RE: Les Miles' last game at LSU is tomorrow ...
My initial reaction to reports that Jimbo Fisher might be Miles' replacement was that would be two bad decisions in one - LSU's for letting Miles go and Fisher's for giving up an easier route to a championship for a lateral move. On further reflection, I'm not so sure it's all that far fetched.
It's hard to imagine LSU canning Miles without a solid replacement in their pocket. When you look at the current landscape, who else is there besides Fisher? He may well have established a relationship with key boosters during his time there as OC. He is in the process of a divorce, and might be looking for a change of scenery. And just maybe he is growing tired of hearing FSU boosters complain about being stuck in the ACC.
I wouldn't rule it out. And if Saban were to decide to move into his Austin retirement home a little sooner than planned, Fisher might see a chance to establish LSU as the SEC West kingpin in the near future.
Stranger things have happened.
