being considered
Jay Johnson: QB coach, Michigan State
Doug Nussmeier: QB coach Dallas Cowyboys

So far I like Golding the best.....seems to be the most like CBN.....or Doug Nussmeier.

Bama fans hate Golding.

I would think those UGA guys next jobs will be P5 head coaching jobs.

Nice list. I will say I have lots of Alabama friends who have been fans long before Saban and they cannot stand Pete Golding. I guess when you’re spoiled to perfection, good just ain’t good enough lol. Anyway I’d like to add Rob Sale to your list. It just makes too much sense for him to come home and finish what he and Billy started.

I thought I had Sale. I added him now.

Maybe Turbine cam do some magic and move the list, or sticky-it? That's what they did on tigger pooping and it made it nice to try to keep up with all of the potential candidates.

OLB and DL will be the biggest gap. OL will be equal to what we have talent wise and QB will improve.

Based upon what empirical data do you know QB will be better? Fields has thrown what, 30 passes in his career. Sounds like back up quarterback syndrome. Look, I hope he is the greatest thing since Mitchell, but we just don’t know.

Bama fans hate Golding.

Saban went off about it last week about how spoiled the Bama fans are

Not saying Golden won't be the guy, or isn't a candidate. But Iwas told by several former coaches that in their opinion he is not a fit in Lafayette.

I think they can be. The good thing about a Billy getting such a high profile job, it shows they can come here and move up quick.

Schumann is interesting to me bc he has been with Saben/Smart since he was 18. Known for being highly intelligent.

You are correct about how significant it is that CBN moved from here to a great P5 job. My thing about Schumann is his youth, and being just 31 I find it hard to believe that he could currently get a P5 HC job. But dang, if he could come here be as successful as CBN, he could tehn get a P5 HC job before he is 40.
