So the Forty-niners are now 1-6. Chip Kelly needs to be on this list of options if SFO doesn't win more than 3 games.

weeble•90 months

Basing it on the last two hires, no one saw or talked about Saban from Michigan State or Miles from Ok State, it will probably be someone out of left field that no one is talking about. So how about Dabo??

YellaPurp•90 months

I'll take the field

double d•90 months

Herman will be in burnt orange. Dana Holgerson to LSU

19•90 months

It inks the Bama game as a win or else it gets the hose again. Yes, he will, Precious. He will get the hose.

saint tiger225•90 months

I don't understand why everyone thinks O will just continue the winning. Yes, he's doing a good job right now, but no way in hell should he be the permanent head coach at a school like LSU. Herman, Fischer, Fedora would be the top 3. O is a great story, but I don't believe he'd be a great permanent head coach....of course all the idiot ranters will disagree just because he's from Louisiana and "he bleeds purple and gold," idiots.

timm6971463•90 months

Yes you are stupid ,herman , fisher and them other losers you negatigers want are being handed their butts to them on the field of play right now . AS long as we have Ogeron we will do just !

jayboy504•90 months

How the hec would you know if Coach O would be a good permanent coach or not? And you have Fedora on your list?!? Tom Herman is getting his arse handed to him right now and you think he's ready for the SEC?? Give me a guy who is all about Louisiana and I guarantee you that the cam robs, the Landon's and some of our other top notch la. talent won't leave this state. All coach o needs is to find a top notch off coord with creativity in his offense

LovesJesusAndLSU•90 months

Not a fan of Fisher. I believe his success was Jamies Winston. Florida State is heavily underperforming with superior recruiting (like Les), and they face weaker competition every season. He wouldn't stand a chance again Bama and Sagan, or even Houston with Herman!

bringit3210•90 months

I agree. Fisher has been hit or miss at FSU. I'd rather Petrino before Fisher or Fedora. Hope it can work out that Coach O can remain at LSU in some kind of capacity. DC? D-Line Coach? Asst. AD? He's an asset for the program.

LovesJesusAndLSU•90 months

Chris Peterson I believe would be a great choice. As much as I'd love to land Herman, Peterson is more proven. Also, the SEC isn't ready for his offense with LSU athletism!

Placebeaux•90 months

That's not gonna happen. Child has special needs and Washington is the best place for that.

mmtiger•90 months

if kiffen is selected, then put lsu football in a hole. how many other programs has he set back

tbrud•90 months

If Joe Alleva lives up to being the dumb arse that he is, he will string Coach O and all the Les Miles haters and at the end of the season hire some loser and embarrass LSU once again by NOT hiring Coach O, and totally ruin recruiting for about 5 yrs. So y'all got what y'all asked for, haters. Live with it, Joe Alleva is BAD for LSU, his picks so far have panned out right lmao.

GeauxLSUGeaux•90 months

Holy sh*t, are you still pumping Les Miles? Alleva did the right thing and got rid of him. You can throw away your LSU fan card and go cheer for Purdue or wherever Les Miles ends up.

BigRaggedyTiger•90 months

I think alleva did the right thing firing miles. It was time. That being said i think he is the next person that needs to go

The Belk•90 months

I'd rather Kiffen than Fisher.

DJ3K•90 months

Coach Orgeron

I am GLORIOUS•90 months

Herman to Texas, Jimbo to LSU. Book it.

tbrud•90 months

Jim O to LSU wow cause he's doing so well this year, what a joke

Tiger in Texas•90 months

That's what I think as well, as long as Coach O doesn't continue winning. If O wins out, you have to give him the job!

Draconian Sanctions•90 months

I guess "Field" means PJ Fleck

Campaign•90 months

Aranda isn't an option?

atltiger6487•90 months

zero head coaching experience, and he's been at LSU half a season. We can't risk hiring a new guy with no experience. Coordinator and head coach are completely different jobs.

sfltiger•90 months

Ed Orgeron

I am GLORIOUS•90 months

Problem is, he's at -420 to be Texas' new HC

LSUsuperfresh•90 months

I assume that's contingent upon them firing Strong though, correct?

I am GLORIOUS•90 months

Strong will be gone. That's an afterthought

I am GLORIOUS•90 months

Problem is, he's at -420 to be Texas' new HC

evangelfan•90 months

It's going to be Herman. He's too smart and loves football too much to deal with the Texas debacle. The opportunity to lead the university that puts the most athletes in the NFL, and goes head to head in the SEC west each year? Why would Austin even be seriously considered with the LSU job open?

I am GLORIOUS•90 months

Like it or not, UT is still considered the premier college HC gig for whatever reasons. Herman is a Texas guy and got his Masters there.

LSUTigersVCURams•90 months

"Like it or not, UT is still considered the premier college HC gig for whatever reasons." LOL!

tbrud•90 months

We fired the COACH who put more players in the NFL, not the university, who in their right mind would want to coach here after what Alleva did here, the boosters need to coach they think their so good at it. Nobody WANTs to come here until Alleva is gone. Too much shaky ground, never know if you will get fired. Wake up man

hombreman9•90 months

I think Herman goes to Texas and we end up with Strong.

VesperiaLSU•90 months

If we end up hiring Strong, that's pretty much a big F you to all the LSU fans.

Passing Wind•90 months

You hush your mouth with that jinx

Giantkiller•90 months

I will be fricking livid. That would literally be the shittiest hire he could make.

Pls God, let it be daddy herm.

TampaTiger22•90 months

What has Herman done without a running QB? Except lose to navy. If LSU lost to navy everyone would be saying, fire the coach.
