The Largest Problem For LSU Fans Is Not Who LSU Will Hire

Some people keep trying to say LSU can't get this coach or that coach and I think outside of a few names (Saban, Urban, etc.) that is folly. It is too early to know any of that. People are just trying to troll and no LSU fan should listen.
I think in this cycle by far the largest problem for LSU fans isn't who might or might not take the job but the length of uncertainty until anyone takes the job.
Fans don't like uncertainty, after moving past the last regime they want to know the future is for sure bright as soon as possible. Most fanbases who fire coaches in December only have a few weeks of uncertainty, while LSU fans will have to face months of uncertainty. Guaranteed.
I don't know the delicate way to say this, but LSU fans aren't known for their patience. As the weeks turn into months the fanbase will demand certainty, to the point they will generate it through a hundred "I have a source and he says for sure its Herman/Jimbo/etc." type rumors that those coaches LSU is targeting will get annoying denying week after week as "journalists" dig that crap up to keep subscriptions and fill a news cycle.
I don't know what the answer is, but it sure feels like the rocky road ahead is the actual road and not where it leads...

Meh, we have football to watch. Hopefully LSU has REAL changes to its offense and they can make things interesting until the end of the season when they announce our new coach. I'd rather them get a leg up on the search and make some inroads behind the scenes. They did it the right way this time IMHO.

For someone that doesn't know the answer, you sure as hell have had a shite ton to say on the subject the last 3 days.

As if that's just an LSU thing...
Seriously? That's society as a whole.

To the realistic and rational LSU fan, you kind of just stated the obvious.
It will die down soon. It was just thrown at us all of a sudden. We knew it was coming but not this quick.
What fans of good college teams are? None. Fwiw, I dont think the rant is an accurate depiction of the average LSU fan that follows football.
Every name under the sun is going to be thrown out there by every idiot reported and blogger. Thats a given but it doesnt help that we are the only vacancy right now.

Then just shut up already.
Don't your boys have a game this weekend? Doesn't your opponent deserve your attention more than LSU fans do?

This. Its crazy how scared you are at the thought of LSU getting herman.
Plet the current staff play out. In the end if O goes on a run it might be even more uncertainty at the end of the season
