If Miles retires five years from now, do we go w/ offensive or defensive coach?

I love Les and hope he stays for twenty years so this is only a hypothetical. If he retires five seasons from now and college football is still hanging on to the up tempo style offense, do you see LSU going for a Gus or Sumlin (Offense) or a Muschamp (Defense) style coach? I would prefer for LSU to remain the same in its approach which is a run by committee and smash mouth aggressive defense team.

I'm with you. I love our physical mentality. I don't care for the 50 points a game and 6000 bazillion passes and no defense.

What "up tempo" schools have won NCs the past decade? Defense is the foundation of true winning in football and dominate pitching in baseball.

Even with our shitty offense we were in most games...when we had an offense we lost because we lacked a defense. For my baseball analogy, I give you this past season.

If Bert keeps improving Arkansas in that 5 years then him or promote within we can't lose Frank or O u still need players to win and they're the best at it!!!

Auburn was an example, but Cam is also the best player in the past decade. Ohio st occasionally was up tempo and Oregon, Baylor, and TCU all made noise this year

Same approach. A team that plays ball control & smash mouth football

With the current recruiters on staff some lucky SOB is gonna fall into a gold mine. Personally I'd love a Patterson type, traditionally a D guy, but has evolved and now pits points up

Like it or not, I don't see how the up tempo offense isn't the future of football. In five+ seasons from now, how many possible pro style, acceptable coaches could there really be to choose from?

I'd prefer to not run a spread...I mean Oregon hasn't won any titles, they're basically the Bills of college football.

We probably won't be able to hire Urban Meyer in five years.

Ohio St. & Auburn say hello.

The fact that some of you find LSU's offensive philosophy "acceptable" is laughable.
