There's a lot of smoke about LSU viewing Jimbo Fisher as their No. 1 target to be Les Miles' successor. If Jimbo leaves Florida State to fill LSU's expected head-coaching vacancy, then it would mark the first time that Miami and FSU are looking for new head coaches at the same time since 1971.
Worst case scenario (IMO) would be UM prioritizing offensively-challenged retreads and placing heavy emphasis on South Florida recruiting ties while FSU goes after candidates we should be coveting, i.e. top-tier options potentially looking for a change of scenery (Patterson, Chip, Gundy) and extremely promising up and comers (Herman).
This could mark a turning point for both programs. Hope Jimbo stays at FSU, and we don't limit our search to Charlie Strong and "Miami men."
