A Jimbo hire there would be devastating for LSU.

So, fire the coach who currently has your team 6-4, and pursue the coach who currently has his team 3-6. Seems legit.

Sounds like an Aggie joke.

THIS IS THE BEST PART, the rare blood disorder and the LSU contact

Wolken also noted Fisher has in the past expressed a desire to stay close to his children. His youngest son suffers from a rare blood disorder.

However, the Aggies have some factors in their favor to potentially entice Fisher.

For one, they shouldn't have much trouble offering him more than the $5.5 million he earns annually from Florida State. Texas A&M collected over $194 million in total revenue in 2015-16, the highest in the country.

The school is already paying Sumlin $5 million a year, so Fisher's contract likely wouldn't be a significantly higher investment than the program is already making.

Texas A&M athletic director Scott Woodward has worked with Fisher before, which could be another bonus for the Aggies. Woodward was LSU's director of external affairs from 2000 to 2004, while Fisher was an assistant coach for the Tigers from 2000 to 2006.

This report gets out, the team plays an inspired game against LSU in honor of their coach, Jimbo says no thanks, Sumlin is retained.

(I know it won't happen, TAMU doesn't beat LSU)

I don't believe it is, right? I thought he'd just owe the guaranteed portion of his staff's contracts.

And Jimbo at A&M would be terrible for LSU. Guy is a recruiting machine that would land in our backyard.

That, along with Chip Kelly, at UF, would be fricking terrible. And fun at the same time

Isn't Jimbo's buyout 40,000,000.00?

Lsu not only had the goat coaching staff in early 2000’s. Had the goat administration. President of lsu at the time was off the chain and all the assistant athletic directors then are major athletic directors now.

None of these schools seem to want to go after Orgeron. Weird.

...Or Miles for that matter.

So you can’t see the big picture; you can’t see past the nose on your face.

Know how I know you work the third shift at the Dairy Queen?
