I think Herman and Fisher were the only real candidates that were asked.  Supposedly (according to folks in La.) Fisher withdrew his name when he found out Herman was the main candidate.  LSU lost the bidding war to Texas for Herman.  Fisher had already moved on.  Ed O. was the hometown boy that made LSU look pretty good last year.

I don't think Fedora or Patterson were ever considered.  Art Briles was for sure not.  Bobby P. would not have been considered. I don' think it was a big coaching search.  Only two in the running really.

They can do whatever they need to do.
They found out last year no one was interested in a job in the SEC west, probably change when Saban retires.

That's a list of possible replacements for Miles, not a list of people who turned LSU down when offered the job.

I remember Herman and Jimbo Fisher turning LSU down.  Orgeron apparently blew them away with his plans for the future.  I think the insinuation that no one besides Miles wanted the job is misleading.

LSU fans don't like hearing the truth. Even when they know it. Ed O is NOT a Head Coach.

What's worse is that he has been a head coach...... in this division...... and failed miserably.

Yep. And he recruited well at Ole Miss too. Still couldn't win.

  I'm gonna be honest here.  I've always pulled for LSU.  Let me explain..   We weren't in the same conference.   I had family from New Orleans and Baton Rouge who took me to games when I was a kid.  I loved going.

I never had a conflict with it til we were in the SEC.  My family have been Hog fans since time ...well a long time.  My Dad hitch hiked from South Arkansas to attend the UofA.  His name, my uncle, my aunts name are etched in those sidewalks.

Im not sure why I feel such glee LSU  got their ass beat. But I do. Go Troy.

Are you saying shots should not be taken at Arkansas' coaches? If so, you are too fragile and weak.

Ha ha...by all means. Continue the "fire everyone" tirades. But there's 1,000 threads about that agenda, yet someone (like myself) just get tired of not being able to read a thread that has NOTHING to do with the Hogs without the CBB haters still managing to come in and taking their shots.

It's just tiresome. That's all.

Also, LSWho SUCKS!!!
Did they get you to trade a walk on part in the war, for a lead role in a cage...?

When you get tired, you ignore it. So you must not be tired enough.
I don't want you to agree with me because you're weak. I want you to agree with me because you know I'm right.

haha I can't believe it either. I think we're witnessing the equivalent of our ULM vs Arkansas game
I agree
If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.

Yep, he's their John L. Though not nearly as bad. They know it, but don't like outsiders saying it.

Yeah, the SEC has really fallen off.  Alabama is far-and-away the best looking team in the league.  UGA and Auburn have both looked good, but I'm not sure either are CFB playoff contenders; UGA might be, but that remains to be seen.

The SEC West has gone from being by far the toughest division in football to having five mediocre to below average teams (Mississippi State, A&M, OM, Arkansas, LSU) in the span of two years.

whoops.

Etling is garbage.

Orgeron will still have a job. They can't fire two guys consecutively in two years at the beginning of the season.

They'd never find a replacement.

A tigerdroppings poster had an idea - hire Miles back and then you'll only have to pay Ed O to not coach there.

Just saw on ESPN - Troy University sent LSU a tweet

"Hey, LSU thanks for having us down for homecoming!!
We really enjoyed it!!"

Hilarious!!
