FSU coach Jimbo Fisher has long been linked to the LSU opening, and it appears the Tigers are intent on bringing him back home.
Fisher served as the team’s offensive coordinator for a number of years under Nick Saban and Les Miles before moving on to Florida State, where he has been extremely successful as a head coach.
While Fisher has denied his interest in the job publicly, reports have surfaced that LSU has made a strong offer to the Seminoles coach.

Hanagriff – they're doing a "what will you take?" with Jimbo. Call that what you may, an offer or whatever. He's top choice. #LSU @1045espn
