Lsu thinks Les is more

Chizik! He's due now. Ready for the big time again.

This^^^  The timing is right.

LSU hasn't got time to go at this conventionally. They want a MNC NOW!

And there's the rub.  There's no denying that Miles has slipped and he doesn't have the same magic that he used to have.  But who are you going to go get?  Who is that rock star coach out there that can handle the pressure of "Hey, you're hired and you need to win a championship right now." while playing in the SEC West?

Rhett Lashlee.

Rhett Lashlee.

They'd have to pay Muschamp level money.

Franklin was forced to mesh with a bunch of offensive coaches that were a total 180 of his style, and resented him. HUGE difference. And I think most of that was due to Tubs loyalty, mainly to Nall.

Franklin has done fine everywhere else.

^^^This.The BBQ boys weren't going to change to this new fangled spread crap. Tub's to his credit had the foresight of recognizing what he was up against in Saban.
The problem was that he recognized right away this wasn't going to be a seamless transition and then there was the PTB to consider as well. LSS this was going to take too long and the risk didn't outweigh the reward at that time.
And now of course we see Tub's and Gran with an offense implemented with Cincinnati area talent which is coached up well but lacking somewhat in the skill positions relative to that of what would make them dynamic.

The most economical way to improve your situation is to catch lightning in a bottle. This way you get to keep Les while not paying an astronomical buyout. The entire program suffers far less upheaval with the staff, the current players and the incoming recruiting class to just pay a ringer a quarter mill to lead you to the promised land. Get two signal callers while your at it. All Les has to do then is to stay out of the majority of the playcalling so the OC looks like a genius.

No this shouldn't go into the other "thread" because it is a statement in and of itself with a title to indicate such. It isn't written to broadbrush a subject or as lengthy as a volume of the fucking Encyclopedia Britannica. I can picture the pouting with a balloon caption "Oh the indignation!"

According to LSU AD Joe Alleva "Les Miles is our football coach & he will continue to be our football coach"
Les stays.............good for him, he's one of the good guys.

Agreed.  I'm glad public opinion trumped big money fuckholes. 

Jay Jacobs is next... Gotta go, Jay.

BTW, FUCK YOU, Joe Schad.  Fuck you until you die of goat aids and penis breath.  Why the fuck is ESPN interviewing this dumb dick motherfuck wad of shit about "what can you tell me about the situation?" 

Why can't he just say "I don't know a fucking thing" instead of running his mouth about "very good sources."  Fuckhead. I can't stand looking at him.
