Important Position Opening UL Football

Anyone know the story here...

Here's a little history for our fans. The reason people leave here from this position is the system of recruiting Billy Napier brought in. All four that held the same position have gone on to P5 jobs. The system is fine, others know it.


Ryan Trichel - Auburn-Missouri
William Peagler - Michigan St, Florida, Arizona NFL
Jacob LaFrance- Florida
Will Myers- Georgia

You are correct Billy had a great system and a great processes in which he ran his program. He learned from arguably the best who’s ever done it. That is why it completely befuddles me that the first thing the new young head coach did when he got the job is changed several things in the proven Saban created process, to things that went much softer on his players. We hired him to keep the system in place. First thing he did was made major changes. Just one of those things that I’ll guess I’ll never understand. Maybes mike knows better than Nick?

Your assertion that Desormeaux went softer on his players has nothing to do with player evaluation and projection of athletes, and putting together a recruiting board. That has not changed under Coach Desormeaux. In fact, the recruiting class that you were constantly questioning and bashing on this board is the very one that helped Myers get the Georgia position.

How about giving it a rest for a change?

Did you expect Des to not change anything. Usually when someone takes over they tweak things and put their own spin on things.

Ok. I’ll give it a rest. As long as you don’t deny that over all when you look at this class as a whole, compared to Napiers classes and who else offered and who we were recruiting against, this class wasn’t in the same league as Napiers by those standards alone.

I’ll go on a limb here and guess that the young man got the job at Ga because of some contact he made along the way at ole miss or else where, more than that one recruiting class did. I highly doubt Ga looked at that class and said this kid is a must get solely because of who signed in the 2023 class.

No. But don’t understand some of the basic structural discipline changes that were made.

No. But don’t understand some of the basic structural discipline changes that were made.

Could he have relaxed some of the rules to lessen the chance kids leave the program and enter the portal?

If he did that then he’s lost his program. That’s what you would refer to as the inmates running the asylum. Any coach that changes his discipline practices because he’s scared someone might leave is going to fail and should just quit now.

What good is it to complain about something if you don't have a way to fix it?

So, let's fix it.
