He'll get hired somewhere, hopefully not Mizzou or USCe

It would be weird playing against Les

ETA: In his show tonight he basically said he isn't ready to retire

The only coaching job he'll have after his $15 million buyout will be reminding Spurrier to square his shoulders.

If he wants to be, sure.

I'd like to see what he could do at Miami, if he still wants to coach. Not sure he still has the fire, though.

He is old. Any program that hires him knows he won't be there for long.

Not sure he's the guy to rebuild a program.

You're crazy if you think one of the most successful coaches of the last decade won't be able to find a job coaching somewhere.he may not get high profile job because of his age but he could easily find a job.

He'll yes...those guys are so competitive that they typically don't retire until their health starts to fail.

Big time u over sites will jizz in their pants at the opportunity to have a coach that can win 80 percent over a decade and come in and raid the talent in LA.....

No reason not to believe we will not be playing les' next team a few times before he retires....

USC's Hayden has made some dumb hires but no way any big program that has seen our decline in the last four years is hiring him...

Bulging a program is far easier than maintaining one. What's harder to do?
Win 13 games once or won 10 games for 5 years?
Have 2 great recruiting classes or have 7 good ones?
Maintaining a powerhouse is one of the hardest things a coach can do.

We still have a very good chance at finishing top 25 this year.
That would mean we have finished top 25 3 of the last 4 years. 99% of all cfb programs would kill for that "decline".

Only if you:
a. get complacent
b. rest on your laurels
c. lose that inner fire/drive...whatever you want to call it.

Not sure where it all went wrong for Miles....but 1/9 got the ball rolling.

Hopefully he gets hired by a school that plays LSU soon. Would love to see his team beat the crap out of LSU and their shiny new coach.

Big time program such as? USCw? Texas? Probably not just due to age.

Would love to see harbaugh leave Michigan and Les finally get an opportunity to coach his alma mater.

But I could see a team like Maryland or Georgia Tech/middle of the pack Big 12 team taking a chance on Les.

You have no idea what you're talking about. It's common knowledge that maintaininga powerhouse is far harder than Building one. Urban Meyer is the widely considered the 2nd best coach in cfb and he couldn't maintain UF as a power. There are very few cfb coach that have sustained decade long success that Miles has had here.

I wouldn't call the Sunbelt or MAC "big time."
