Even if someone like Kelly was available? Do you think LSU would risk losing out on someone like him, just to keep Miles around for another year?


What makes him a good option? Its obvious that offense doesn't work when you play NFL caliber defenses. The ones we will see every year in the sec. We would still get smoked by bama running that shite.

Wasn't advocating for him, just wondering what people thought about the possibility...

That said, everyone here complains about the lack of ingenuity on offense, he would certainly take care of that. Nobody in the SEC has NFL caliber D's...NOBODY.

Miles will not be fired, miles will be allowed to retire from LSU

and miles wouldn't retire after an 8 win season unless he point blank lost his mojo

For miles to be fired there would need to be a catastrophic failure in either the on field product or compliance/ethics. A 2-10 type of disaster or a petrino type of scandal. 10 yrs of .790 football, two SEC Championships, and a NC get you a lot of rope.

Chip Kelly is not leaving the NFL either

another thing our schedule is easier than last year.

cupcake game vs McNeese. We could play on backups and run 100% of the time and still win this. We could win this on defense alone.

MSU on the road, they are losing a lot especially on defense. We should win this game too

Auburn at home, they are losing a good bit. We should win this.

Cuse on the road, they suck they may keep it close but no exchuse to lose this game.

so 4 games into the season we should be 4-0 but if we are 2-2 I suspect we will have a bad season.

Eastern Michigan. Another easy win

South Carolina on the road, they sucked this year they could get better but another game we should win.

so we should be 6-0 at this point of the season. We should win all of these games. We could be upset. At worse I think we are 4-2

Florida at Home, again another win, new coach only if their offense goes from worst to first in a season we should win this.

WEstern Kentucky at home.

So 8 games into the season we will likely be the favorite in every game, it is very reasonable to think we will be 8-0. If we have two or three losses at this point of the season this is problematic and our future with miles should start to be questioned.

@ Bama will be our hardest game to win, but they are still losing a good bit at-least on offense.

Arkansas at home scary game, they are the dark horse in the SEC west this year.

Ole Miss on the road. Ole Miss is taking a huge step back after this year, we should win this game but they could upset us.

Texas A&M I don't know about this game, if Chavis is the savior of the defense we won't win this game. They weren't good this year and we should have the advantage at home.

So looking at the schedule

there are 9 or 10 games we should win.

1 or 2 games that we could lose

1 game we probably won't win.

anything less than 9 wins is a disappointment.

You are just not smart. It pains me. It fricking hurts me to try and understand your logic.

Chip Kelly is a top 5 Coach in all of football. His offense doesn't work in the NFL? He made the playoffs in his first season. Has made Mark Sanchez look half arse decent.

Next, take a look back at Alabama's few losses since Saban got the ball rolling over there. What kind of offenses seem to give him the most trouble?

Use your goddamn brain man.

I disagree, completely. Couple that offense with good special teams and a good to very good D, and you're contending. Like many good managers you have to identify your weaknesses and either fix them or surround yourself with people to fix them for you. That's where the Defense comes in with Kelly. By the way, he's always had good s/teams, and not just in the return game.

My biggest want for Kelly would be that he is one helluva a teacher, thus communicator (not talking about press conferences). He's excellent and communicating plan A, B, & C and the indicators/triggers for those plans. That's why he always seems to find ways to get the ball in playmakers hands.
