First, the right coach may convince a lot of these guys to still come to LSU.
Too big of a risk to take with the rest of the staff potentially falling apart.

Second, even if we lose some, the right coach may very well maximize the talent we do have and win the SECW, SEC and get in the playoff.
The defense is what needs to be supplemented. OC is gone after this year.

The whole attitude that we need to keep Miles because things may fall apart if he leaves screams of cowardice to me.
Cowardice? How about minimizing risk while maximizing potential?
quote:
What Miles has been doing isn't working. What makes you think signing these mythical great recruits will change that.
LSU's recruiting on the defensive side of the ball hasn't been this good in a very long time. Steele and Orgeron have put a recruiting plan in place and are recruiting to that plan. A HC change could completely ruin that.

Hell, Miles basically single handedly torpedoed LF's Heisman hopes. Why do you think he will do any better with Franks and the other guys he is recruiting?
The OL torpedoed LF's heisman hopes. Miles can't play OL anymore. Franks is a future QB who fits well into a pro-style system. We can't project that Miles will squander his talent. The OC is probably gone anyway so Franks might be gone as well.

It is also a huge risk to continue to do what obviously isn't working.

But we are not even close to maximizing potential now. Recruits see that and may choose to go elsewhere.

You can say basically the same thing every year as an excuse not to change.
I fully acknowledge that recruiting may take a hit if Miles steps down. But it will take a hit whenever he does. Why wait. It's unlikely that these guys will come in and make that big of a difference as freshmen anyway. Lets stop wasting the talent we actually HAVE in order to sign nothing but POTENTIAL. Especially when that potential will be wasted by the current coach.

Franks is going to FL. The losing, poor coaching and being the laughingstock of college football will cost us more recruits than Mikes leaving ever will
