Turner Gill was who a few people wanted to replace Croom. The next year he was hired at Kansas.

Could you imagine going from Jackie's last 3 years, to Croom's 5 years, and the last 3 years being under Turner Gill? I would've either quit watching college football altogether or slit my wrists by now.

We had a really good chance of landing him the first time. The second time not so much.

I heard that our admin told him they were going to hire a black coach instead andJimbo withdrew his name. Imagine where we would be sitting right now had we hired the guy.

I was REAL close to this situation. We (MSU) were leaning toward hiring Jimbo but he could not, would not interview or discuss while LSU was prepping for a big bowl game. Also his head coach (Saben?) would not allow the discussion. We were leaning toward waiting but continued to interview so as not to have all our eggs in one basket. Fisher got word (rumor, not true) that we were about to hire Croom and to save face he pulled his name. Templeton was asked on TV (Egg Bowl) about Fisher pulling his name and it was totally new news to Templeton. We then went on to Plan B. True story.
