Are you mentally deficient? Why would I take the bet when I've already acknowledged that Miles might end up at a trash P5 program like Purdue?

---

because thats why its called "gambling?" how about if he goes to a "trash" program you only have to pay me 50

Now if you want to bet that Miles is hired by an ELITE program, I'll take that.

as i said in another thread, theres only like 10-15 elite programs. of those 10-15 elite programs the only ones that may have job openings are ND and PSU (and LSU)

so if you want me to bet you that Les gets 1 of only like 2 jobs, then yah, I can see why you would want to make that bet. but no, im good.

Les will get another job, at a P5 school, and it will not be some "trash" program.

I really hate that you are making me have to defend Miles, but I cannot ignore your stupidity.

I sure as hell hope not, if they are then the problem on this team extends far beyond the former head coach.

You are aware that LSU just fired a guy whose best attributes were considered recruiting and motivating his players ??

Then he should have prepared his team to be able to march 75 yards in just over two minutes with a timeout to boot

It was 2:56 and 2 timeouts. Dont try to sugarcoat it ;)

Based on what?

What suddenly makes a man who won 3 games as HC at ole miss more qualified than a Jimbo, or Stoops, or Shaw, or even Herman, who has a smaller sample

I am rooting for LSU to win out, but you can mark this post as the first place you heard that the day the interim title is taken off is when this board implodes.

he is like 10th on my list, but in his defense, he has improved every year while there.

just playing devils advocate here, but LSU also gave up nearly 400 yards and made White Sean look like a pretty good QB (19/26, 240, 0 INTs)

Secondary was disappointing Saturday. Jackson and Tolliver look lost a lot of the time.



Tolliver didn't play, did he?

no , hes just become the latest whipping boy for this board now that they have moved on from bashing Drop-ree.

but if LSU is gonna go the cheaper route , why not go cheaper on an up and comer like jeff brohm or venables, the DC at clempson ?

Stanford has impossibly high academic standards to contend with and plays ND and USC annually.

Michigan State also has to play two other schools on that list, every year, and Dantonio is constantly praised as an "overachiever". nothing about that job is glamorous or desirable.

TCU is an interesting one, as they made the jump to the Big 12 recently. but you are talking about a team that was left out the BCS title game after going undefeated in the last 15 years. maybe in another decade one of the programs I listed falls off and TCU makes the jump.

two things about this list. first, its wrong. second, i think more importantly, this list highlights that there really aren't more than like 10-15 GREAT jobs. I mean, okie joke? pittsburgh?

in no particular order
UT
USC
tOSU
Michigan
Bama
LSU
UGA
UTK
ND
FSU
Miami
Penn St
UF
OU
and the most recent addition, Oregon.

other than that is Virginia Tech REALLY a better job than Nebraska, is Arkansas REALLY a better job than Wisconsin? I'm sure BERT would say so, but beyond those 15 I listed, I think youre in an entirely different tier. some will probably argue the 15 i listed could be in separate tiers but I would say those are the most desirable jobs in FBS.
