Could LSU end up with both Haley and Brooks? Would they have two DL Coaches? What I'm reading doesn't appear to be an either or thing since Chavis is good friends with Haley and Brooks was on his staff at UT.

Also, are their any Offensive Staff changes in the works? Haven't talked much about that.

If you add an additional defensive coach, then Robinson would have to leave. I'm not aware of any word on offensive changes.

Dan Brooks has a pretty impressive resume and a large number of past and current NFL Talent.

Brooks has more experience and a much more impressive resume' than Brick Haley. Would have been a better teacher for our "Underperforming" defensive line, as would many other coaches I can think of off the top of my head.

At this point in time and history of LSU football, it's all about being a "Great Recruiter" and being able to Connect/Communicate with the type of football player that Les Miles thinks he has to have in order to win big time at LSU. Miles appears to have a different mindset than what we saw from Saban. From what I see, great coaching ability takes a back seat to being a great "Used Car Salesman" on this staff and being a "Speedy Athlete" is more important than being a Hester-Steltz-Saban style "Football player with heart and leadership that makes plays and helps the team win" type. Gotta have both types in the program to win big time. Miles apparently thinks he just has to load up on pure athletes and ignore the leadership/heart guys.
He's making a HUGE mistake with this philosophy. And, along with the failed Mallveto experimental Co-DC debacle makes me question how good his judgement is.

I can think of 3.75 million reasons why the head football coach at LSU just CAN'T be a questionable decision maker.....

It must really bother you that a man you think very little of makes 100 times more than you.

Sucks to be you, huh?

This will certainly tell us about Les' ability. Let's see..........we now have hired 3 minority coaches, right? Must have been a great problem this year.

What must have been a great problem? I am not following all the minority coaches being hired stuff. I could be wrong, but I think CLM would hire on merit not on race. These guys seem to be top quality coaches to me. Help me understand what you are trying to say!

Les hated Hester and never gave him the chance he deserved
