A smokescreen for what though? Keeping Les? Hiring some risky inexperienced or unproven coach? Unless they're getting a Sean Payton or at least a Nick Saban, a phony "Jimbo to LSU" narrative wouldn't make sense.

My source couldnt confirm who had the leak but did say it was assumed thay the AD thought the article would build some media attention in justifying firing Miles, others speculating including the boosters and Miles Freudian slip and ESPN is what caused a diversion ploy immediately afterwards to quiet down the chatter, this also is why Alleva did not address it and rather had the SID continue the damage control/diversion

Jimbo is likely a done deal it appears but all the media attention made the boosters worry about another Saban to Texas fiasco so they put out false reports that stated the deal with Jimbo fell through.

Just wait until after the game tomorrow. Most of this will likely be cleared up then.

If it's near the 7 Million mark, all I'm saying is that there will be a huge backlash. Well, until our first title or Bama victory.

Les Miles wasn't Charlie Strong. His win percentage and record is too good to pay these figures.

I'm telling y'all.....LSU is gonna catch a lot of flap for this unless Jimbo is winning every year JUST like Saban is doing.

DALSU called the Steele hire when half of us were laughing and joking about it, thinking no way that Les would hire such a sorry-arse DC. He called it when the other half of the board had never heard of Kevin Steele.

It's either skewed logic or genius, depending on what unravels in the coming days.

I'm just stating what others have been saying. This info is not coming from me in any way. I don't know anyone with inside information. I couldn't even tell you if we are keeping the current groundskeeping staff at LSU.

Just sit back and think about it, when it's all said and done, Alleva will be left as the smartest man in the room, and most ranter will continue to look like the know it all fools weve come to love lol

David L. says there was communication as late as Tuesday of Les staying along with Coach O, Steele, Frank and Cory. rest of the staff out. Those talks stalled.

Are you kidding me?

ESPN cited UF boards on Jimbo's ex banging Jacobs. Of course there is a staffer or intern scouring FB, TD, Twitter, etc looking for info.

Doesn't mean it won't be vetted before aired, that's why they always have the simple narrative initially. You have to be kidding yourself if you don't think some facet of local or national media isn't filtering though this. Easily your posts and mine will be ignored.

Love the term "could" wtf is that, we are firing a top tier coach on a "could"...better damn well be a "will"...this sounds more and more like we are just going to look for the best available once we fire Les, instead of having a pen in Jimbos hand at that exact moment.
