From the beginning, LSU had 2 targets -- Jimbo Fisher and Tom Herman. It's pretty simple to see what took place. Fisher and his agent Jimmy Sexton priced themselves off the table. LSU was not going to pay out almost $70 million for 10 years. As everyone thought, Herman would take Texas over LSU. Charlie Strong will be fired later this morning. Herman has told LSU that he is leaning toward Texas.

By his body of work, Orgeron moved ahead of all of the other candidates other than Fisher and Herman. Being a Louisiana guy certainly helped him. Orgeron is a better choice than the Fedora, Fuente, etc. of the world.
