Message: [QUOTE="noeynox, post: 5357441, member: 156"] I think Foster was hoping for a coach Prime effect. ADs mostly suck at hiring coaches. Whenever someone hits it out of the box others try to copy the model. Indiana hits the lottery with Cignetti. He's 64. Now older guys who have had success at lower levels are having their names floated for big time jobs. I saw Keeler floated for LSU. I mean come on, I am fan of Keeler but if you fire Brian Kelly and bring him in what are you doing? At one time the young hot coordinator was all the rage. We hired one. Some schools are really stupid. Wisconsin firing Chryst was dumb and I said so at the time. I think Penn State firing Franklin is dumb. Time will tell. I also think Brian Kelly is a good coach (bad person) that took an impossible job. LSU won with Saban and he left. Won with Myles and he flopped. Won with Ed O and he flopped. The expectation at LSU is national title or bust but with the SEC adding schools like A&M, Texas, and Oklahoma where is LSU in the pecking order of programs in the SEC? There is one reason to take the job there. The buyout will make it so your kids kid's dont have to work. [/QUOTE]
