Josh McDaniels @ LSU?

drwho · Nov 20, 2016

If I were Joe Alleva, I'd make a run at Patriots OC Josh McDaniels. Can you imagine what he could do with the weapons that LSU has? All he'd need to do is recruit a QB, and keep the D-staff mostly intact.

It would be an interesting choice. But I don't think the fan base would be excited about it, especially with names like Tom Herman and Jimbo Fisher being tossed around as possibilities.

McDaniels seems like a pro-only coach. LSU should go for someone who has excelled at the college level. Tom Herman is the hot name right now, but Jimbo Fisher would be better as he has proven he can lead and maintain a college program at a high level. I hope LSU keeps Orgeron tbh.

Wouldn`t be surprised if yesterday didn`t pretty much do it ( not being selected, that is ) for coach O.

That did it for him.

I guess I don't understand the Jimbo thing. If he can't dominate at FSU with the talent the state has to offer and playing in the ACC, why would he be a better coach at LSU or anywhere else for that matter. I could have won with Rapeis Winston and a complicit oversight committee, police department, state judicial system etc ... similar to Cheezit with Cammie Cam. That formula seems to be hire a man-boy and give him the keys to the asylum, keep the cops away until he goes pro.

Herman is going to Texas. While it sounds a bit conspiracy theoryish hear me out.

Big 12 can't have an official conference championship game unless they get 2 more teams. It's been an issue since the cfp started. They finally voted this past summer and shot it down. Houston was one of the teams on the list to come in. Why block the vote....amongst other reasons, Texas is about to take their head coach

I am with you. Jimbo Fisher is not the coach everyone gives him credit for being. Reminds me of Mark Richt.

Because it became evident the Big 12 was never serious. They didn't even actually discuss the issue. It all started when OU's David Boren made a random comment.

He sure didn't do much with the Broncos. I halfway thought he was trying to destroy the franchise for Belichick while he was there.

Nope, but I think a second go round with Belichick and that previous experience would help a lot. And, if you're looking for a dramatic departure from Les Miles . . .

I'd kick the tires, at least.

I agree, thats about a bad of a loss as ol Les with the Barn. Can't lose like that at home. Especially when arguably they had the better team.

Not trying to stir the pot, but it wouldn't surprise me if they interviewed/offered Kiffin.

One of my fears actually.

Especially if he decided to keep Aranda. That would be a seriously good combination with the talent that they could recruit to LSU.

Idk...this hasn't been one of Kiffins best years play calling.

Ehh. Every year we have some complaints, which end up being wrong because he continues to use plays to setup other plays as the season progresses.

I think fisher would be a fool to leave the ACC for the brutal SEC West. But from an LSU fan perspective, would you be more excited for an NFL OC that hasn't been a college coach since 1999 or a former LSU assistant who has won a national title in the last 5 years?

Given that Fisher has a title and is an offense minded coach, he's a more palatable hire for an AD. Fans would eat it up and boosters would be less likely to second guess your choice.

drwho · Nov 21, 2016

I could see Kiffin going to LSU. You have to assume that they're realistically starting with their 4th choice for their search.
1. Fisher-not leaving FSU
2. Herman-Texas coach
3. Coach O didn't win out, lost to Bama
4. ?

RTR91 · Nov 21, 2016

Jimbo appears to be the #1 choice. Here's a little rundown of some of the choices.

Josh McDaniels @ LSU?
