There have been plenty of rumors about who might take over as the LSU coach now that Les Miles has been fired. Tom Herman, Art Briles and Jimbo Fisher have been linked to the job since Sunday with none of them confirming any sort of contact though.

Plenty of people have said who they think LSU should go after, but none have gone so far as to "call their shot" and actually make a prediction of who LSU will hire down the road. That is until now, when Colin Cowherd did it on his show.
@ColinCowherd sayin Sabes think LSU is best job in country cuz can recruit south & Tex. Think Jimbo would/should leave for it. Wow. Kelly-SC

While it is a pretty great job and Fisher could recruit for it, he would have to compete against the likes of Alabama, Florida and the SEC West every year. That's considerably harder than playing against the weaker ACC that really only has Clemson as a power rival for the Seminoles.
