So as of Wednesday morning, 11/23, this is where we stand?

Jimbo was a smoke screen to snag Herman before Texas was ready to make a decision on strong?

Jimbo talk leads to lack of urgency from UT?

Jimbo backing off?

Scout article: strong might not be done at Texas, LSU after Herman the hardest?







My understanding of how its playing out...

Both parties agreed and created this coup, naming one the unanimous favorite to distract the fanbases and get Herman in power while Jimbo gets a payday.

The powers that be intentionally leaked information to DALSU and LSUTigers9458 knowing they would get it out to the public. These powers did not deny the content of leaks, and even attempted to silence DALSU and LSUTigers9458 to validate them.

DALSU and LSUTigers9458 have now disappeared, and are likely hiding out in an Ecuadorian Embassy trying to continue giving us peices to the puzzle. If anything were to happen to them it would trigger a kill switch releasing all the coaching search documents, including past controversies (last years fiasco).





Brief description of HC canidates:

Jimbo's potential negative is accusations of running a lawless administration: Jameis rape case, among other incidents (QB beats up girl in bar). Possible scandals/cover ups. He is also dealing with the damage caused by a cheating spouse.
His potential positive is he is a proven coach with experience. He has worked with the outgoing administration and won't drastically change things. He may even keep many staff members in place, smooth transition.

Hermans Potential Negative is he is a boom or bust coach, a wildcard. Possibly more worried about his own career rather than seeing things through.
His positive is he is fairly new to coaching and has a unique style unifluenced by years in the miles program. His style scares the old guard (Saban) happy with the current power structure and the swamp that is Birmingham. Also has Potential character flaw of disregarding others' personal space: kisses players... "Just grabs them by the face" and gives them a big kiss when it probably makes them uncomfortable. Could be offensive.




Fun Fact:

Jimbo was at one point (mid 2000s) in competition with Les (the only coach the younger generation has known) to be our leader.
When Jimbo didn't make the final cut he stayed involved in the program and worked under Les. He was involved in offensive posturing for the miles administration, in charge of dealing with foreign programs defense.
Now about a decade later he is a finalist for the top position. Some say "it's his turn." Others are tired of the same old philosophy and want to try something new. We'll see what happens...





Is this how shite actually gets done in regards to regime change in today's world of information overload and lack of privacy? Crazy times...
