Since he is often confusing and interesting on tv? Might be interesting for ratings. Would not be boring.

He says dumb, confusing stuff when he's forced into bullshite coach-speak situations. He's actually a smart, fairly well-spoken guy.

Expert Analysis- They have a definite want to secure victory against a quality opponent. The diligence of the game will determine the outcome

Like 1-9-12, it's like he's hiding the obvious. To the fans, I think it's insulting. Catch me if you can.

He may do some guest appearances, but it's a real committment to do it every weekend during the fall. My guess is he'll take a year off to spend with family and watch his son play on Friday nights.

His name has been thrown around at Texas if Strong is let go.
I don't think he would be offered job, but just saying.

he should coach S. Carolina. Not a lot of pressure, and they're happy with 8 or 9 wins a year. Just beat Clemson every now and then.

It would draw great tv rating when he says uhh uhh, mumbling in short sentences.

There's a yearly college football thread on Arfcom and it is great, lots of terrific analysis, etc.

When Spurrier retired, someone in the thread suggested he and Miles for a broadcast duo.

Now that would be interesting!

He would not be good. Neither would Spurrier. Just because guys say crazy, off the wall things that work for soundbites doesn't mean they have that type of skill set for a full time speaking job.

I predict, with his degree in Economics from Michigan in hand, he will be courted by Trump to be the Chair of the Federal Reserve

I think he would be more of a Lee Corso type of character.

I think ESPN would snap him up, pay him as much or more than he's making now, even if they had to boot Lee Corso to do it.

My god ... can you imagine Les making his picks on College Gameday and putting on that buffalo head when he's picking Colorado?

If he could do it without the pauses he usually has , he'd be a good one
