Straight from the horse's mouth.
who is the horse?.. Cause I know for a fact that Briles agent has been contacted by third party affiliates of LSU. Now is he a long shot because of his baggage, sure, but that is what public relations specialist are for. i'll say this again about Petrino, I dont think he is going anywhere, I dont think he is going to screw over Louisville again, this is his second stint there and the second time he has built it up, they gave him another chance and he is grateful for it.. I just dont see him leaving.. Nor do I see Fisher leaving florida State.. Ill even throw in another.. Herman.. I dont think he leaves Houston this year unless Strong is fired.. He has said to many of his coaching buddies that his dream job is Texas.. he is a Texas homer.. Even if you do hire him you have to put a huge texas clause in his contract, he wants to be there.. he doesnt want to come here.. now does he think LSU is alot better than Houston? he sure does, but he knows he can keep winning big in that conference and wait for Strong to leave Texas...

I could actually see Miles eventually landing in Baylor as they try to restore their image.
I sure hope not! I will always pull for Miles as I truly believe he is a fantastic human being with traditional values, but I don't want him anywhere near Louisiana recruits. I want him to have to take a very long plane ride to get to this state. Anyone that under estimates Miles recruiting prowess is a fool. We are going to have to contend with him recruiting here in Louisiana going forward but the more difficult it is to get here for him the better it is for LSU.

How do you know for a fact? Neither will be considered. End of discussion. First poster has it right.

Damn, who pee'd in your coffee today??? Sure have been doing a lot of thinking this morning, don't hurt yourself. From reading your post, the one thing I am happy about - YOU HAVE NOTHING TO DO with the hiring of our next coach!

Well sounds like you know a lot more than Tom Luginbill. I am not sure if you heard but Luginbill was on ESPN last week and emphatically stated that if LSU offered the job to Herman he would take the job and I quote "without blinking" So hmmmm who do I trust to have a better idea of what Herman would do, TigerFan55555 or Lug's who knows Herman personally? Toss up but I think I will go with Lug's since you sound like you don't know shite!!!
If Texas is his dream job then that won't preclude him from going there if and when UT does fire Strong. And if he comes to LSU and has success that just means the offer from UT, again if and when UT fires Strong, will be that much greater. Pretty simple we can't match UT's pockets so if Herman truly wants that gig it will be his no matter what if he continues to be successful. Rumor is UT offered Saban $10mil per yr, let's say Herman came to LSU and had the success at LSU he is currently having. Let's say he won an NC, and Texas really wanted Herman so bad they offered him $10mil do you actually believe we would match that, and more importantly that would be his dream job so no matter what we matched he would probably be gone. So what I am saying is if UT is his dream job than it will always be there for him if he is successful, which I believe he will be.
Also if LSU were to put a "Texas" clause in his contract they would be idiots. All that clause will do is exactly what the "Michigan" clause did for Miles at LSU, cost us more money!!!
Also regarding Herman, LSU is arguably a Top 10 job in the country and a lot of pundits would say top 5. I personally believe it somewhere around numbers 5-7, so if the pundits are correct passing up that job to wait and hope a coach at another school fails, is not very bright and Herman strikes me as a pretty bright guy!

Well first off, I dont know who died and made you king of an internet message board but you are sorely mistaken, we can discuss whatever we want to on here.
second off, Alleva is a puppet, he can say what he wants but he is going to listen to the money people, the hiring firm and many other voices on this decision..
3rd I work with Briles new agent and his staff, Im in a related field.
Are they aware of the baggage of course, but inquiries have been made to PR firms on how they could handle the hire if they so choose to do so..
they know he is the best hire because he has built two programs, its the ability to build that outweighs most other things because it includes so many other things.. Examples are Saban, Meyer and Harbaugh.. all have built two programs or more.
they are trying to figure out a way in which it could be done or if it can be done and will continue searching other candidates..
My dark horse is still Chad Morris, unless Baylor gets him first...

3rd party affiliates don't make the hire. The real decision makers are not looking in their direction at all.

How did the Clause cost LSU Money?
As I have said before, the season has to play out for Herman, if Strong has a bad year, they will go after and get herman, if he has a so so year, herman may stick around another year and wait.
I really cant make out all the other mumbo jumbo that you typed...

um... thats why you put the clause in there...

He may not want this job, he will have his pick.. although i do agree we are in the 5-7 range for jobs..
time will tell and Texas's season will say alot.. lets just say we want Texas to win this year..

No I want him here because i think he is the top coach we could get. I think what he has done and accomplished far outweighs anyone else.. The ability to build a program from nothing and make them dangerous to play against to me is the sign of a outstanding coach.

He may not be, the PR would be difficult to handle.. but it wouldnt last long when he goes 11-1 and gets to the playoff, people wont care..
I think its a 10% chance, a chance worth discussing.. still greater chance than the other idiots saying Saban/Meyer/Harbaugh/Belicheck etc...

The Michigan clause had nothing to do with Les' buyout. So what are you talking about exactly?

I have a hard time believing that LSU would hire the Rapist In Chief. I don't see it. Y'all aren't a desperate, rogue program like Louisville or Baylor or UNLV in basketball back in the day or SMU in the 80s. Briles has more baggage than just being in charge of the institutional coverup of rape at Baylor, he has a terrible rep among TX HS coaches as having been dirty in multiple ways going back to when he coached at Stephenville. The guy is dirty, dirty. He is another Petrino in attitude and action. You don't want him running your program.
