    The names I’m seeing as possible q b replacements for Corrall is going to lead to a big drop off. If he sticks around and goes 6-6 it’s going to really cool off his name being mentioned for top jobs. He knows this, which is why I still think he may look to bolt depending on what he has coming in.

    It didn't make sense to me either. Unless there was something going on behind the scenes at Oklahoma I didn't know about or he was just trying to get a raise.

    O'Brien would be a safe hire but he won't scare the rest of the sec.

    O'Brien would be an underwhelming hire - and I think he'd be gone in 3 years. We should hope this rumor is true.

    I wonder if lsu is starting to hit that Tennessee syndrome. The rotating head coach every 3 years trying to recapture the magic

    Just theorizing probably crazy but some of these blue bloods are trying so hard to be bama that the expectations are becoming so unrealistic a lot of great coaches ain't gonna take it on. That's where I came up with Tennessee syndrome. After fullmer they've spent 2 decades trying to reproduce it and can't and just keep shuffling through mediocre coaches, because the good ones don't want it.

    Bama was the originator of "chasing the legend of Bama" during the 24 years between the Bear and Satan. They averaged a new coach every 4 years. Yeah, Stallings won a Natty and had them in the SEC title game every year - but it was never enough for them.

    Compared to Lincoln Riley I'm good with it. I didn't expect them to hire a Sylvester Croom.

    Yeah, because they eventually found someone better than the Bear - which not every program will do.

    I'd love to have Bama spend a quarter century wandering around in the wilderness and letting us get 7 wins against them again. The SEC was a lot more fun that way. If LSU continues down that path, it will make the west more fun as well.

    Riley to LSU was a troll job.

    Riley to USC has actual legs.
