Coaching carousel 2025-26

I do not have confidence that Lane will bring in a decent defensive coordinator. Of course LSU will still have a good defense but that is based on the talent that comes in and not the coaching staff, to.

I think it is more likely for Kiffin to implode than win a National Championship at LSU. And when he has not won a championship by the end of Y3, the corndogs will grow impatient. Let's face it, Lane does not handle pressure well.

Ole Miss was willing to do just about anything to keep him including yearly rumors of him leaving. As an outsider it appeared they gave him everything he wanted. They seemed to ask how high when Lane said jump. When the cajuns start in on him when he loses to a team he shouldn't his meltdown could be popcorn worthy.

I often have issues with Josh Pate but I 100% agree with him in that PSU may have botched this coaching search worse than anyone since Tennessee in their firing of Butch jones. They really thought some big fish was going to jump just because of them being PSU. I wouldn’t be surprised if Campbell says “no” because he would be very behind in recruiting if he left ISU at this point

It really does appear that PSU dropped the ball big time. They were one of the first to fire their coach and are going to be one of the last to fill the spot. Wouldn't shock me at all if they thought they could just snap their fingers and get any coach they wanted.

So LSU got their #1 choice for HC. Anybody else sign one in their top 5?

I am very curious how Campbell will do with more resources. I think he is a good coach that I have kept my eye on. We shall see if he truly is a good coach.

This isn’t something that is new. Alabama (especially under CNS) went out of state nationally.

A lot because he re-built Bama on the national scene…but also because we have an in-state little brother. Even though our recruiting classes are great, Auburn last year signed like 9 out of the top 10 players in state.

So, not having an in state rival absolutely is a recruiting advantage even still.

That was because CKD didn't have any relationships to the state high schools prior to coming to Tuscaloosa in late January of last year.

awbern obviously took advantage of that opportunity.

Not interested in what 274 Sports (as opposed to 247 Sports) says.

Yep, it's a make up stuff for clicks(hoping people don't catch the name change) misinformation site
