It looks like Les is going to give Steele another year, but does anyone have confidence that Kevin Steele will be able to solve our defensive woes?
but it does depend strongly on who becomes DC

Rumors of a dc out of I think UCLA last year showed promise. I forget who it was but the right hire with us retaining O could be beneficial. For that matter name Orgeron DC.

Have people forgotten the criticisms about his rush rush pass punt offense?
Amazing how that has been the criticism of every single coordinator under Miles except maybe Crowton his first year and Jimbo 2001. Seems to be one constant in all that.

Pendergast, out of coaching for the 2014 season, did not have enough familiarity with the SEC and recruiting in the South to encourage LSU coach Les Miles to bring him aboard after meeting with him over the weekend, the sources said.

The talking heads really have no damn clue what they are talking about. Buggar is the only one that is looking at this under the microscope like the AD and the fans. The other just see an overall view have paid no real attention to the last 3 years.

I realize that but you're going to get rid of one of the winningest head coaches in school history for some unproven guy that's won 10 games at Houston.
People act like Miles was a home run hire. He was a guy with 4 years of HC experience, averaging 7 wins per year with a .500 conference record and a losing bowl record.

Tom Herman doesn't seem like the type that is trying for comfy and 2nd tier. Seems like a type A that wants to win a Superbowl 1 day. Anyone close to the situation realizes that we're not torching Miles for losing games, we're torching him for how and who his is losing too. We shouldn't be getting our arse kicked every year running the exact same scheme and downgrading our coaches.
Understood, but Va Tech is not a 2nd tier program IMO and he would be walking into a better situation. Seems like too many coaches grab SEC jobs, get skull dragged and become irrelevant. Not saying that would happen at LSU but he would be walking into a hornet's nest and boosters would expect immediate results.

Because of easier competition?
LSU is stacked with talent, has incredible fan support, great facilities, in a recruiting hot bed with no instate competition, etc.
It's a better job in every way other than its in a harder conference.

Do we want someone who would bolt to the NFL after a couple years? I don't.

10 games at Houston.
The guy has literally helped turn the school into a winner everywhere he has been. I would be excited to have this guy come to LSU. He's young, intelligent, hungry, and has proven his coaching ability at every stop he's made.
While I like the idea of a proven HC, I think Herman could step in at LSU and be very successful from day one. Especially if we could hold onto Frank and Orgeron.

Agree on Herman. Took a Houston prg in one year from nothing to 10-1 so far this year. They saw what he did at Ohio State as an assistant. Aggressive, offensive minded coach.

I've been the most realistic poster on this subject and have touted TH from the beginning.
For the record...Chip and/or Jimbo are not coming here.

Miles has been great but he has botched entirely too many games. His refusal to alter his philosophy, even though he has the players in place has the fanbase ready for someone new.

LSU doesn't fire Miles and pay the buyout to get Herman. He will be great coach somewhere, but if he was the best option we would be stuck with Miles for a few more years.
Posted on 11/24/15 at 10:55 am to Solo Cam
Wouldn't USC be a threat to getting Herman? Looks like he may of lived in L.A. during his radio/production stent.
