Texas leaked the info and "fans to keep deal under wraps until after Saturday"? If DALSU and Random is a fraud then you definitely are a fraud.
Not really dude, as it wasn't Texas but instead Tom Herman's agent who leaked the deal, which usually means they are using LSU's offer as leverage to get a better deal from Houston or at another university. Which would mean that LSUtigers9458 is correct and Random and DA are pretenders.

Not sure what to believe, but I'm officially back to thinking it's Jimbo.
The ESPN story thing tonight is just weird to me, something doesn't smell right with it.
Maybe Herman and LSU are in cahoots, both knowing they can help the other get what they want ... LSU-Jimbo and Herman -Texas... And maybe even a contingency plan to match up if the original plan falls through
FWIW, I really don't care which one it is or what the dollar amount is, as long as we get one of the two. Both have positives, just please get 1 of the 2.

Listen, it's not over until it's over, but I've seen so many coaching searches at this point it's not even funny.
I just don't buy these elaborate scenarios. I cannot see Herman letting this information leak before his last game at Houston ... unless he's staying at Houston.
That's the only wrinkle I can think of. Otherwise, there's just no way his agent lobs a grenade before his last game coaching that team.

One of the first guys to report this was a UT mod at on one of their sites (I don't remember which). He cited his source as someone "very, very close to Herman" and that would be in the know because he was expecting to be on the staff of wherever Herman went. Wouldn't that point to Applewhite leaking it, especially if UT said absolutely not to him coming with Herman?

Oh look! Another butt hurt little bitch.
It was some punk arse pussy dick sucking Texas booster that started this. Texas ain't even firing Strong.

If Tom Herman did get a considerable offer it's his agents job to tell the person at Texas who he is in contact with and let them know so they can counter with a better offer. That's literally his job. He didn't leak shite. Whoever he spoke with at Texas told others and they leaked the info. Seriously, look where the leaks came from. Texas. You think his agent is sabotaging the LSU deal and creating havoc in the locker room with players and the people Herman is still employed for just so Texas has a better shot? Get fricking real, they're Texas, if they were that confident about getting Tom Herman Strong would have been fired weeks ago.

He ain't going to Texas. It's been made pretty clear he thinks Texas is a dumpster fire and doesn't like the drama bullshite from the boosters.

There have been rumors about Texas being "cool" towards Herman for a few days now, though.
I'd bet there are multiple opinions in every athletic department in the country. I'd also bet that if you ask one "source" you'll get told X and if you ask another source you'll get told Y.
There have been days of reports about Herman not being the slam-dunk #1 pick for Texas for a few days, though.

If that's true, and Hermans agent leaked it, why does everything have Horns and Texas all over it?

Scenario #1: LSU engages in a dazzling display of subterfuge, manipulating the media and fans to think it was Tom Herman, keeping Jimbo Fisher's pursuit dead silent despite Sexton's penchant for publicity to get his client paid, only to turn around and snatch Jimbo from FSU at the last moment.
Scenario #2: LSU hires Tom Herman and it leaked early.
On point #1 - and this is why I'm somewhat inclined to believe 9458...
It's been a full year since we apparently almost pulled in Jimbo last year. Random, DA, 9458...they were all in unanimous agreement that we had Jimbo Fisher last year - and then Jindal and King stepped in.
Fast forward to this season - we fired Miles in September, knowing how close we were to hiring Jimbo last year, and knowing that we have about 2 months to get everything arranged and ready to go.
Which brings us to this week. After everything that has already happened between Jimbo and LSU, should we really believe that in the final few days of the regular season, that LSU and Jimbo suddenly can't agree on major terms in the contract (ie, salary)? We went through this last year apparently without any issues. We've had 2 months to communicate with Jimbo via backchannels. Should we really be inclined to believe that after all of this time, communication, research, and planning, that LSU and Jimbo suddenly have major disagreements over specific monetary figures in the contract? Especially after hearing from the TAF that "money won't be an issue"?
It may very well be Herman, but the more I think about this, the more credence I give to 9458's posts.

Tons of logic in your post and I don't disagree with much. However, if rumors are to be believed - and I think they should be, more or less - Jimbo asked for a 10 year deal. NOBODY gets a real 10 year deal.

And Tim Brando was roasted when he said all of that stuff. He was accused of having little to no access to the current administration and was basically just making up shite.
Not really, all the posts I read agreed that the story, which he confirmed, by the way, was true, but they were nonetheless pissed off like me that Tim Brando was so damn disloyal to LSU that he would go out of his way to discourage a potential coaching prospect from considering the LSU coaching job if offered.

nah, Texas leaked because Herman turned them down for LSU.
No it was Herman's agent who leaked it, and it started up a firestorm in Austin, as several of their millionaire supporters are supposedly flying out to Memphis tomorrow to go talk to Herman.

I guess we'll see how it plays out.
I just have a very hard time believing a man who kisses his players would allow this to happen hours before his final game as head coach of Houston.

Good. They've been fricking up Texas' football program for years. They are the reason things are so bad. If they go start talking to Herman, they will just frick it up again.

Then why hasnt he signed?
From what I understand Fisher has given LSU a verbal, but he can't sign until after the regular season. So we should find out by Sunday or Monday.
