Strength &conditioning not ST

Couch is the ST coach, Hocke is the S&C coach.

I don't think its negativity. Anybody here who has been a fan for sometime probably carries a very favorable opinion of Mike. We were all fans of his and I love that he's on staff. However, I do believe that this questioning this hire is justified without being negative. After Hud? I get it. But to follow up on 3 of our best years ever with the amount of momentum we have nationally I don't get it. Yeah, he may be successful here but nobody truly knows how it will go until we get down the road but I think its fair to first guess now rather than second guess later.

The guy who was successful here for the past three years said hire CMD . . .

So, what is Mike's resume'? Surely no one should mind showing off his resume'.

He does not need a resume anymore, he is gainfully employed as the HC for Louisiana . . .

I haven't heard him say that.

I haven't read him say that.

I know I won't read or hear him say anything to the contrary.

Repeat his hire will require state level approval.

You know he didn't look at his resume.

He lived it.

Trust the bird . . .

Lot of crossover with the “Mike’s not ready” and the “Levi is a bad QB” crowd.

The men who led us to the most successful 4 year run in our football history disagree with y’all on both. Ima roll with them baws.

Levi is a bad QB, we have years of film to prove it, some not even 24 hours old. Des might be ready, he might not. We are going to find out.

Oh, doubt that will be a stumbling block . . . Lots of noise here but don’t think it will rise to a petition against . . . Cheese eaters have no clout . . .

I understand the concern. It's a legitimate concern considering this team has finished in the top 25 the past few seasons. So let's not make it personal because people question the hire. This program has had a history of nepotism when it comes to coaching hires and athletic directors.

Now I personally will support the hire because I have no questions about Mike Desormeaux the man. We could have done worse in hiring coaches that have won, but have questionable character.

Mike Desormeaux will have to prove he's the right man for the job, much like Deggs has to right now. But the cULture and system are in good hands.
