The only thing he needed to correct was his offense ideology. Pretty sure he will do that.

I think he could be very successful if given the chance

Been saying this all week. Him or Mack Brown

Both are great working a room and could right the ship and also recruit and build them back up.

He would probably take the job, and he would do a lot better than Butch did at winning at a base level and restoring recruiting. At this point, he is the most solid choice they will get to seriously consider them. He could potentially be a great brodge to the next guy and help restore some credibility.

Because he can stay home and collect LSU money

He will never change his offensive approach no matter who the offensive coordinator is. It is always Les’s offense. It cost him his job at LSU after false promises year after year. He will never change nor should any school will trust that he will change.

What does Les Miles actually bring to the table at the moment? He interviewed for the Univ of Houston job a year ago and they quickly dropped him.

He doesn’t want it. Just bought a new house in Baton Rouge.

I think Les Miles would be a pretty good hire. I think the problem is that the Tennessee fan base would freak out over it.

nah, he will still stay predictable and run in a phone booth and not spread field however him or fulmer or brown or coker SHOULD be able to get them 7 or 8 wins until they find a good up and comer who will take job.

Nobody is taking chizik. everybody knows malzahn and CAn won him that title in 2010. malzahn played for a natty on his own without chizik in 2013 and may do it again this year.

I don't understand the posters on here who think Les is unqualified for the job. He won 2 SEC Championships and 1 National Championship. He's a MASSIVE upgrade over Butch Jones and one of the more attractive candidates available who might actually be interested in the job. It boggles my mind that people are talking about him like he's some coach who never had success.

Nobody wants a guy that was fired as head coach to be replaced by his DL coach.

It looks like the one common trend with all the new college hires is youth and the chance of a slam dunk hire. I think Miles would improve their program and get them back to respectability (9-4,10-3,8-4) but everyone is looking to be the next Alabama or Clemson.

Are we sure les even wants a head coaching job? Is it possible he is going on the interviews and pretending to be interested so LSU keeps the checks coming?

Probably the same reason no one has hired Miles at this point...
