I appreciate most everyone's comment. It seems like the consensus is he won Natty with crab legs, can recruit well, and is a safer bet that Fleck or Herman. But no concrete definitive reason like, "he doesn't take bullshite, he's a hardass, he's got the balls to open it up" was given. There were some that said he can develop QB'a - which is a huge positive. But as for the rest of the excuses, I'm sorry, this sounds like more Les Miles bullshite to me and I'm still not sold.

Just my knuckle-dragging opinion FWIW. Again, I'm not trolling, I just wanted to feel good about this hire if it comes to fruition.

I still think I would rather see Herman, Fleck, or even Briles (cough) before we blow 6 million on leftover crab legs.

What the hell is this supposed to mean? "He's a hardass" is definitive?

The reason Jimbo's the main choice is this: he's the best available proven winner, at this level, that we can get. Most programs, Texas included, wouldn't be able to get him out of Tallahassee, so he's not pursued by them.

For some reason, LSU has the opening. Don't second-guess and go for some MAC or AAC coach, take the big prize.
