re: My speculation on LSU's next coach.

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.
