Yaw Yaw over Fisher? I think the bookies are a little hung over today.

Bkaaw•91 months

I guess they're betting on Lsu winning out or finishing with 1 good loss ???

Jumbo_Gumbo•91 months

When coach O wins out, this list will not matter.

FournetteForEver7•91 months

Coach O or no go!!!

KiwiHead•91 months

If Charlie Strong is let go by BEVO, Texas will throw the bank to get Tom Herman. If Fisher loses another game, the people in Tallahassee might get a little nervous...but if Yaw Yaw wins every game except Bama, he goes up to the top of the list.

FournetteForEver7•91 months

By the looks of this LSU can just forget about a championship ever again

Street Hawk•91 months

We could always rehire Miles. Am I right?

angola20•91 months

I'm assuming you're being irrational just for the sake of being irrational. If you are serious, who would be your choice?

TigerFanFromBama•91 months

Just saw a segment on ESPN where Dana Holgerson from WVU was mentioned for the LSU job

rob62•91 months

Lol.

semperfitolsu•91 months

So you might as well say it's either Herman or O!!!

Thacian•91 months

If not O, hermam,patterson or briles...hell no on fisher and esp not kiffen...the rest is meh

Mouth•91 months

no Charlie Strong?

BTRDD•91 months

I O wins out, he will have proved that he can both recruit and win in the toughest conference. Herman would be a higher risk since he hasn't done either.

FournetteForEver7•91 months

Herman would be the biggest mistake LSU could make

VesperiaLSU•91 months

While I agree that Herman hasn't proved himself in the toughest conference yet, most of time in coaching hire you are gonna have to make an informative gamble based on what you already saw. Highly successful and well proven coaches are hard to find and normally cost too much. Urban Meyer was at Utah and unproven before UF offered him the job and let he lead them to 2 NC. Nick Saban was at Michigan State and wasn't considered the best hire for LSU by that time, but you know the rest of the story. Point is, while Fisher might be the less risky hire, Herman has the potential to bring LSU to another level.

Good value on jimbo and the field

alextilley23•91 months

Jimbo

CEO's odds improved exponentially in the past 3 weeks. Would've been smart money to bet a little on him from the start.

colors_of_kings•91 months

Coach O in a rebuilding year after the draft cleans us out? No thank you.

Number 31•91 months

Orgeron was 30-1 just two weeks ago...

Number 31•91 months

Worst bet is Kiffin, IMO. I just can't see him getting the job. If the same logic that's being applied to discount CEO were applied to Kiffin.... Well, you do the math.

eugene1928LSU•91 months

Coach O, especially if he beats the gumps at home. No to jumbo, his defenses generally suck. Herman maybe, but not so fast look at the Navy game.

blueboy•91 months

ONOZ! He lost a game! It's still Houston, after all. It's not like he coached Ohio State to a loss against Navy.

CaliTigerHB•91 months

His defenses suck? Look at his defenses. They are legit. That 2013 defense was absolutely loaded with NFL talent

jayboy504•90 months

What a bunch of BS!! People want to say Tom Hernan's a top notch coach and has this great offense but when he loses to Navy... Oh it just Houston.. BS!! Tom Herman ain't all he's cracked up to be

eugene1928LSU•91 months

Oh yea and FSU cant beat the gumps

CaliTigerHB•91 months

Yea neither can anyone else

4Ghost•90 months

They get their chance next August in Atlanta.

Number 31•91 months

Also, what happened to Bob Stoops? He was among the top 6-7 names Vegas was taking bets on just two weeks ago. Has he moved to 'field' already?

El Campo Tiger•91 months

Tom Herman or bust.

rob62•91 months

Bust

timm6971463•90 months

Campo tiger herman is being handed his butt on the field right now and you and the negatigers are just I ignorant ,oh yea fisher just had a qb now he has nothing !
