    WJOX radio and Fox6 News (WBRC-TV) are reporting that today’s planned interview with LSU offensive coordinator Jimbo Fisher was cancelled. Sports reporter Rick Karle said the UAB search has now shifted its focus to Neil Callaway, who was interviewed Wednesday.

    Thanks primo, I don't know if you are aware but here's the reason it was cancelled. Maybe we'll get to keep our coaches in tact for our run next year....we aren't out of the woods yet but the odds improve every time a position is filled. :thumb:

    I don't get how the link explains why the meeting was cancelled.

    Doesn't Fisher make $400,000 as an OC at LSU?

    He should take the job at the same salary if he wants the job bad enough.

    Yeah Fisher's asking price is $600 K and they can only approve $400 K.

    Conspiracy theorists are saying the Bama Board of Trustees wants Fisher to go to Alabama as Nick Saban's OC at the tune of $700 K.

    The Nick Saban train is still steaming along!

    That would be a good place for him to start.

    The FSU OC job is his if he wants it. The pay isn't as much but I think he'll take it before returning to LSU.
