Shoop says NEAUX to LSU

[Ritzarmy]

I hope he stays at Penn State. He was born in PA and hope he stays home.

Judging by this:

"Wow..The B1G EAST is gonna be as good as it gets over the next several years. Let's get to work! #WeAre" (sorry don't know how to post tweets directly)

I would hope he wants to compete against the best and in a few years he can leave for a HC position, but the lateral move makes little sense. Both are good teams, but if PSU can turn the corner as many suspect he will get a LOT more fanfare from the schools down the road

Your title was very misleading and I added rumor, because that's all it is. Pendergrast, Steele and Stoops are the favorites, Shoop is a fallback plan they have some interest in, but there's already word Stoops has been offered and will decide in next day or 2. Shoop has a lot of family ties here, has not interviewed or even been contacted by LSU at this point. He's a name some writers put on a wish list

Miles is also on the hot seat if has another 8-5, 7-5 type year. As far as HC for shoop down road, there are some guys who are just better indians than chiefs. His first stint as HC was a disaster

I wouldn't make any HC judgements based upon a failed first stint. Bill Belichick failed with the Browns and look where he is now...

one was 36-44 in the NFL with a playoff appearance, one was 7-23 at a college job.

Now reading that he will take an interview?

Trying to not panic

Here's the deal, his agent is having him mentioned with every opening trying to leverage a raise from PSU. However, LSU is one that I think he'd seriously consider if the money was right. That said, it would not be because PSU didn't step up to plate. They have apparently offered him a deal that would make him one of top 5 paid assistants in all of college football. So, unless he's a truly greedy man and 100k or so makes that much of a difference in his life as opposed to being hme and close to his family, then he'll go. Co-DC and Assistant HC Pry would be named DC and there is word that Lavar (I'd believe it when I see it) may come on staff, which would be a recruiting nightmare for anyone who works the DMV. Either way, pry is a great coach as well and actually turned down an HC job at Georgia State to come with Franklin and has also been co-DC with Shoop for last 4 years or so. I'd hate to lose shoop, mainly from a stability standpoint, but its not like we are taking a big downgrade with pry

Okay, thanks !

Goodnight to that rumor and damn if they didn't have fun with it

Shoop not Geauxing anywhere. Our defense is gonna be filthy for years. Probably our weakest recruiter, but best xs and os guy

Apparently its a 3 year deal at around 1 mil per. PSU is back to playing big boy football again.
