Former Ole Miss football coach Hugh Freeze resigned effectively immediately on Thursday night after school officials found a pattern of phone calls to a number associated with a female escort service.

While Luke will serve as a short-term solution to keep the team together as they start fall camp and the 2017 season, many have already started suggesting candidates to take over the Ole Miss job full-time.

One of those names is former LSU coach Les Miles...

The golden parachute offers little incentive for him to want to step into a horrible situation. If he doesn't apply do we still have to pay him? I thought part of it was that he had to actively seek employment.

I can think of 11 million reasons why this has no chance of happening.

But can you think of a better coach who's available ~5 weeks before the start of a season?

Les and Kelly as co-head coaches. One was great in the NFL then went to shite and the other was great before the NFL but went to shite once he got to the NFL.

You dont bring Les in to rebuild a program. He's good at maintaining and recruiting, but I dont think Ole piss will give him the years it'll take to get him to rebuild. After the 3rd year mediocrity and no improvement, he'll be out.

They will get the death penalty before they can make it that far.

Ole MIss is NOT getting the death penalty. After the SMU fiasco, the NCAA wil never implement the death penalty again.
