I was doing some reading about some of the potential lsu coaching candidates. This guys resume is amazing. He is an offensive genius. Everywhere he has went he breaks records. Then look at the difference in ohio state in one offseason after losing him.

he's one of my favs. lost his starting qb earlier this year. team played like shite and turned the ballover 4 times yesterday and still almost came back and won. that's his worst moment as a coach.

I knew he was big for ohio state and he immediately has Houston where it wants to be. But looking back to even when he was a positions coach at Sam Houston state his impact is huge.

He's also a Mensa member. Very intelligent guy.

I'm a Herman guy. Have been even before his success at Houston. I just feel like this is LSU's chance at a 1987/Spurrier do-over.

He's an up and coming coach. The board wants a veteran coach.

All in on Herman. He is THE choice as far as I'm concerned.

If there is a change then an Offensive genius so to speak would be welcome. But defense wins. If you cant stop the other guy you cant make any mistakes on offense if you have to keep up.

Herman is a goid guy as well, not a sleeze ball like Briles. Any team that gets him will be better off. It may take him a couple of years to adjust to playing talented defenses but I think he will be a success.

Tom Herman is indeed a great choice. I personally prefer D coaches for a couple of reasons. Other than that, of course Jimbo would be a fit. Less risky, maybe not such reward but no one knows for sure.

My dark horse "wish", i.e. haven't really seen him discussed... at least not on the boards, is Steve Addazio (HC, Boston College).

If you can not just focus on offense, system, points, or W/L record his resume is a good one. To the young one's, he sounds like he's been with crap teams. But the teams he was at were winners when he was there for the most part. He's been a OL, TE, Asst HC, now a HC, OC, TE coach. That's the most impressive to me.
quote:

Herman has a smoke show for a wife and one of his sons is named Maverick. He has improved a team dramatically at every stop he's made. We would roll with this guy immediately. He's a winner.
can't argue with what he's done with Stave, who looked like he had multiple schlorsis at times at Wisky. Most impressive, he's done some damn good recruiting to be at Houston. Put the two together (if it would hold) in the SEC, at LSU, with his TX ties. It looks pretty good.

He's smart enough that Saban flew him in to talk to him about what weaknesses of his defense he exploited in the playoff game while he was at OSU
