This was so easy that LSU should be paying me

At the end of the season, interview these guys:

1) Ed Orgeron
He's actually got a great opportunity here....beat Alabama, and he's in

2) Jimbo Fisher.
obvious...maybe he's interested?

3) Tom Herman
obvious...maybe he's interested?

4) Lane Kiffan
why not? his offenses at Alabama look pretty good lately. Maybe with some of the Saban guidance, he can be a good head coach now?

5) Steve Sarkisian
He was doing a good job with Washington and USC before his little drinky-drinky problem. Maybe if LSU makes him promise to stay sober in Baton Rouge.....................................................................................................

6) Major Applewhite
who is this guy?? no one knows??? O. Coordinator for U. of Houston, born in Baton Rouge. Why not? especially if you can't get the above guys?

7) Mike MacIntyre
What?? who is this guy?? Just the coach of the 3-1 Colorado Buffs that had Michigan on the ropes and just beat Oregon. Hmmmm

If you are Joe Alleva, please message me in private and we can discuss compensation

Rex Ryan...

Rex Ryan belongs in college football IMO

Rehire Les Miles... point of reference, see Georgia.

Larry Fedora

Mark Dantonio, ala Saban in 1999.

I don't see Patterson's name on these wish lists any more. I guess people finally have accepted he's going to close out his career at TCU.

I've always seen Patterson as more of a defensive guy...TCU has had good offenses, but nothing magical

LSU needs an offensive spark

ugh, that's just more of what they have....you saw what Alabama did to Michigan State in the playoff....

LSU needs offensive firepower....they continually put underperforming WRs in the NFL. It's time someone starts using them

meh....Larry is a good pick, but he's gotta really want more $$$

I don't necessarily think LSU is all that much better than North Carolina as a school...ya their football is better. North Carolina is a decent athletics department though. You'd have to make that decision solely for more $$$, and maybe Fedora would be happy making way more $$$

I'd hate to see Kiffin or Gundy.

The Righteous Reverend Houston Nutt. He's like SEC West Pokemon.... gotta catch 'em all!

I'd rather have Mike Leach. He can build a helluvan offense.

I'm again of the Pirate as well

It's difficult for a place like LSU to hire a head coach that isn't coming off a great season, because the media and boosters will roast them if they hire a guy who was 6-6 or 7-5 in 2016. If they don't get someone who wins at least 9 this year, they're almost better off with a coordinator or someone who isn't coaching in CFB this season.

^On that note Golden & Schiano are available.

Vodka, you are plenty evil. That would cause meltdown of timeless proportions at Boulder: "We were on our way to natties EVERY YEAR until those wicked Tigers snagged our guy!"

Sincerely,
fan of a team that got absolutely CURBSTOMPED in a rivalry game this year

You can add Art Briles to that list.
