Jimbo fits absolutely perfect with everything LSU wants and he's already well familiar with how the administration helps run the program. Fisher was their target and they weren't going to let him go because he's about as good as it gets for LSU on paper outside Saban which will never happen. It's not just about who's the sexiest pick out there but rather if a coach came come in, instill his philosophy immediately, mingle well with the administration, understand TAF and the boosters, etc.

Jimbo is perfect for virtually all of that. He's a winner and rebuilt a bad program as well as being one of the best recruiters in the country. Homerun hire if he ends up at LSU. I have questions about him but I'd be lying if I said we could do better.

As some have mentioned, the visible target is sometimes a smoke screen. Fisher also gave an interview the other day indicating how he and the players had something special here we are a family, we help each other become better at football, at life and being men etc.

The point is it just didn't sound like what Fisher would be saying if he were planning on skipping town soon. He is a very honest straight forward type person, not like some coaches.

So I have some doubts about all of this, but it could be possible. I am still wondering if one of the football moderators may be onto something when they say Gary Patterson is the real target. You know he wouldn't have to drive very far to reach Baton Rouge.

He is a candidate that could justify such a large buyout also.

Y'all are blind to jimbo because of inferior competition he has faced..
