There are several programs across the country where Les could go and be successful just as there are several programs where he could go and fail, Arkansas fans feel as he would fail here. It has nothing to do with him being a good coach or not.
It is all about the fit, he isn't a good fit here.
that's what Au said when they got rid of tubbs for chiz. fit is silly, your either a good coach or you are not.
tubbs succeeded at ole miss, Au, and he's now doing pretty good with texas tech.
jim tressel won at youngstown and ohio st.
bryan kelley cinn, notre dame
urban meyer bowling green, utah, florida, and ohio st.
saban kent st, mich st, lsu, and bama.

miles did well and brough o.s.u. to a level they hadn't seen since jimmy johnson and is now doing well at lsu.
patrino, did well with louisville and left it in shambles and did the same with arkansas.
coaches are who they are. there isn't some special place that makes them a great coach.
dooley and chiz were never good coaches and performed that way at bigger jobs.

Mediocre at OSU Exceptional at LSU
This is what I mean by "fit".
Les has been exceptional at LSU, he would be mediocre at Arkansas.
This is based on results on the field.
Another area of "fit" is his personality, the way he conducts his press conferences wouldn't make him popular with a large portion of our fan base because of how he handles questions, his speaking skills reminds a lot of fans of Nutt.
Personally, I like how he always stands up for his players to the media and fans, same for Gundy at OSU.
