Fickell should be top of the list.

He is the best coach available, the cleanest on the list and also the easiest to get away from his current job.

You're 2 for 3.
I wouldn't be so sure about the "easiest to get away from his current job"

Well, I guess that depends on who else is targeted. I overstated a bit. I should have said he is definitely "Gettable."

Leaving Cincinnati for LSU would be a no brainer for 99 percent of coaches.
Get the feeling Fickell may fall into that 1 percent unless LSU makes an earth shattering offer.

He'll be in the CFP, won't be an option.

They need to show him the money!

He should be top 3 at worst. Very good coach.

Why would that make him not an option?

Fickel should be no 1 and we should be on him hard

I'm thinking USC might have the inside track since the AD at USC, Mike Bohn, is the guy who hired Fickell, at Cincinnati. Supposedly they have a good relationship

You see so many P5 teams that can't play defense and can't tackle.
Then you watch Cincinnati fly around and make Notre Dame look slow.
Fickell was a great recruiter at Ohio State.
Think of the defenses he could put together recruiting the south along with his lifelong ties to Ohio High School programs.
I think Fickell would be a monster at LSU.

I don't think he's going to come but I would be most excited if he ended up being our guy. He's easily the best candidate on the list.

Fickell was the DC on the 2014 Ohio State team that:
- shut out Wisconsin 59-0 in Big Ten Championship
- beat Alabama in the playoff
- shut down Oregon in the title game (an Oregon that dropped 59 in the semifinals vs fsu).
Doesn't hurt either that he mentored under Tressel and Meyer for 16 years.
LSU needs to be laser focused on Fickell and everyone else is plan B.

Nah give me the guy that really put Cincinnati on the map, Brian Kelly. Fickell can take the Notre Dame job
