Just heard that as well. Jimbo won't go now, Herman would be their top pick from what I hear from friends in Tuscaloosa. But, I'll gladly offer them Fatterson 8-)

Sports Illustrated just tweeted it, too.

Shouldn't be surprising. They returned everybody from last year, including a Heisman trophy caliber RB, and they are having problems putting up two touchdowns a game. Miles has always been involved in last minute games, only now he's found himself on the wrong end to teams not coached by games named Saban.

The interesting thing here is the #4 ranked recruiting class that just came up for grabs.

Tom Herman, Chip Kelly, and some people think Dabo or Jimbo are all possibilities. After watching Arizona State go 4-0 and have a possibility at a Pac 12 south championship this year I'm curious to see if Todd Graham gets a look.

if Dabo goes to LSU, would Chad get a serious look to replace Dabo at Clemson?

Always thought Miles would be a great fit here but we gotta give Chad a few more years now that things are turning around.

Why would Dabo leave Clemson for LSU? Makes no sense. They'll pay him at Clemson. I'd think Herman is target #1.

Only thing that makes less sense is a team hiring a guy who has never had a winning season as a HC at a G5 school as their new HC off a season spent in the top 10.

Plus eventually everybody competing against Nick Saban in the SEC West gets fired. Swinney would never take the job

When momentum starts rolling downhill in recruiting-WATCH OUT.

Dabo is Nick's replacement (everyone in Alabama knows that), I'm hearing Herman is their guy. They've got bundles of cash to make it happen if he's interested.
