Wondering if his freshman lineman son might enter into any decision. My gut is telling me that he is an Ohio guy and only one position could get him to leave here.

I don't believe many folks were afraid of him going to USC, but from what I hear CLF has already told Bohn he is not interested. Has anyone heard anything about possible efforts to expand Nippert to increase attendance and create more dollars to pay coaches?Comment

Coach Ogeron will leave LSU at the end of the season. Will LSU offer the job to Fickell?Comment

^ I would guess that his name comes up but I will bet that he does not take it.Comment

Be confident. Yes, UC is lucky to have Coach Fickell, but it's also an awesome, well-supported job that made it possible for him to be successful. Three out of the last four coaches have done very very well, and if he ever leaves, you can be sure that it will be an incredibly popular position.
If you lose your coach to Ohio State, LSU or USC, whaddya gonna do?Comment

Yep, his name will come up now for every job that opens up and this won't be the last. It's a product of big success. Nobody knows that more than the administration and trustees. You have to work within your means obviously, and you have to hope that his time here has been as positive as it can be for someone in a high pressure job and throw your hat in the ring. He's clearly laid a blueprint, and I hope he's here at least another 5 years at minimum. Having been to Baton Rouge, it's not an area I would want to live over Cincy, but everyone is different. I think Lsu's coaching search unless they already have someone lined up(possible) could be similar to their defensive coordinator search. Lot of big names, but not takers. It will be really interesting if they go on a winning streak over the last half of the season. Could be a lot of second guessing then. Go over to Tiger Rant and look at the number of threads on the search. I would not want to have to work for a fan base as expectant to win big every year.Originally posted by bobestes View PostComment

This is a media viewpoint on the LSU job from Chris Vannini. Luke Fickell does make an apperance here. Oddly enouch Vannini's colleague at the Athletic , Bruce Feldman, did not list Fickell in his options.
