Football scoop that has a lot of "in's" with the Coaching community said recently on a podcast that they think Campbell is the guy LSU wants as well. We shall see...

I've thought Aranda to LSU has made the most sense all along. I'd like to think it would knock a leg out from underneath Baylor but as someone else just mentioned, their ability to find under the radar talent is impressive.

I think Aranda goes to LSU, and Napier goes to Florida, although that has be be a hornets nest right now.

It'll be interesting what happens to Baylor. The Tech guy who came on here and posted for a little bit alluded to the fact that Tech's new coach had a great deal with Baylor's success under Rhule and Aranda. If I can recall from those posts, McGuire is well respected in the Texas High School ranks and thus, a reason for their recruiting and success.

They may want him, but does Campbell want LSU? The media still considers ISU as a stepping stone type of job and one where coaches will want to leave ASAP.

I too am waiting for this answer. YOU DONT SAY STUFF LIKE THAT WITHOUT FOLLOWING UP. No post and ghost please
Simmer down. People as in people close to the program/athletic department.

Also it has been said above, but Football Scoop is hearing similar things and those guys are usually spot on and in the know way before any national media.

Not sure. If Campbell has ever really considered leaving I think this would be the year to do it with what he has coming back roster wise. Eventually the shine could wear off and not be the "hot" name anymore. Campbell though could be perfectly fine with that and be more than happy to stay at ISU. Don't know...

If it does happen, at least we will probably know in the next week or 2.

It'll be really interesting to see where he ends up, if he does in fact leave, and how it lines up with our preconceived notions of the types of jobs he would take.

When I think of a job Campbell would leave ISU for, I look for 1) a low-drama AD/athletic department, 2) a relatively sane and highly supportive fan base, and 3) "cultural fit" which I admit is really subjective and heavily influenced by #s 1 and 2. Or the NFL, which is probably more dependent on geography and the ownership.

If he goes to LSU, it really upends everything we thought we knew about him.

Don't like this at all, I'll hope the people you have ins with are just janitors within the athletic department and not people who talk to Matt on a daily basis.
