Herman may be on a silver platter. Apparently Texas is holding off on Herman because they think they've got a Dabo and John Harbaugh in the discussion.

Seems very doubtful anyone really in the know would ever post vital information on a message board. Sure, there are outliers and some nail the info spot on. Most posts seem to be speculation and posters building credibility based on reports from news agencies and the popular opinion of message boards.

He says Jimbo without hesitation. When I ask if anything has changed he shakes his head no. I think he's getting a little annoyed that I keep asking him.

All this Jimbo negotiations are BS. If Jimbo is the guy, the negotiations would have been had a long time ago and an agreement reached.

So it makes me wonder why they're throwing this stuff out there, because there are no offers, counter offers going on right now between Jimbo and LSU.

I don't know if that means this is all disinformation to smokescreen Herman or all disinformation to smokescreen Jimbo, but there aren't negotiations being had at this point... LSU has its man

I stand by the same thing I've been saying for almost 2 months. It's Jimbo.

All this back & forth reminds me of all the "in the know" threads about As The Plains Burn. That thread still has to be the topic to beat up until now as far as pure number of sources saying completely different things & people claiming to really know shite.

We shall see.

IMO it's Herman and has been all along.


I'll be thrilled with either.

MUCH, MUCH higher. However, no personal income tax in FL. So it's almost a wash.

Well, DALSU is saying Jimbo turned us down yesterday "old news"

LSU is moving on Herman...

Are you saying that Jimbo is just playing the game is getting called on it, and will cave "Ok guys, I am coming"

I mean these things are fluid...

it isn't done until the contract is signed...

Jimbo did not "turn us down" -- he simply had some requests/tweaks that needed to be made. Minor details in the thick of things, imo. I expect him to be named after this weekend.

Herman doesn't want to miss on LSU waiting for Texas. Texas is behind the curve in their search. Texas needs a Jim Harbaugh type of hire go get their guy. With the money they will offer some feel they can take someone's coach. Much like you saw them going after Saban. They don't want to be topped by the Oregon or LSU hire.

LSU is using Sexton and Jimbo to put pressure on Tom Herman's agent. Full court press. If Aleva pulls this off, all you haters need to bow down to the Joe

Personally, I believe LSU has its man. Not sure if it's Jimbo or Herman (or a semi-surprise like Gundy), but I don't think there's any negotiations going on at this point. LSU has its next coach locked up and all the rumors from the last few days are just to keep people guessing and give their guy a chance to finish the season. A secondary motive for the rumors might be to identify leaks and clean house.

I don't think it's as complex as some of the rumors would have you believe..multiple offers, counter offer from Jimbo, back up plans, outcome of Texas-TCU, etc etc... LSU knows who its next coach will be and it's merely a matter of getting to Sunday/Monday announcement.
