Agreed, I believe if LSU hadn't got one of the guys they wanted then there is no reason to announce they are retaining Coach O at that time. That announcement could be made at any time. Herman and LSU worked out what they needed to work out for both sides to be happy and made the deal is what I believe. But, we shall see....

If O is indeed the new permanent head coach wake me up in two years when this board is back in full swing.

and if so we need to be hiring an AD and a coach..

I will literally be sick if it's O. And I like O, he's just not the man for this job, even tho he from here. Look at our last "home boy" hire, he is doing great...

I guess we want to announce coach O before Texas announces Herman so we can say we got our guy that we wanted all along?

I can't imagine any reason they would announce it as CEO. If fish and Herman were both no-gos, I would hope that LSU would continue the search before announcing a "new" coach that we've had for several weeks now.

The AD needs to stabilize the program. The new coach needs to hit the recruiting trail. Recruits and parents don't like uncertainty. Announcing O today, if it is him, is to shore up confidence in potential recruits.

O was not even in my Top 5 of choices but I will give him a chance to prove himself. IMO Lsu looks very bad with this choice.

We fired a coach that played for 2 national championships to hire a coach that never won a conference title.
