What if LSU could get summy on steep discount.
He has the swag that works well with recruiting.

Task Sumlin to be a recruiting figurehead. And save the big bucks for a play caller and DC.

Why would they when they can get the whole package?

I believe the rumors about Mike Stoops with Aranda as the backup. Never understood why they settled for
Orgeron but there are certainly some really weird politics at LSU especially with the AD they had at the time. I don't see Woodward screwing this up.

Joe Brady would be an interesting move .
Not sure if that's something he would
Want . He perhaps has his eyes set on being an NFL hc

Just hire him as the recruiting coordinator if that is what you want.

Head coach or nothing. Media would eat up the storylines and the SEC would instantly become even more entertaining.

Wrigley would drop millions to sponsor gamedays at LSU with all the chewing that will happen

Sumlin not likely to be pacing a sideline anytime/anywhere soon...or in the future. Man's not SEC, HC or Coordinator material. His peak = "El Swagermiester"
Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne, and myself founded empires; but upon what foundation did we rest the creations of our genius? Upon force! But Jesus Christ founded His upon love; and at this hour millions of men would die for Him. - Napoleon Bonaparte

I wouldn't be so sure. He can recruit well when up to the task

Sumlin and Mazzone are apparently a package deal. Maybe get the 2-fer discount.

Would be stupid for Stoops to leave UK. Just like a reverse of when BCG left to go to UK. They would love him almost no matter what for their not-favorite sport forever.

But he would probably do it.

I think it's an interesting idea, but doubt it happens. Woodward came out right after the UCLA debacle and put sumlin on notice. I'm sure sumlin remembers that.

The other issue- if you are Woodward, and IF sumlin succeeds, could you control him? Sumlin is astute enough politically to use that newfound leverage to push Woodward out.

I can't imagine Woodward doing that. Suggests the firing at Texas A&M was not in his control.

Of all the skills coaches can have, recruiter is probably the last one LSU needs. Some traits coaches can master...

Player development
Gameplanner
Play Caller
Motivator
Recruiter

LSU's Lady of the Lake foundation does all the recruiting they need, on top of their name, so a recruiting coach is the least of their needs.

LOL Sumlin isn't even that good of a recruiter. Charlie Strong showed up and ate his lunch.

Man i would love that so much.

It's terrifying the thought of that talent with his offense.

All those passes to the sidelines. YIKES.

I've got it.

LSU hires summy and gives him carte Blanche to hire whomever he wants so long as he isn't the one calling plays.

Summy says "ok" and speed dials Spav and Chavis.

Pop the popcorn

Why would summy push him out? Because of what happened at TAMU?

Business is business. To your point though, he has shown his pettiness, especially with his eyes tweet after our auburn loss and his sarcastic pressers

However Sumlin will be coaching again next year - Georgia Tech

I might be confused by the wording of the question. But... he will be the head football coach at Georgia Tech. After the season Collins will be fired.

Woodward isn't going to hire someone he's already fired once before.
