Any chance he might take Ogre's job if things go south, or will they clean house?
I would imagine Aranda's buyout is pretty good, considering his outrageous salary.
I think he's stated he doesn't want HC just yet. Most around here in BR believe he wants an NFL DC gig.
I can honestly see them going with an offensive minded coach next time. With all the Offensive and QB issues they have had,I can see them going that route. They tried to with Herman and Fisher. I really could see Lane doing well there and getting the fan support.

I couldn't image it sitting well with the fanbase if they hired a 1st time HC. The players campaigned for O to get that job. LSU went into panic mode after Jimbo bailed and Herman wanting the Texas job. That's exactly why you don't let players have that say. O is a great recruiter, players coach and good defensive coach but is on the Butch Jones level as a HC. I could see a Kiffin, Fuente,Gundy type Hire next go around. Kiffin would fit in perfectly at LSU and bring them an offense they badly want. Plus he can recruit and hire an elite staff. Then for bonus measure he would get under the skin of Alabama fans. That would reinvigorate that rivalry. I know a lot of Vol fan's don't like him, but the guy can Coach QB's, knows offense, can recruit with the best of them and knows the value of having great Coach's around him. He tends to be his own worst enemy at times but there's no arguing his ability to develop QB's and score points. I would greatly enjoy seeing him be a thorn in Saban's side and the Alabubba fanbase. Not saying he would consistently beat Saban, but he could be a serious nuisance like he was with Urban.
I don't get the Kitten love around here. The Raiders, USC, and his record here all say he isn't a good college head coach. He is a great coordinator and recruiter, if you are ok with living on the edge of being under major NCAA investigation. I say let Joey Freshwater keep sending his sarcastic tweets at this fanbase from I've never heard of it Florida Something Community College. The guy can't get out of the way of his own ego long enough to be successful the right way.
