still think Tom Herman is the next head coach of LSU.


And you've got some pretty compelling arguments and thoughts about it, which I have enjoyed reading.

After all of my thoughts and attempts to make sense of the very complex and confusing situation, I feel comfortable in saying that I disagree with you, but nonetheless your comments have been pretty well thought out and certainly possible, if not the most logical outcome based on what we've seen and where we're at now. Personally I've just had a sense of something "not smelling right" throughout the last few days, and that includes the entire Herman storyline. (As well as mentions of Holgorsen and Fisher-LSU negotiations ending also being things that didn't pass the smell test to me)

This has definitely been a fun situation to apply critical thinking to with all of the interested parties, motivations, players, and possible outcomes.

Let's just hope that we get one of our guys, and I am very very confident we will. And if for some reason we don't then life and LSU football certainly goes on and we might very well be back here again in 3-5 years doing this all over again.

I know for a fact Herman was in Baton Rouge last Friday.

To be honest, I agree -- some shadiness is afoot.

But, as a fan of the Raiders, I've studied more coaching searches than almost any other football fan would have. The "Herman to Texas" stuff sounds like hedging, IMO. 9/10 when this kind of news breaks, it indicates the end game of a coaching search.

I don't claim to be an insider or anything like that. I also felt like there was a ton of nonsense flowing over the past few days.

I'd be fine with someone like Mike Gundy, as well. There are a number of other coaches I'd be comfortable with.

CEO isn't one of them, though...
