You don't keep playing games with Jimbo and Sexton that will probably get you burned, with Jimbo getting a raise from FSU, and then Herman finding another landing spot while we're wasting our time. You close the deal with Herman if he's ready to close it with you.

No doubt.

You lock down the first one of Herman or Fisher that commits.

This is the epitome of "a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush."

The bird in this case being a top-tier coach that's an offensive wizard, a drawing card, and capable of leading us back quickly to competing for SEC and national championships again.

You are completely on the money, OP.

But I have this sickening feeling that Alleva and the BOS will screw around and fail to seize the moment.

Man if we end up with Fedora or O after all of this, Alleva needs to be fired on the spot

Absofrickinglutely!

So tired of Sexton's games on the past which always seem at LSU'S expense.

Especially when you've had a two month headstart on the process.

If this is where things are - which I think DALSU said is so - and we end up with Gundy or Fedora, then this has been completely botched. Good point on if that happens, Alleva blew a two month head start.

Seal the deal, Alleva. Come on.

Agree. Sexton playing drive the price up game and you still may not get him, when you can pay less and get Herman.

It isn't even debatable, of Herman agrees to the terms offered, you immediately bind the agreement. Why on Earth would you wait around for a guy who has burned you before and whose agent has put you over a barrel on multiple occasions? Just end it.

Herman will be better than Fisher and if Alleva screws this up I will personally track his clown arse down

Alleva should have been in Houston to seal the deal by gametime today

He'd need to be in Memphis, because that's where UH is playing tomorrow morning.

At this point everything would likely be done through representatives to maintain plausible deniability.

Jimbo has known that LSU would welcome him with open arms, and pocketbooks, for a long time now. He's had his chance to make the deal happen if he seriously wanted it. No Jimmy Sexton haggling for more money/power BS. If Herman is ready to sing his name to a contract, you make a mad dash to Herman with pen in hand.
