Why are we paying him $75M? Can he win without a "James Winston" at QB? His ACC record was declining when we hired him.. so why? Why is his buyout so high? Did he approve the cups with the scores? These are all excellent questions that need answers.

Can one of you LSU fans... don't care who. It can be one of the older fans or one of the thousands of new bandwagon fans... find and ask someone that knows the answer to all of the questions and criticism being posted on the Rant about Jimbo Fisher? I think you know where to find the guy that knows. Yes, the guy that targeted Jimbo, the guy that negotiated the salary, the guy that presented it to the board of regents. Yes that guy... the CURRENT AD for LSU.

You guys should really ask someone with firsthand knowledge.

Woodward was always coming home. He just felt like giving aTm a good fricking before he left.

Sure.. tell yourself that if it makes you feel any better about Woodward's deal with Fisher.

I don't have any. I think Jimbo is the right guy for us. I have no issues so far with him.

The point of the post is try to deal with the thousands of Fisher comments by LSU fans each month. You guys ask the same dumbass questions every day. Ags on the board can't answer them so why don't you guys ask someone you trust and that works for LSU now. He definitely has the answers since he was directly responsible for the hire.

I like Fisher. End of story.

Fisher is not the worst guy you could have hired. Trust me. We hired the WORST guy you could have hired.

But, in all honesty, he seems like a coach on a downward trajectory unless he lands another all time talent. Maybe it was his wife getting hosed down by half the state of Florida. Maybe he is just one of those great coordinators that slowly wilts under the intense pressure of a P5 head coaching gig.

For whatever reason he just seems like he's going through the motions. Yes, he's landed some really good recruiting classes. Sumlin landed some really good recruiting classes as well.

When I look at Jimbo right now I don't see a coach hell bent on building a national title contender. I see John Chavis. A tired man collecting his paycheck.

All speculation and opinion.

Like I said... there is 1 guy that really knows. LSU fans ought to be asking him if genuinely concerned. They know where to find him.

Y’all are so ate up with trying to beat us that I doubt it had as much to do with Woodward as it did your board.

You got Chavis, you tried to get Aranda. We tried to get Jimbo and it was pretty common knowledge that he was trying to frick us with the same deal. We didn’t fall for it, and y’all like to brag about deep pockets (and empty trophy cases), so Woodward got the ok to make a ridiculous contract/hire.

Woodward is a hell of a guy.

The only reason he left for LSU is because John Sharp wouldn't give him the respect and raise he deserved for hiring Jimbo and Buzz. Sharp is a little shite. Woodward didn't want to leave, but LSU gave him an offer he couldn't refuse and Sharp was an arrogant a-hole about it.

Aggies main problem is lack of talent. Sure Texas is huge, but it is subdivided excessively. Texas, Oklahoma, LSU, A$M, Arkansas, Oklahoma State, then the lower tiered Texas schools like Baylor, Tech, Houston, etc. etc..

Jimbo is not the recruiter the aTm machine thought they bought!

The real comparison. The 7 and 1/2 Million Dollar Man was hired before O!

Now Aggies 2nd problem. They thought escaping big brother Long Horns would make everything all better. Now little Aggay has two daddies (LSU and Bama) and a big brother Aubie!

Remember, you cannot spell Mediocre without the M in A$M!

You might want to take a look at recruiting rankings before trying to make this point.

Aggay optimism! Adorable!
They always restart so happy and gay.
They get an initial bump and celebrate! Then the mediocrity sets in. Then after 5 years they blame the last Wonder Boy coach, brag about their money to each other, and go Wonder Boy shopping again.

C’mon man, we’ve all seen this before.

SEC all time winning percentages (good and bad years, plus 2nd rate non SEC conferences)
The big 6 in current order:
1-Alabama
2-Tennessee

3-LSU
4-Georgia (often flips with LSU)

5-Florida
6-Auburn (often flips with Florida)

The mediocre middle:
7-Texas A&M
8-South Carolina

Fisher is a good coach. A&M just paid about $3 million per year too much, and guaranteed about 3 years too much. I don’t believe in passing judgement on a coach after two years unless it’s a shite-show. I will fall out of my chair if Jimbo wins three or more natties in the next ten years, which is what A&M is paying him for, but it wouldn’t shock me if he wins an SEC championship and gets in the playoffs.

I am not a big Woodward sycophant either. He has never done anything in hius career to make me think he’s exceptional. However, anything to get that professional cuck, Alleva, out of here had my support.

Of course, if Jimbo wins the next three natties I would be a little less shocked than I currently am by Orgeron’s success. I thought his hiring marked the end of the good era of LSU football. It just goes to show that people will fool you.

You're telling me our boy went undercover and saddled you with the mother of all poison pills before coming home and bringing the GOAT offensive assistant from NOLA so we could win a title? And this is supposed to be a dig at us?
