We've been in enough threads together for u to know who I think it is..., BUT, if it's not that one, I totally agree that Orgeron would be a huge disappointment and embarrassment. All Herman/Fisher talk aside, I truly believe Orgeron has never been a "true" feasible candidate for this job...it was all about sticking to the promise of Giving him a fair shot in the process and I think it also provided a nice degree of leverage as well for LSU in dealing with any coach vying for this job. It also gave the fans and team a new-found energy and motivation which helped the season from going completely south and becoming a dumpster fire.

As for Gundy, he's at the top for me, right behind Jimbo and Herman. He is an excellent coach and a winner. He's won big at OSU, which is a very difficult place to do well at. Give him the resources of an LSU or Bama or Texas and he'd be Top5 coach IMO.

Fedora never resonated well with me, neither did Holgorsen. Seems like too big a change when also taking into account their inevitable "learning curve" and personalities that aren't going to jive here.

After Fisher/Herman/Gundy, I certainly like (in no particular order):
-Fuente (unlikely after 1 year)
-Aranda
-Dantonio (although probably unrealistic given age and philosophy)
-PJ Fleck (really like him, he screams winner to me)


And of course I love the A-Listers that aren't at all possible or realistic (Saban Meyer Harbaugh Peterson Stoops Dabo)

I'm a Gundy guy also. Has done excellent at OSU. Fantastic coach that gets a lot out of his talent. Recruits well.
