Obviously money and a job is better than no job, but would he stay this time?

I'd like to know why Steele left the first time? Didn't something go down between him and LSU?

Thought it had something to do with his pension in the state of Alabama.

I'm pretty sure he has a buy out on his contract, so he'll have some money.

Which when you think about it is better than a job. He can get his arse to Gulf Shores, look out over the Gulf, sip Mai-tais, and give the world the finger.

He got paid. He went into this season the the second highest paid coordinator in college football only behind Sarkisian.

I don’t know why would LSU want that snake back.

You guys throwing out Steetes name sound so desperate.

Maybe he would say something like this "give LSU the finger." Just my 2 dollar worth.

He was kindly told to seek employment elsewhere because he was mediocre at best during his time at LSU.

The only reason he got the job was because Alleva wouldn’t let Miles get Aranda because he was trying to fire Miles and didn’t want to be tied to huge buyouts. After the next season he realized Miles as coach was not his decision after all and so he let him get Aranda then.

Don’t forget the attempted coup that was 2015 (Steele’s year) and that Les was an inch away from being fired, with Steele holding a contract with the “Les Miles” clause.

BTW, thanks Alleva, Alexander, Jindal for ruining that A&M game for everyone.

He left before because he wanted that get his time to his retirement pension in Alabama. He's got that now.
