Floyd denies LSU interest
Posted: Wednesday March 12, 2008 06:23AM ET
USC coach Tim Floyd won't comment on whether he has been contacted by Louisiana State, but reiterates that his current post will be his "last job." A consultant in the coaching search who has met with LSU officials in Baton Rouge said the school's top choice remained Virginia Commonwealth Coach Anthony Grant. Other potential candidates for the LSU opening include Massachusetts' Travis Ford, Washington State's Tony Bennett, Missouri's Mike Anderson, Southern Illinois' Chris Lowery and Tigers interim Coach Butch Pierre.

Report Offensive CommentWell, when the Bush fiasco is settled, Carroll will be gone.
As for Floyd, why leave? You have non talented rapper's sons and NBA kids who need a one year college day care before jumping to the pros whom you don't have to recruit at all. It's a great easy job. And besides, the USC cheerleaders wear NO UNDERWEAR!

Report Offensive CommentSI is stretching on this one "Floyd denies interest," he flat out said he has no interest. Jealousy is a disease. Fight On!
Hey Warden - what's the weather like up there today? sucks.

Report Offensive CommentAnthony Grant would be a good choice. He was Florida's guy for about three days.

Report Offensive CommentWhy would he want to leave USC? He is starting to build a program there, and will have an awesome program in a few years! Heck he already got a good team there this year! Plus he lives in California what could be better than that? I think LSU's best option is Anthony Grant which is a pretty good option if he wants it.

Report Offensive CommentOJ Mayo will be the first decent pro to come out of USC in a while. At least in Louisiana you know you will get the fa,t athletic kids. Take guys like Big Baby, Tyrus Thomas, and of course, the Diesel for example.

Report Offensive CommentWow, MARINsur4, that is some brilliant analysis. You said that Floyd said he has no interest in the job. How is it stretching for SI to characterize that as denying interest?
"How's the weather up there?" That's clever. How's the gang violence down there? How's the housing market?

Jabril1217 | 03/13/08, 10:36 AM
Report Offensive CommentThatcher - "denying interest" has the implication that there is interest on the part of Floyd. He has unequivocally stated SC is his last job. There is a difference. On top of that, LSU said they were never interested in him and have not contacted him.
How's the housing market? Look at my name, google Marin County and tell me how the housing market is.
