It’s truly shocking that teams aren’t lining up to break the bank for a coach who struggled to put up top 100 offenses with elite NFL talent. I simply cannot understand it.

Does 17-0 count as a blowout? If so, Arkansas 2014 says hello.

Pretty sure 51-21 is a blowout. That's how bad Florida beat us in 2008.

Then you better hope Les doesn’t get bored. Jeff Long worked with him for 8 years at UM, and would drag his dick through glass to make that hire if he thought Miles would actually sign. Les plucking kids out of LA and TX and building a power run team with good defense would give the West problems in a year or two.

Yeah, he'd make Arkansas the third- or fourth-best team in the SEC West in no time.

I think the best case for Miles would be to follow the Frank Solich route. Go to a small school in the midwest with little pressure and enjoy your last few years in football.

I just think he's waiting for the right opportunity, which may or may not come.

You don't coach at LSU for 12 years and then take a job at Rutgers. I'm sure he's accustomed to certain amenities/infrastructure right now and isn't going to settle just to have a job, particularly when he's being paid not to coach.

According to this, he certainly DOES want a job.

Some of you just don’t get it. It’s a stipulation of his buyout that he seek employment. He has to say he wants to coach again when asked, and do a few interviews. When he takes those interviews he can tell an AD he wants 10 million a year for his staff, the AD can shake his hand and say thanks but no thanks, and Les can go back to getting paid 125k a month to be retired.

he does not want a job at the moment.

he is enjoying free time with his wife and kids for once

his younger daughter is traveling the country playing softball and is enjoying it. It was rare for him before to be able to enjoy all of it.

I'm sure he misses coaching but to not deal with stress that comes from it is a major relief

Les will continue to commentate, make appearances and enjoy family time while collecting millions. Les is happy now

The LSU fans beating their chests over him not getting a job are so gullible. He's playing it perfectly. He's 63 years old, enjoy the pay check and ride off in the sunset. All you gotta do is bomb a couple interviews or make some salary demands you know that school won't touch
but the rant said they would be teams beating down the door to hire him
