Les Miles Is Linked To The Michigan Job Again

If Les decides to go, at least we are on the verge of a big game. Not a bad time to go if he leaves early.

Obligatory, "HE GONE"

Bye Felecia

If any school has the money to pay Miles's buyout, it's Michigan. I still think Miles will stay though.

@LSUChamp06

If CLM leaves on his own, he isn't owed a buyout.

Ok. Best wishes!

Man, you people who are wishing Les would go are ignorant and full of yourselves. He is a top 5 coach and the best LSU has ever seen. The risk of a serious decline is very real if he leaves.

We're likely going bowling in Houston. The decline is here hoss.

"could be" a "possible candidate"

This is general enough to include pretty much anyone

Les has his quirks and faults......even with that, idiots want him to leave....He's not leaving nor should he

LSU will never contend with Miles at the helm. He has peaked and it's time for a change.

Regardless of if you like Les or not, hes not a top 5 coach nor is he the best LSU has ever seen. I like Les as a person, he's a great recruiter and an average gameday coach

Geaux Baby Geaux!!

You all realize he recruits amazing. Why do you want him to go come one now hes the reason we have Fournette so for those who have no idea how the football world works should just take a back seat and shut up honestly.

who are the top 5 coaches in college football?
and you would really put cmac above miles? with one conference title?

"LSU will never contend with Miles at the helm. He has peaked and it's time for a change."

Good God man.....some of our fans are so stupid

People wanting Les to go right now are so stupid. We are going to first lose players to transfer, then we are going to lose recruits who want to come here partly because of Miles (Dylan Moses for one would be almost on the doorstep of Bama). Then what happens to the assistants and coordinators? Who all go and who all stay?

Lot of risk in him leaving when we pretty much have everything set in place. Usually guys don't make linear moves to programs with worse situations. Especially guys who just got a top level recruiting class, and stand to grab another top level recruiting class next year.

If he doesnt go this time, he's going to use this for a raise and contract extension! Get ready for ticket prices to go up again for a coach who stands on the sidelines and digs in his ears looking for a new play to run!
Hope you like going to sandwich bowls every year!

The legacy of Miles is hard to quantify. It really depends on the expectations. He brings a lot to the coach position and the positive stats can't be denied. But when you watch us struggle with a perennial one dimensional predictable offense and seem to always be "that close" to winning the big games, it's hard not to feel like the wheels are spinning. The offensive remains the biggest problem despite different OCs over the years.

@Datbayoubengal

I reluctantly agree. No reasonable person can possibly argue that there is a risk to replacing a coach who's been as successful as Miles. And I'd bet a few months pay that the immediate results would be negative (in recruiting, organization, and on-field play). But unlike the last couple of times that I feared he might go, I'm really not sweating this move. If he stays, great. If he goes, fine. 10 years is a good run for any coach in one place.

I still think he's effectively blackballed by a few heavy hitters with close ties to the UM program, so we're probably all just whistling Dixie.
