So who was realisticly available? You now have a coach who has one of the top staffs in the nation. LSU chose at some point to do something different than the conventional.

LSU chose to invest in the entire staff instead of one guy. I like the direction of what LSU is doing and I promise you that if it is successful you will see other schools adopt this philosophy of staff over figurehead.

Basicly, LSU decided that Orgeron/Aranda/Canada and staff was a better deal than hiring an inflated Jimbo and letting him redo the staff or hiring Herman and rolling the dice. I agree and support what LSU is trying and I think it will work. We will see.

Fisher was not serious about coming to LSU. Herman wanted Texas. We don't have search firms at our disposal to give us information on available coaches and their accomplishments. But I do find it very hard to believe there was no other option available. We fired Miles mid-season to give us a head start on the coaching search, and we ended up hiring the interm coach.

I agree and I think we will do well this season. But I don't think this is the long term answer. Aranda/Canada will get better offers, maybe head coaching offers. Then we have to hope we hire a better replacement.
