Louisiana Football Coaching Search

[CajunVic]

Think back 4 years ago . . . the ink was not yet dry on Pry and Napier was the coach the next day . . . until the fat lady sings, nobody is the coach of the Louisiana football team . . . unless you heard it from my lips, its probably not true . . .

Glad Pry finally got his head coaching position as he was given a solid last time around . . .

I think we'll be closer to naming legitimate candidates if we think about what Dr. Maggard might do or is looking for as opposed to who we want.

And, while he may not have specifically said something in a press conference, every hire he's made has a good moral compass.

Character matters. In fact, I believe that's the biggest thing with Dr. Maggard.

Jay: anyone you think we should add or remove from the current list?

I would remove anyone with perceived past character issues unless they can prove otherwise.

But honestly, we are going to have, what...100 applicants or more for this job.

And Maggard will interview probably five or six.

Billy Napier came out of nowhere. The next coach might, as well.

Just from the WAY outside looking in, I think Jay Johnson is the guy that I see that fits the profile the best. And I think I would be good with that hire if it actually happens.

I think I will wait for the white smoke to come from Dr Maggards office.

Jay Johnson would be a excellent choice.

Huge fan of Jay Johnson. He’s a super coordinator. I don’t think he’s a HC.

Before we start dismissing Lebby.. If we automatically eliminated any coach that’s been around some sort of scandal or impropriety, we’d have a very short list. I won’t pretend like I got that name from Maggard, but I did get it from 2 different people in his orbit. I fully expect Jeff Lebby to get an interview; as I do Pete Golding.

We shall see.

Who is responsible for providing airport reports? This should already have started. There could have already been activity that RP needs to monitor.

Where the hell is Dave Schulz when we need him!

I love the idea of Jeff Lebby

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.

Connection through time with Missouri. Alex Grinch and Josh Henson as well.
