If we do fire Les during season, it should be O with a clear understanding that he's not getting the job. There was some drama with him and USC over that.

Agree - Coach O as interim HC and give the offense to D. Craig. Might help keep 2017 recruits on the board and would sure as hell be a more fun 2016 season win or lose than we would have to sit through with Les and crew.

If LSU fires LM, I think the best thing to do is to name Cam Cameron the interim head coach. He has head coaching experience, and his offenses were nothing like this when he had Antwaan Randle El up at Indiana. Let Aranda focus on the defense, let Cam Cameron open up the offense, and then bunker down for the rest of the season. With any luck, we'll hire a great head coaching prospect who'll decide to retain Aranda (although that shouldn't be a requirement placed upon him).

Regardless of whether or not you like Chavis, WHO THE HELL HIRED HIM???

Why do some of you just avoid blaming Miles at all costs??? And if you really dislike Chavis so much but like Miles, then explain why Miles wanted to keep him???

Even in 2013, we needed Anthony Jennings to pull a beautiful miracle out of his arse to beat a winless-in-the-SEC Arkansas team in Tiger Stadium because we couldn't pass on them with Mett when we needed to before he got hurt.

Here in Green Bay after the game and some pretty knowledgeable Wisconsin fans LOVED Aranda. They were unanimous in saying that they all wish Aranda had been named their head coach and believe he'll be a great head coach soon.

I suppose Cam as interim HC could be a good idea. Just please get Les and Peveto out as soon as possible.

If we keep getting fricking kickoffs out of bounds and get 20 yard punts I'm going to punch a baby. I don't even get how it's possible to be as bad a special teams coach as Peveto has been. It's just fricking kicking and kick coverage, it's not rocket science.

I think Less is past his prime and it's time to move on. Just like in MMA some people just fight 1 too many fights and end up embarrassing their whole career.

Tom Herman is the man who absolutely would make Saban shite his pants.. This guy is what lsu needs to lead the tigers.

I would be okay with this approach. I suppose it means both LM and Cam Cameron are immediately shown the door.

I said this last night.

ETA: Fire Les, Cam, and Peveto, and put Aranda as interim HC, Ed O as DC and Craig as OC. A GA can do a better job coaching special teams than that egghead Peveto.

Start the search in secret right now and bring in the new guy before or right after the bowl game. I've said this in another thread, but honestly, If we can't get Herman, I want Aranda with Kendal Briles as OC. Make Ed O the DC.

You really thinking firing the HC, OC and STCo would salvage the season?

I am all aboard fire Lea but if we do it now we are slab aging anything.

I don't know that Aranda is the man for the job but I'm positive les isn't. At this point I take any coach in the nation over les miles and I've always liked les he's a great recruiter, players love him, and he's a great role model for the kids, but at some point you have to be willing to make changes and evolve your game

That's why you give him a dry run as interim coach. Are you not comprehending?

Coach o in interim

That would make more sense because he's actually done that before. Aranda needs to focus on defense.

If Les does get fired during the season, they're not going to also fire Cam and Peveto, so y'all can quit dreaming. Best situation would be to put O as interim HC, and let Cam actually run the offense. Of course, after what happened with O at USC, I'm not sure he would be comfortable taking an interim spot without a legit chance at being full time HC next year.
