re: Per Yahoo: Tom Herman no longer candidate at South Carolina (withdraws name)

I definitely want him.

I want him more than Jimbo. He's done exceptionally well everywhere he's been. Brilliant OC and brilliant guy all around. Good recruiter as well and we might just get Ed Oliver if we got him.

Of course he'd have to get a solid DC, but if he did, I think he'd be a superstar at LSU with our annual talent.

Agreed. However, I don't think LSU would hire him, and I think he's waiting on UT anyways.

This is where I want to slap you. EVERYTHING Herman has done, you get that with Jimbo as just a baseline.

-Great OC in multiple stops
-National championship as OC
-Great recruiter
-Great QB developer

But that's where the praise stops with Herman. I could keep going on for Jimbo but I'm tired of posting all his accomplishments compared to a guy (Herman) who is pretty much Kevin Sumlin, pre TAMU, at best right now.
