Another view from a LSU student who grew up rooting for the Maize

I have enjoyed reading the viewpoints of LSU fan nation about Les and Michigan. First of all, Les is an awkward Michigan man amongst the old time boosters, because of the "incident" with Moeller. But the fact that Moeller was an idiot and got himself fired, really kind of made a lot of people forgive Miles for whatever may have happened.
I am surprised that people want Miles around. He was close to person non-grata most of this season. I know beyond any doubt that he would be welcomed in Ann Arbor. He could probably bring Crowton and still be accepted. People in Ann Arbor see 10-2 playing the SEC schedule as 11-1 and a Rose Bowl berth, which is a dream season. In Big Ten Country, especially in and around Ann Arbor and Columbus, going to Pasadena is all that matters. And Miles has shown time and time again that he can recruit, and he can win. They are not wanting 50 point games, they are ok with ugly wins. The pressure on Miles would be no where as intense as it would be here.
The other issue for LSU is something that as an outsider I definitely can see. LSU will have a hard time finding a replacement that you guys would be happy with. Especially right now. My guess is that Chavis would be only possible option which would make any sense.
Miles is a good coach, and honestly for my sake as an LSU student I hope he stays. He runs a solid clean program that honestly could be a national championship contender next year. If he leaves, that will be gone. I hope I am wrong.

you're an LSU student and you don't root for LSU? GFY

Funny, I never said I didnt root for LSU. I grew up outside of Ann Arbor. I sat my tail every Saturday in the student section, and will again next fall. I pay out of state tuition because I am a LSU fan. Just giving an outside perspective.

well, you sound like you don't know what in the frick you're talking about either way. Chavis has less than a zero percent chance of being named head coach.

No he knows we can't get a coach because he has an outsider's perspective, dummy. Chavis or bust.

Sorry but the Moeller crap never happened, if you go over and read their boards there are tons of people who were involved with UM that say that stuff is BS. Cops who arrested Moeller said it had nothing to do with Miles.

If Chavis is named head coach I'll switch my team to da Jags

Funny, just because you can swear doesn't mean you do either. Who exactly is coming to LSU? Saban left, and even when he came, he was not a huge name. Mullen isnt leaving... Patterson isnt coming here... so who exactly are you going to get to roll on into Baton Rouge?

Please hire Chief as head coach

What about Pelini, Fitzgerald, Hoke, Sumlin, Tuberville, Petersen... anyone else in line for a head coaching job at some point has a better shot than Chavis.

Moeller stuff never happened? No point in arguing about it. Its what it is. Miles left Michigan by U of M's choice... and anyone who knew Bo and what he stood for understands exactly what that meant.

He has no interest in coaching.

Why in the hell would LSU hire Fitzgerald, Sumlin or Tubberville?
It's getting too late in the game. If something doesn't break soon I don't think LSU will have a lot of choices. I doubt Miles leaves anyway.
