I think Herman is a great coach as well, and I would love to see him at LSU, but remember he plays Louisville this year, so if he get's blown out too, are you going to apply the same statement?

thank you. we have, as all fanbases do during a coaching search, a mixture of fad/hot names, shortsightedness, wing & prayer, familiarity/comfort zone, etc driving us individually. Just like this country's politics, there is no middle ground and there's a lot of if you don't agree with me on every point, you are against me and therefore my enemy and should be attacked. Can't stop it, here and in politics, but it is annoying.

It has to be Herman first. If it falls through, go to Jimbo. If Herman comes here and flops, you go back to Jimbo or the candidates that are available at the time. I have a hard enough time seeing Jimbo leave for LSU, much less another school.

agreed. to an extent. Can use any names you want in that statement. There is nothing wrong with that strategy overall. It may happen that way, there are no guarantees with any name.
