All this A&M noise looks and sounds sooooooooo familiar.
With sights on Jimbo Fisher, LSU formulates plan for potential quick hire next weekend
Jimbo Fisher the leading candidate for LSU
Coaches Poll: Most feel Jimbo Fisher leaves for LSU
It’s Starting To Look Like Jimbo Fisher Is LSU’s Next Head Coach, But If So He Won’t Come Cheap…
Report: LSU gives Jimbo Fisher an ‘extremely substantial’ offer
Jimbo Fisher-to-LSU reports now include FSU's coach being offered the job
Followed a few days later by:
Report: Jimbo Fisher turned down $1.5 Million raise from LSU
Jimbo Fisher turned down $6.8 million salary offer from LSU, report says
Report: Jimbo Fisher passed on the LSU job to stay at FSU
The only guy who REALLY knows what's going down is THIS guy: Jimmy Sexton, who is playing everyone.

I can't believe that Sexton is able to wield all of this power. The universities have allowed/enabled this man to dictate most recent coaching decisions and stood-by while salaries have raised to epic proportions... Someone needs to break his monopoly.

Doesn't matter what happened last year or the year before.
Now Jimbo absolutely sucks in the worst way possible and will be a disaster.
Signed, most LSU fans.

Not really. There was a LOUD (not large) portion of our fanbase who said this last year, but i think most of us know he is a good coach. I will be curious what sort of buyouts/guarantees A&M offers him.
I think Jimbo is a damn fine coach, but the guarantees and buyouts he will want is gotta be pushing the limits of worth it. Only time will tell but will A&M fans be happy if in year 3 he's only doing slightly better than sumlin? Then you're stuck. Who knows how it will play out in the end, but i don't see jimbo guaranteeing you any hardware.

Mainly because there is FSU-sided rumor confirmation this time around.
FSU has some of the most well-connected insiders in CFB, whether it's recruiting-related or team-related or coaching-staff related.
There wasn't one FSU insider confirming the fire from the smoke coming out of BR.
That was a bigger red flag for me than three confirmed fvcktards DALSU, LSU Random Hero, and Tigers1234(sp?) that were spreading the same unsubstantiated BS in 2016 just as they incorrectly did in 2015.

Serious question, how many of the people that didn't want Fisher last year have that thought mainly because they preferred to have Herman?

I agree. I think hes a homerun hire, and I don't mind giving him a ton of money to see what happens, but a 10 year contract is playing a dangerous game.

I think it was more of #1 and #2 argument. I would have been happy with either, tbh. I felt that most people were ok with either even if they preferred one over the other. There were VERY FEW (again, just loud) people who preferred O over both Jimbo and Herman.
