My thoughts on how this shakes out based upon what I'm hearing from people. Word is that Jimbo will have an open checkbook for his staff.

Head Coach - Jimbo Fisher (5yr $30M)
Offensive Coordinator - James Coley
Running Backs Coach - Frank Wilson (if he doesn't take/offered the Tulane job)
Wide Recievers Coach - Curtis Johnson
Defensive Coordinator - Bo Pelini (still a maybe but has been contacted. Nebraska still pays Pelini $1.536M/yr until Feb 2019 less whatever LSU pays him)
Defensive Line Coach - Ed Orgeron (going to need a pay raise to keep him from taking Syracuse)
Strength and Conditioning - Moffit stays but Vic Viloria is coming with Jimbo as well.

Haven't heard anything about LB, OL, TE, DB, Special Teams.

Announcement being made Sunday for Jimbo.

That's the best staff in football if it works out.

I don't think anyone can "confirm" any of this but it sure is a lot of smoke to not be any fire.

What happened to Muschamp?
Not thrilled about Pelini. Remember all the bitching.

I'm hearing Sunday/ ASAP for two reasons.
1. To instill confidence in any other recruits from decomitting.
2. This FSU report that "broke" today was FSU's way of muddying the water after last ditch effort to retain Jimbo failed. Jimbo is pissed about it and ready to bolt.

Admittedly, that report sent out by FSU was what convinced me that at the very least, Jimbo is a done deal.

I would have to think that James Coley would be a real possibility to join back up with Jimbo with everything going on at Miami.

what was weird is seeing moffitt retweet the report about the FSU rape allegations during Jimbo's tenure there (and then delete it).

Didn't FSU or someone with them actually release it earlier.
