Right. Because there is no good food in NYC, Boston, or Chicago. :rolleyes:

Some of y'all need to leave your homogenous little "safe" places more and experience other things. There is a lot more good food out there than BBQ and meat n threes.

Lighten up, Francis. There is indeed very good food there and in other northern towns but little to none of it's from the long established locals aka Yankees.

You want to morph the definition of the derisive label you apply to people to fit your desired end, but you still don’t get there. A) It doesn’t matter if your definition of “Yankee” is making the food. They’re still exposed to it regularly and have the resulting palate, and B ) yes, many of them are making it and have been for generations.

The pizza in NYC, Chicago, and Detroit blows anything away that the South has to offer. A chopped cheese in a NYC bodega. An Italian beef in Chicago. Boston seafood and chowder. A fried pork tenderloin sandwich in Indiana. Philly cheesesteak. Primanti Bros. in Pittsburgh. And yes, ethnic food in northern cities blows ours away and many of those restaurants/families have been there for generations.

We’re actually pretty food-limited down here compared to those places. And if you start counting other places outside the South, but not “the North,” like Seattle, New Mexico, and San Francisco, the gap grows even more.

If Heup thinks the Cajuns would be any easier on him then he’s in for a rude awakening!!!! And, if he’s as thin skinned as described above then thanks for being here and stabilizing our team but don’t let the door hit you on the way out! So yes I could imagine him leaving and will be fine with it! He’s got two years here to get his staff upgraded or he will be fired anyway. My personal take is he’s a petty sissy and needed a tough guy like Golesh to balance out the discipline at the staff and player level. It’s obvious!

He deserves any of the valid criticisms he has received this far!!!! He doesn’t deserve the irrational hostility some clowns have done though!

Phillips is wrong about TN fans not giving Heupel credit though!

Weird that the sports press seemed to telegraph this situation by chumming the waters when saying UT fans are ungrateful and want Heupel gone.
There were some misanthropes making noise about Tim Banks on the forum; same as every week. But the noise on this forum was weak. That makes me think the fanbase in general was frustrated, but not against Heupel, except for the OU gamec criticisms.

Sorry if I touched a nerve but traditional southern cooking beats traditional northern cooking eight days a week. A good Philly cheesesteak is a joy though.

I don’t think there are many fans that want him gone. I think there are several that want him to get better at some things including holding assistant coaches accountable and replace them when they have proven they aren’t carrying their weight.

I sure hope there aren't many that want him gone. We've got a high ceiling with him as HC.

Why would LSU want a coach that can't win the league or hasn't won it yet? That's what LSU just got rid of. I'm not even sure it's that much better of a job. We used to win championships too.

The fact that this thread has lasted so long is silly. Incredible.

Im not sure how abyone can doubt CJH will at minimum be on some lists to fill the vacancies.

I also think he would be crazy not to listen. He can almost certainly get a pay or buyout increase.

I’m sure that’s his agent’s take.

Contrary to popular belief, accumulation of funds ain’t the point.

Chris Phillips has no idea what he is talking about.. He was "The Spurs Up Show" guy for years and then when SC fans ran him out of town he became SEC Unfiltered. He seems close with LSU fans so my guess is some random LSU Fan told him something he read on an ON3 board and Chris is just spitting that back. No chance Chris is plugged in with anyone real at LSU.

We sure do, thanks, in more ways than one. Just fwiw, nobody in my immediate family is or was fat and the obesity rate in my cousins' immediate families is and was about 11%. My home state's the 29th fattest, so not great but not terrible and well ahead of a lot of states in the North.

Only ahead of 2 in the north LOL (MD, DE are considered the south). *CDC map

You should spend some time in Virginia outside of NoVa. There's nothing barely about it. It's ahead of almost all the Midwest, which is about entirely considered as in the North.
Yes I know that Maryland and Delaware are considered the South. There's that Mason Dixon Line thing. That takes away from your 'barely' assertion btw.
Isn't 29 higher than both 26 and 28?

Heupel has the #1 WR and #1 QB coming in next year. Boosters need to stay way and not pressure Heupel

I hear more people who talk about fans that want Heupel gone than I hear fans who want him gone.
