Aww. Did we hurt your feelings? Be a man for God’s sake. Don’t piss on my leg and tell me it’s raining. You saddle a preeminent program with a coach who does not have the credentials, I will call that shot out. frick your feelings.

Wrong. He left FSU because he couldn't hack it and the administration/fans were sick of his results. The $75 million also helped.

Didn't hurt my feelings but it's so apparent that you and all the other NegaTigers feelings have been hurt for a long long time. I've never seen so many that live in the past!
Trust me I'm all man, maybe you and the rest need a reality check hoss!

What’s the reality check?
Yes, I know we have a coach without the credentials to lead our program. How am I in denial?

Jimbo is more like a Les Miles clone in terms of success. He sure ain't no Saban clone.

How do you predict an upcoming season?
How do you evaluate coaching abilities?
Just curious as to why basing predictions and evaluations off what has been presented up to present day is wrong.
If you owned a business, do you hire based off what a person promises, or their experience, back ground and credentials?

He was satisfied at FSU, but they grew tired of him. And making that much money with a ton of backing from the university at A&M? That was a no-brainer. A&M ordinarily would not even be considered a lateral move from FSU, but the way they support their program it is now easily a top 10 job in the country with resources, Texas to recruit from, loyal fan base and playing in the SEC.

He also said it’s never about the money.

That was before he got offered railroad and oil money from A&M. He went from rich to super rich. From vacationing in Hawaii rich to a summer home in the Hamptons rich.

Fisher never would have been satisfied with being the HC at LSU
Please also take a moment and tell us why Tom Herman sucks. After all..the point of this thread is to diminish the alternatives to what we now have, right?

Fisher never would have been satisfied with being the HC at LSU. He wasn't satisfied at FSU, and was always was wanting more like Saban did at LSU. Saban kept flirting with going to the NFL 2002-2004, which hurt recruiting and got old with the fan base each year. Skip Bertman and LSU board had to then give him a raise each year to satisfy his ego. The truth is had Fisher came to LSU, LSU would have been faced with him going elsewhere as well. I Love this Quote: "I never had any intentions of leaving Florida State," Fisher said. "After (A&M athletic director Scott Woodward) contacted me, and I saw his vision and researched the resources at A&M, it was a no-brainer. There was an opportunity and a challenge here that I just couldn’t pass up."
You should feel bad for this post!
Way to put things into context!
I guess Bertman was telling lies about Saban wanting to come back after NFL...

Easy, you let the upcoming season play out then you evaluate. This upcoming season, not last years, not 12 years ago, this 2018 season
I'll say it again as I have been saying, if he crash and burns this year I'll be the first in line in wanting him fired. What I will not and refuse to do is to go full retard day after day after day. Give the man a chance.
I think what the majority on here are refusing to see is just how far Miles let this program slip!

Enough of this shite.
There's a reason those of us who have harped on this for nearly 2 years now have done so, and that's because the best indicator of future success is past results. There's a REASON you hire the best available candidate when you can...because time after time that method has proven to be the most likely to get the best results. not fool proof...but the highest probability of success. It's why we attempt to recruit the best players and not recruit high school bench warmers in the hopes that they will one day grow into being SEC caliber players.
Instead, we hired a man who had a 10-25 career head coahcing record in our very own division in the SEC...and are told to WAIT AND SEE if it all works out. To GIVE HIM A CHANCE.
For frick's sake...we could have hired local high school coach, paid him a few millions less and WAITED TO SEE if that experiment would work or not if we didn't care AT ALL about his past success/failures. Would we then have idiots here telling us to just give him time and the only way we'd know if it would all work out in the end is to wait until the end?
If our current coach was named Bill Thompson and he was from Idaho, there's not a fricking chance as many of our fans would be flaking for him as hard as they are if he'd have brought the same shitty resume to the table as our current coach did. And if that's the case (and it fricking is) what does that say about those defending this hire day after day?

Of course we’re going to let the upcoming season play out. We actually don’t have a choice.
But, this is a message board for discussing LSU sports. We like to discuss what may happen and where we feel confident and our weaknesses.
Not everything is always perfect or positive.
We have weaknesses, we have positions that are concerns. We have coaching concerns. Its going to happen.
The way to predict or talk about an upcoming season is to discuss who was here last season, who did what and who’s capable of improving or may not contribute.
It’s part of talking football.
I think if people want to just “let it play out” then why are y’all here?
You have to know that people may be discussing things that you don’t like, because you just want to “let it play out”
Just log off and “let it play out”, stop debating football if it bothers you that people have opinions.

Jimbo is 25-12 over the last three years.
Over the last three years
He was 10-3 the two seasons prior to last year, that’s 20-6 (compare that to 15-6 record for Orgeron since taking over).
Then last year happened when he went 5-6 after his QB got hurt week 1 and it was clear the relationship between him and the administration was broken beyond repair due to the LSU saga the year before.
That was following up a three year stretch where he went 12-2, 14-0, and 13-1.
Again, the pathetic losers in our fanbase that try to knock a coach with the resume of Jimbo Fisher, or Les Miles for that matter, while at the same time trying to build up Ed fricking Orgeron are what makes this fanbase comic relief for the whole country to see
