And, then what? Hire a coach who will lose out on some recruits while Miles gets scooped up by another school and he turns them into a conference or national title contender overnight while we struggle to become bowl eligible? As much as we rag on him, that's what probably will happen.


Ummm.. if you haven't noticed, LSU hasn't had a complete team since Saban's recruits have left. Les is a very good recruiter as far as getting talent, but not as far as getting the complete team needed to win a title. Nearly every recruiting class he's gotten has had huge holes in it, so unless he's taking over a juggernaut that is already loaded, he's not getting them to a title.

1. LSU is NOT going to pay Les Miles $15.5 million over 2.5 years which is what they would havr to do if they fire him before january 1, 2016. (Its $12 mil if they wait til Jan 2.)

2. So, Les Miles will be HC next season no matter what our finish is UNLESS he quits.

3. Alleva could make it hard for Les to stay IF Alleva plays hardball with Cam's contract or lack THEREOF. It COULD be January 10, 2016 and LSU announces Les is leaving with a reduced buyout. It would be a mutual parting in that case.

4. The real problem with #3 is that it sends a very bad message to whomever LSU might want to hire as HC at that point. NOt to mention, most vacancies will already be fkilled by that point leaving LSU with limited choices for a new HC.

He did that in 2011. He also had to recruit LA in its lowest point in recruiting.

Last qb to get drafted from LA. 2005. Where are the linebackers? The dts? The offensive linemen? Louisiana isn't producing them. We have one guy starting in dline from Louisiana. Our 2 best offensive linemen are from oos.

If Les wasn't such a good recruiter, this team would suck. You can not survive on LA talent alone.

Just go look at what he did in Boulder with Mcartney, he was able to pull black kids out of Cali to play in Boulder. A town that was less than 1% black.
