A Sunday report from the Advocate in Louisiana said Fisher is the "top candidate" for the head coaching position at LSU. Fisher has been tight-lipped regarding rumors about LSU's interest, but did answer a question about their impact on recruiting.

"I'm always up front," Fisher said. "Again, I'm not going to comment on those things, but I'm very up front to those guys. ... I'm very direct about what's going on. I'm extremely happy at Florida State."

Fisher was asked about if current players bring up the rumors. He didn't comment.

Fisher is reportedly the favorite to be the head coach at LSU next year.

No. 17 Florida State (8-3) will host No. 23 Florida (8-2) in Tallahassee this Saturday to close out the regular season. Following Saturday's game, the Seminoles will not play again until their Bowl game.
