If MIles left for Ar-Kansas it would be a huge "frick you" the program and put us in a serious hole. I only say that because it would happen completely unexpected and I'm not sure LSU is prepared to go out and get a homerun hire at this time.

It's not happening anyway but it would be kinda funny. LSU would be pissed and Arkansas better hide their wife and kids...

Wed have to shell out 5-6 mil and im not willing to do that considering that are not many coaches outside the sec that have won a bcs title. So i dont see anyone being an upgrade at this point. You can also kiss that recruiting class goodbye. Kiss rettig and jennings goodbye

While I don't believe he's going anywhere, ANY athletic director, if he's worth a shite and is doing his JOB, has a short list of replacement candidates at his fingertips, and their agents on his rolodex. (sorry if my use of the antiquated term "rolodex" dates me ... frick you.)

I can think of 10 coaches off the top of my head whose agents would get an immediate phone call ... I'd make Jon Gruden tell me no. If he says no, what's the harm? Charley Strong, Dan Mullen, Franklin at Vandy, Peterson, Patterson, are all attractive possibilities.

BTW, an AD worth his salt is able to put out feelers on the downlow w/o the media getting a whiff. Not sure Alleva is worth his salt.
