Who should LSU hire?
What Dodd Says…
It’s simple math for a coach who has yet to complete a second season in the big chair: Michigan State was a better job than Colorado, and LSU is a better job than Michigan State. In fact, LSU is one of the best in the country. Tucker might not be the home run hire some expect from athletic director Scott Woodward, but think of Tucker as a lot like Steve Sarkisian last year when he was hired by Texas: He’s the best name left on the board that LSU can get. (The Tigers would obviously be hoping for a better starting record than 4-5, of course.)
Not quite sure I agree with the “best name left on the board that LSU can get” part of this statement. Everything is really still in play for the Tigers and athletic director Scott Woodward. Of the two hires made in Helton to Georgia Southern and Texas Tech going with Joey McGuire, neither were an option for the Bayou Bengals.
But who will be the guy?
