I know some of the fan base wants Fisher, others want Herman. Both have and are continuing to develop quarterbacks at an extremely high level. I watched a couple of games of offense for both Florida St & Houston.

SIMILARITIES= Like to use a designed QB run following the RB/HB. Zone read/option plays are a big portion of the offense. Base set in offense seems to be 3 wide with an H-back out of shotgun.

DIFFERENCES= Herman rarely uses I-formation while Fisher will occasionally use it. When they completely spread it out, Herman will go 5 wide, while Fisher likes mostly 4 wide. Consider Fisher modern prostyle and Herman spread.

I am by no means an expert but with little film study, I picked up little things like I mentioned. Both will be successful if hired by LSU and use SIMILAR sets. NOW LET'S HIRE ONE AND WRECK THE SEC!!!

I think Jimbo's would take a lot more muscle up front than Herman's to have success vs Bama.

I know one thing and that is the rest of the SEC coaches do not want LSU to land Herman or Jimbo. I'm sure they are all saying a silent prayer asking for us to remove the interim tag from O or hire a second tier candidate.

I'm impressed with what Herman has done with Ward from Tyler.

I think Herman's offense here would likely resemble what we saw at Ohio State more than what Houston is doing right now, but with that said, I agree wholeheartedly with this:

jimbo's offense at flu has been extremely multiple, two tight I one play, 4 wr trips on the next. i personally think his is the best scheme fit here

I like Herman's offense because I believe its better at maximizing production out of lesser talent, but this is LSU so it doesn't matter

Wouldn't be surprised if some of their boosters are making donations to the Florida State Athletic Foundation.

Agree. He is extremely multiple and has success as HC at a big time program. Really we cant go wrong with either.
