Nope, we’re not kidding.
Per the Miami Herald, (the citing of which is sort of but not exactly like kidding), freshly ousted Alabama Crimson Tide head coach Mike Shula has had not one but two interviews for the Miami Dolphins head coaching job. You know, the very job vacated by Jesus H. “Nick” Saban, who took Shula’s job at Alabama.
That’s just messed up right there. Miami hiring Mike Shula would be dumber than green bean casserole without those little fried onions from a can on top.
This makes us laugh, in that headshaking, “Jeebis. People suck.” sort of way.
Two sportswriters from two competing major media outlets offer their two wholly uninformed cents about LSU’s prospects for the upcoming 2007 football season. Both manage to need only one sentence to completely botch their analysis of the Tigers quarterback situation, because clearly neither has done his homework on the subject.
Oregon Ducks offensive coordinator Gary Crowton will replace Jimbo Fisher in the same capacity at LSU. This should dispel concerns by some (read: Jimmy Ott) that Les Miles seeks to run an old school, conservative, pound it up the middle style offense. It also makes us feel a little better about LSU’s commitment to keeping a top-tier coaching staff rather than going cheap and promoting some unknown assistant from within.
According to the Houston Chronicle, he’s considered a “serious candidate“, along with Willie Martinez, Mark Stoops, and Paul Randolph. These guys are all college defensive coordinators.
We continue our look at the assorted headgear worn by LSU head football coach Les Miles as he visits the homes of prep superstars across the nation in attempt to convert them into Tigers. This week, we head to the West Coast and see what our fearless leader wears when trying to out-recruit Pete Carroll for those freaky California kids who pierce their peckers and attend Burning Man festivals.
