2) Shaw

Absolutely not. What has Stanford done post-Harbaugh?

Better than they did during Harbaugh. David Shaw's record at Stanford is 56-14 (.797). Harbaugh's record at Stanford was 29-21 (.580). Shaw has averaged 11 wins per season, the best in the PAC 12 during Shaw's tenure. He's won the PAC 12 three of his five years at Stanford. That, with the handicap of recruiting limited by extremely high academic requirements at Stanford. Harbaugh never won the PAC 12. Are you that stupid or something worst? Since you obviously did not base your opinion about Shaw on facts, what did you base it on? Did you just assume he was a much worst coach than Harbaugh?

Let me tell you something else, Charlie Strong and Kevin Sumlin are good coaches too, despite the Rant's claims otherwise. This year will prove both's coaching ability. Sumlin's overall record and his record in the SEC is better than Bret Bielema and Butch Jones, but neither is universally vilified as bad coaches like Sumlin. Why is that?

Although Herman would be my top choice, I personally believe Strong would be a home run hire to replace Miles as well. He has developed a starting QB in the NFL (Bridgewater). He has recruiting chops in Texas and Florida, two of the top 3 recruiting states in the nation, that are happen to be the prime out of state recruiting areas for LSU. He knows the SEC from his successful time as defensive coordinator at Florida. He had an excellent offense at Louisville and has improved the offense at Texas with a freshman QB and new OC. He is an excellent defensive coach. He would dominate at LSU.
