If Miles is such a great coach, then why isn't the NFL calling?

Miles record is one of the best in NCAA. However, it can't be proven whether or not many other guys could have done the same thing, so no point in arguing it.
What do NFL teams see in other coaches that they don't see in Les Miles? Any other coach with that kind of NCAA record would have been rumored to be NFL bound at some point in their coaching career, yet everyone knows no NFL team would even consider letting him be the head coach of a team.

Miles best assets are recruiting and mentoring young players.

NFL coaches have way more media responsibilities and that is probably the area Les Miles sucks the most at.
When was the last time Les Miles answered a football/team/strategy question and gave an answer that made sense or that you enjoyed?

coaching status is not determined by whether or not an NFL team comes calling.

Our last guy got a lot of NFL attention and that turned out pretty shitty for LSU nation.
As long as Miles keeps winning ballgames, I don't give two shits what the NFL thinks of him.

"The wacky, Mad Hatter rep made some NFL executives who considered hiring him nervous, I'm told. They weren't certain if he had the maturity to be an NFL head coach, so in the end, they stayed away.
That is changing drastically. After interviews with several team executives, it has become clear Miles has vaulted near the top of some lists as the next hottest NFL coaching candidate."
CBSSports last year
"Way back in late September, Mike Freeman of CBSSports.com wrote that the perception some NFL executives have of the “wacky, Mad Hatter” persona of Les Miles “is changing drastically” and the LSU coach “will definitely be pursued by teams in need of a head coach at the end of the season.”
It’s not yet at the end of the season, but, with head-coaching axes already swinging in a couple of NFL cities, Miles’ name is already being attached to a professional vacancy."
NBCSports last year
Despite all the shite talked about CLM, he actually still wants to be at LSU. With all the coaches anxious to jump to the next big thing, he is one that actually wants stability and to build something. It's the same reason he has said since day 1, he would prefer a longer contract than higher pay. He wants to be at LSU, it is a destination job to him. It's why he has passed on Michigan twice, and Arkansas with more money.

Newsflash: Not every college coach succeeds in the NFL.
Posted on 1/10/13 at 3:31 pm to coolmonk
There's been some interest in him as an NFL coach.
Also not every successful college coach is considered a fit in the NFL. Urban Meyer has never been pursued by the NFL, is he a bad coach?

"He's the most intriguing coaching prospect I've seen in a long time," said one team executive. "I think he has a great deal of talent and can deal with the modern athlete."
And that is what I've heard repeatedly about Miles from team executives. Their belief is that Miles is, as one told me, the next Jimmy Johnson in terms of knowing how to coach the 21st-century player. Take that comparison as you like, but to me there's no bigger compliment since Johnson deftly handled a Cowboys locker room full of gigantic egos.

Good college coach =/= good NFL coach
and vice versa.
We all know Saban wasn't too good in the NFL and it wouldn't surprise me if bill belichick was mediocre in college.

If you were an owner, would you put your investment of hundreds of millions of dollars in the hands of Miles???
I wouldn't trust him to deliver a pizza. He'd get lost.

If Saban is such a great coach, why did he fail in the NFL?
If Spurrier is such a great coach, why did he fail in the NFL?
Good/great college coach doesn't mean good/great NFL coach.
Since this forum is to discuss college football, I don't really care if Miles would be a good NFL coach.

Didn't Jerry Jones think about him before he hired Jason Garrett?

In part because he and his agent haven't floated his name out there.

That's a clown question, bro.
