Frankly, I am surprised he was still here anyway. Back in Feb or early March I went to take a look at a house that had just gone on the market for sale the day before. As I was walking though I noticed the owner appeared to be a big football fan...not just LSU stuff (but plenty of that. Especially recent CFP stuff). I went in the garage and saw a refrigerator decorated with USC, Chargers, Raiders and Broncos helmet stickers. I then looked up on a shelf and saw a suitcase with a CFP bag tag with the name "Cregg" written on it. It then dawned on me that it was Cregg's house that was for sale. I figured that was because LSU was moving on from him. Why move from a nice house if you plan to be in a place for a while?

Maybe he knew the writing was on the wall soon. This just expedited the process


Sorry, I'm an idiot

Will Campbell was coming to LSU regardless of Cregg


I would be ecstatic for Davis, dude was my middle school teacher at SU Lab some years ago

Would be a fantastic recruiter at a school like LSU and he’s from Baton Rouge

And pittman did not give him his first coaching gig. I think he would come home if offered the job

Recruiting contact violations. Clemson turned in Cregg for communicating with 5* OT Tristan Leigh last cycle. I would assume due to the fact that he silently signed early with Clemson and didn’t tell anyone and let coaches keep recruiting him.

According to Vol there were apparently some other smaller contact violations as well.

Heard from a source this morning that the FSU OL coach Alex Atkins is a target. Has a pretty good pedigree.

How would they know how the recruits took it? Even if they hated it not like they would admit it.


Why wouldn’t they admit it?

What is the point of admitting it? If they don't like it they can just go somewhere else. From my experience, recruiting gets aggravating and the kids will just tell the coaches what they want to hear.

But we're in this thread now. Why not just post the reason instead spending the time to pen an unhelpful post?

ETA: Now you're being helpful. Thank you,

Just want to say I dropped the Arkansas name last night. I’m hearing there’s interest on both sides.

Now that is interesting

It may be a contract issue.m, even firing someone with cause as someone said, they can still fight that and tie you up in legal issues.
May have come to some agreement but he knew the writing was on the wall.
