Former LSU Football player and current ESPN analysts Booger McFarland joined the Russillo & Kanell show on Thursday and was asked who he would rather see coaching at LSU next year; Les Miles or Alabama offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin?

It took McFarland a second to respond but he said he would roll the dice with Kiffin.
quote:

"I would roll the dice on Lane," McFarland said. "The game has changed offensively. (Miles) is not going to change. If you see where the game is heading offensively, don't you have to go there?"
No. 18 LSU sitting at the 2-1 (1-0 SEC) still has a lot to play for this season but many think that the loser of this Saturday's game at Auburn will be looking for a new head coach next year.

no thanks. Id prefer the 1950s offense over the NCAA sanctions.

ESPN's Booger McFarland should probably shut the frick up. He is not helping in any way. This is an after season discussion (that will more than likely happened). Having it now only serves as a distraction to the current team. I'd hope a former LSU player of all people would understand this.

He's advancing himself. He doesn't care about the team.

He's not paid to be a homer and help the team. He's paid to have an opinion. Some of you need to chill about a media personality "making negative comments about LSU." If all he did was kiss their arse all day he wouldn't be very good at his job--se Lou Holtz.

The LSU job is not a revolving door for a guy like Kiffin.

He thought we'd go 11-1 before the season with that offense. He needs to make up his mind

He thought we'd go 11-1 with an offense that Les said had evolved. It hasn't.

If I'm Lane Kiffin, I would realize that I'm better suited as a coordinator than head coach. His past comments and actions show he doesn't handle the spot light leadership role of a team very well.

Of all the many challenges involved in being a HC, Les fails at one of them while Lane fails on multiple, multiple levels. Either I was wrong when I thought Booger was smarter than this, or he is just ate up with the 'win at all costs' mentality that turns fans into retards. He should've disallowed the question IMO.

If he is stirring the pot he is focusing on his career in media.

frick that. He would do here what he did to Tennessee and USC. Booger is stupid to say that.

Hey, I too loved Booger as a player, but Kiffin over Miles, that is why he is not a Billionaire when rolling the dice. Sorry, you can not be serious.

Booger is a good guy but he's been eaten up with the Les has to go crap for years. Lane Kiffen? Really. Says tons about his mindset, dude has failed as a head coach what twice...three times? I wonder if he got a blood transfusion from Finebaum

NO. No way. I like Petrino way more than Kiffin. He was awful at USC. The job was way over his head as a head coach. He is a solid coordinator.

Only way I would be ok with lane is if we were guaranteed that the defensive staff would stay in tact. I still think miles can get it done this year. With etling I think the Offense will open up.

Booger is just stating his frustration with Miles- aren't we all unhappy with Miles and want change? Miles is his own worst enemy- reminds me of Gerry Dinardo in a way. Dinardo refused to upgrade his coaches while Miles in his brain still sees a 1974 Offense with Bo Schembechler taking on Woody Hays.
