I asked him directly is Tate going try to overrun Woodward and make him hire who he wants. He said no. He said Tate is all about winning and has thrown out some names but it’s not his hire. It’s Woodward’s.


As it should be. Hire the right guy, doesn't matter if he's a damn space alien.

Can't believe this topic has gotten so much play lately. Tate will talk a good game for appearances but deep down I feel he knows to stay out of it. If Tate makes an uninformed hire just on the basis of ethnicity, then both he and SW are out of a job if the project fails.

Let your AD do AD things and both of you can be there to pop champagne when it works

If its down to 4 candidates; one of these below will be the coach at LSU:

Luke Fickell
Billy Napier
James Franklin
Lincoln Riley- Don't think it will happen but crazy if it does.

He did not specify that. It was probably a good question to ask.

I heard about tomlin maybe coming but me personally I just don’t see it. Apparently He and the Steelers have had some problems and disagreements with what they are trying to do future wise. I don’t know if it’s enough for him to leave.

Tomlin is another level higher. Pay the man and give whatever resources are needed for a 20 year dynasty

I ain’t that guy. I tried showing you proof in a link. And tell you guys how many times this source has been right. But at the end of the day it’s up to you in what you believe.

"Down to 4 candidates" would suggest others have already said no, as there's no way Woodward only *just* started vetting candidates.

Not being negative, only that I'm sure Woodward has long had his top targets so he wouldn't really be vetting many more than 4 to begin with.

Kiffin would fit requirements as well, they could theoretically still make the playoff.

Of course I love the gossip, everyone does, but at the end of the day I have been here since 2005 and a bunch of damn coaching searches. Everyone that was the insider of the day has turned out to be full of shite at some point.

I will follow the story, I will read the crap but I wont put stock in any of the rumors. I will wait till Scott W takes the podium

This is a great troll. I too have thought about piecing together information from various places and aggregating them in general messages to see just how many people latch onto them.

Man I want to believe this so bad! Tate 1000% needs to stay out of this. Woodward is seasoned veteran and at the end of the day his job and his job alone is at stake if next HC is unsuccessful.

We are six or so weeks from having a guy, so being down to 4 isn’t that outrageous. I think Fickell is out. Kiffin also.

I’m gonna say

Napier
Franklin
Tucker
Riley

3 were considered/approached and the next coach is one of them - the order is wrong though
