I don't want to see Jimbo or fedora....guys are are north if 50 already.

We need to build the future and create a new energy and identity. HERMAN is that in spades. If we can't get him we need to look at other guys around the same age.

You often get what you pay for, so hopefully the search people know what they really want. A bargain or a real coach?

Of those, I like Jimbo immeasurably more. In fact, if we're firing Miles right now, I'd like it to be:

Herman, then Jimbo. After that, I'd almost rather offer Aranda the chance to go after it and just see what a change can do.

I mean, Freeze is under 50. Whittingham (who is probably better than Fedora, too, just FTR) would not be my first choice, but that's another young HC possibility. I don't see either as a home run, IMHO.

I agree with this! Put everything you got into the Herman Basket. If it doesnt work go get Josh McDaniels from New England!!!

I agree with what Booger McFarland said, we should go after lane kiffin, a good young offensive minded coach who can recruit just as good or probably better than les miles

Right now:

Make Aranda the head coach and defensive coach.

Keep Cam as offensive head coach.

This means multiple good things:

1. LSU has youthful leadership.
2. There is minimal turnover of key staff members. Everyone that remains is already indoctrinated into LSU policies and practices.
3. This lets the 2017 commits know the matter has been handled and they already know the coaches that are left.

First off LSU needs to move on from Miles ASAP. Put Orgeron interim coach. My thought on this decision is to keep attendance up for the remainder of the season. If we keep Miles attendance to games will continue to drop which will cost athletic department money from ticket sales and concessions. Putting Orgeron in breathes some new life into the program and signals a change which might be enough to keep fans in the stands if even out of just curiousity. As far as coaches I like the idea of Herman. However if Houston moves into Big 12 the first year he would make 5 million and the second year he would make 7.5 million. This would be hard to walk away from right now to start over at LSU and I think his buyout is 3 million. Urban Meyer is another coach I would gauge interest from. His buyout would be 2 million from Ohio State.
