No there aren't. Just because a team scores a lot of points, doesn't mean said team will be ahead by a lot of points. A&M scores a lot and gives up a lot? Why? Because their defense is on the field a whole shitload. The defense will get tired when your favorite offense scores in a minute and a half.
Why do you think Baylor, Texas A&M, Auburn and Oregon all have shitty defenses?

That's unnerving if true. Alleva continues to screw over the football program.

Because you have to deal with Les Miles and the lack of offense. Pretty hard gig. Could hurt you for the next job you are looking for.
Oh, wait.

Chavis waiting until after the bowl game to leave is what pisses me off the most. He has had this in works for a while and really screwed us out of guys like Muschamp for this job.

My buddy in the coaching business, says he's heard NOTHING. As others have alluded in this thread, this process is being kept VERY quiet if even R.O. (my friend) has no speculation or scuttlebutt.

And working with the LSU offense is easier on a DC than working with Sumlin's or Helfrich's.
How do you determine this?? 3 and out wears out a defense just as fast as scoring quickly.

This is just a lazy tired played out way to describe the LSU offense.
As pedestrian as the LSU offense was in 2014, they were 9th in the nation and 2nd in the SEC in TOP.
So I guess the answer to your question of "And how do you determine this" is simple. I don't just ignorantly make statements without actually looking at real facts.

Ignore my team affiliation and let me chime in on the OP's concerns. The OP saw us get rid of our DC and before the ink was dry on the newspaper, everyone was hearing that Muschamp had interest in become our new DC. The OP is wondering why this isn't happening at LSU.
As for Baylor, Texas A&M, Auburn and Oregon having shitty defenses, it isn't because of their high scoring offenses. It's because these team don't get many 5-star players on defense, especially in the secondary. You can't stop teams if you don't have talent players on D or a coach that coach a 3-star DB to play like a 5-star.

I wasn't really addressing the OP. I was addressing one of our many rantards.

I get what he is saying, even though he didn't really convey that very well. His post insinuates he doesn't think any big time DCs are interested in the job at LSU. The guy I addressed says we will never get a big time DC because of the offense. That is a stupid statement.

Having the defense be on the field so much is a contributing factor to having a defense that ranks in the 80s. There is 0 denying that. A team like Oregon that has been in the consistent hunt for a national championship should be able to recruit defensive players. They have one of the best CBs in the country. Baylor has Oakman up front. A&M has Garrett up front. Having to be on the field that long is most CERTAINLY a reason these defenses struggle. Is it the sole reason? No. But it is a contributing factor and also supports my original comment that it is more difficult to have success as a DC at a school like Oregon, Baylor or A&M than it is at LSU.
There is really no arguing that.

For once, I do, and I got sort of "Billy BigBoots" about it. But since my friend knows or has heard nothing, it's kind of irrelevant anyway.
Sorry about that.

quote:There is some truth to that. When Chavis first got here Les was on shakier ground and was willing to give up complete control of the defense. I get the impression that Les wants more control this time around which would keep many "big name" DC's away. Even if he is playing nice in interviews, Les being more established probably worries some candidates too.
just go ahead and say what we all know you are thinking
"nobody wants to work with Miles"

Because Chavis leaving makes LSU "look" like an unstable situation, and the perception is that the head coach is on the hot seat. Maybe someone doesn't want to uproot their lives to come to Baton Rouge for a year or two. That's what I think, but it is unfortunate because whoever lands this job will have a stacked lineup on defense to make a name for themselves, if the defense can perform as well as they did at the end of the year.
