Fisher was not highly thought of when he left here. He took a ton of criticism for the offense.

A lot of fans weren't in favor of Jimbo then... A lot of fans didn't like his offense.

Maybe he was handcuffed a lil with Saban being the control freak he is.

Saban wanted LSU as a fallback in case the NFL didn't work out

Don't hire Jimbo, hire Houston nutt instead

He set records in 2001.

His offenses were mediocre versus the best teams post Rohan/Reed.

This is putting it mildly. People hated Jimbo's guts by the time he left. Does anybody remember this place after the Auburn game in ' 06?

Skip said on radio a month or so ago that Saban told him Jimbo wasn't ready. He may have been right, but Jimbo has now proven himself, and he's about to come home to the SEC and destroy fools.

Godamn Auburn 06.

The difference in play calling in that game and the Notre Dame sugar bowl still passes me off.
