He'll fit in well at Blacksburg or Austin. Should have taken the Michigan job 3 years ago.

Les called a team meeting today, then gave a press conference. He gathered two networks to the campus, just to hear him say, “I’m STAYING”.

Florida State's Jimbo Fisher is their top target, but they are also reportedly interested in Clemson coach Dabo Swinney, TCU coach Gary Patterson and even former NFL coach Jon Gruden.

Those three coaches now face much easier competition than the SEC west. Will Fisher or Swinney really want to leave jobs where they typically have one major test each year, against each other? Patterson probably faces more good teams each year, but still the SEC west has been generally agreed to be the toughest division in the nation considering the teams that must be played every year.

It might be difficult to improve over what Miles has done there. He's had outstanding talent year-after-year, but shaky quarterbacking has been a problem most year of his years at LSU.

He’s won, what, like 80% of his games at LSU and has delivered two national championships? Yeah, what a loser.

I get that the alumni and donors want all-winning, all the time, but good gosh. Other coaches would do well to avoid that fickle mess.

They should get rid of him. They should listen to the malcontents and to the wisdom of the disgruntled administration. Even if you have a Hall of Fame and National Championship coach like Tennessee had with Philip Fulmer, getting rid of such a person will usually result in a much better record and more championships, just like what has happened in the post-Fulmer years at Tennessee.

Oh, wait...

Les was never offered the Michigan job. Word is he isnt exactly welcomed in A2. Rumor has it that there is a lingering spat between him and lloyd carr.

I think Les Miles may seriously consider retirement from coaching—his coaching style is totally out of step with the way they play college football currently.
