re: Has anybody but Tiger Rant sources mentioned Jimbo to LSU?

I'm hearing from a reputable source, mostly mum on all subjects unless he know for sure, which stated Jimbo to LSU is a done deal pending FSU match but that the plan is most of the "liked" assistant coaches will be retained. I don't know if that means by the players or by the fans. I'm thinking a mix of both. I speculate FW and Raymond will be kept, unknown on Orgeron. 6 yr 30-32 mil, if LSU loses it will be announced on Sunday.

This true? Are you a reliable source?
I got a phone call tonight from someone that would know. Believe me or not. It's Jimbo.

How much is LSU going to pay him? He's in the first year of a new deal at FSU worth $44 million that's paying him ~$5 million this year. It think it's for 7, maybe 8 years, but I'm not positive.

Now that it's late and all the bs has died down I wanted to say/ask a couple Qs that got lost in the chaos
1. I have a couple of clients that are big wigs(1 is top 10 TAF, other is top 100. Just tryin to say I'm not a dipshit throwing shite out there, lol) Through out this whole thing neither of them knew anything they'd say was concrete. But...
2. Q... One of them mentioned that somebody told them that the whole freakin buyout and jimbo's buyout was being paid by 1 guy in Shreveport. Anybody know anything about this? All the shite being said, I never once saw anything about this. Lol.....thought for a second...well I guess that means it's prolly bs ... Then I thought again.... That prolly means it's legit, lol
Anyway, this is about to be an interesting couple days

Word of mouth coming from people with connections is exactly what you've been hearing. Miles will be relieved of his duty after the A&M game and all of lsu's chips are in the Jimbo Fisher basket. It's not hard to believe that it's as close to being done as it can be at this point, but anything can happen. If Jimbo isn't our next coach it will be because something changed between now and Sunday. I've talked to several people who I wouldn't call insiders or sources themselves, per se, but they either know people who are or are high up in companies that give a lot of money to tiger athletics. All info is taken with a grain of salt right now, but there's never been this much smoke before, so for me it's the most likely scenario. The same info is just coming from too many different angles. Not everyone gets their "info" from the rant.

If that's the case it's not that close to a done deal. IMO

It's LSU, agents, potential coaches that will decide the timeline. Things like this don't happen in a vacuum. It's fluid and ongoing. Miles may know that he's likely to not be coaching LSU next season, but he's not going to say it now. It'll all come down in one big "here you go" officially.
I hope it all gets wrapped up nice like that. Better than firing a coach and forming a committee and wasting time like that if the right guy is available.

Yes- Scotty Moran. Hes offered the buyout money a couple of times in the past few years...
Posted on 11/26/15 at 12:08 am to Schmelly
The "one guy in Shreveport" that has such strong ties to LSU and the money to handle the buyouts is Scotty Moran. He could pay the monthly payments from the interest he earns on his own money without blinking an eye. He's hardcore LSU and I'd imagine he's done with Les' ways.

Who is he? Cause if that's legit then I guess I have some confirmation too that isn't TD related. Lol

Oh, I'm quite sure the FSU fans have, as well as their AD.
Just hope you have a good character guy in Jimbo. If not, we're just fricked.

Legit Schmelly. You walk under his name every time you enter Tiger Stadium.
Posted on 11/26/15 at 12:15 am to MardiGrasCajun
Well dam, look a little ole me. I got some inside info, lol 
Posted on 11/26/15 at 12:18 am to MardiGrasCajun
If it's someone in Shreveport then it's Moran for sure

Damn. What's he worth?
He's putting up Miles buyout himself?
Jesus.

Weird that my guy would say "a guy from Shreveport". Seems like he'd know who Scotty Moran was. I've been knowing this guy for 15 years. He's part of that purple jacket crew. You'd think they all know of each other. But I can tell you, he's not in that kinda league as far as $ goes. Some of his friends are, but he's not
Posted on 11/26/15 at 12:28 am to Schmelly
I'll see him tomorrow. I'll ask him about it again & mention the name

Supposedly, Les' buyout, Jimbo's buyout and the LSU assistants being let go. $20MM+...big money. I did some research on Scotty a couple of years ago and his worth at the time was well over $300MM. Scotty stacked...FSU fricked.
