Mike Desormeaux for Louisiana Head Coach

[Boomer]

I’m pretty sure Bicky Rustle interviewed posthumously. Rest In Peace bickmyster, bickantor, bicknasty, my old friend.

…..ok let’s talk bucks….anybody know the salary breakdowns of the top 5-6 guys on the staff……how much would a new HC get……thinking as a HC that Dez could get $800-$1mill…..the buy out and extra Coach money could get Some good assistants……Btw nobody answered my question of the higher ranked as assistant HC or coordinator!

Jay Johnson
Rob Sale
Jeff Lebby !!
Pete Golding
MD
Will be pumped with anyone of these guys especially MD getting a shot but would be WOW by !!

Great list but we can't afford any of those guys. What is your two cents on Mike D?

We were going to pay Napier $3.2, we can afford them.

This is the dumbest, waste of time thread of all time. None of you mother____ers have any idea who is going to be the next coach. Keep guessing you stupid ____s

That's pretty much my feelings... Mags is a magician. You see one hand while the other fools your ___. I don't fear losing a coach. Losing our AD terrorizes me.

I’ve decided l personally want mike. He moves to HC and keeps as many Assistants here as possible and hope we don’t miss a beat.

We aren’t fixing anything. this hire is different than when Napier was hired, we are in a different place. Mike checks all the boxes that Maggard mentioned for this hire.

Maybe he does check all of Maggard boxes. I’m no AD, but one of the boxes would be to have at least run the offensive or defensive side of the ball at the college level, if I were creating them.

[KajunKrazy]

Maggard convinced CBN to keep CMD when he was hired. CBN evaluated CMD for four years and now is here convincing Maggard to make CBN HC. What is shocking about that . . .

Is it just me? Every time I see CBN and CMD it looks like some fake news organization.

Future Q: If all the coaches want Mike, will he have the gumption to fire any of them if need be?

It’s real . . . one left a hero . . . one may just stay a hero . . . imagine a university having the opportunity to make 2 Robe type hires in one’s lifetime . . . golden

We are in hiring mode right now . . . Keep eye on the ball . . .

From Dr Maggard:

Our attention will now be given to a thorough search process that will allow us to identify the next Head Coach of Ragin' Cajuns Football. We will be committed to finding a coach who exemplifies the values of the University of Louisiana, the Department of Athletics, and the Cajun culture, an individual who prioritizes the academic success of our student-athletes, builds positive relationships with those he coaches, is a relentless recruiter, establishes tremendous rapport with Louisiana high school coaches, places a strong focus on player development, and is a proven winner. The #cULture has been established within our football program and its foundation is strong. Our next head coach will possess the ability to embrace this foundation, while continuing to strengthen it through the support of our leadership, fan base, and student-athletes.

Please identify what in this passage that CMD does not meet?

I’d be willing to bet there are more qualities than just what was put in this short statement. There has to be a level of coaching experience he looks for. Also where has Dez been a “proven winner” at the college level. He’s worked for coaches and coordinators that are proven winners. He needs to move up the latter a bit in order to prove he can win at this level. JMO
