I really hope LSU fires Les Miles.

Please let it happen. With the vacancies open this year they'll have to settle.

Dude's caught breaks against us every year. **** even in 2014 they came screaming back and almost won.

The only vacancy open this year that might even potentially affect them would be Southern Cal. You give any coach the choice of the LSU job or any of the other jobs currently open, and it's a no-brainer. If UGA fires Richt, that changes.

I hope he stays forever. If they get a good coach who can recruit and coach a QB they will be unstoppable with all the talent LSU gets every year.

That's been the case at LSU for 60 years. For all the resources they have, for my money, they're historically the most under-performing program in the country. They should be the Alabama of the SEC.

I like the known commodity of Les Miles. Would like to try and take advantage of it before they make a change.

They better be careful

Lots of teams think they'll be better off only to regress. Tennessee post fulmer. OM when they fired cutcliffe. Don't get me wrong, I think miles is a baffoon. I'd enjoy seeing the corndogs heads spin around an pop off tho if they fired him and it turned into a shitshow

I said this on the other board but if I was LSU, I would look at David Shaw at Stanford. He has a run first offense and the players are in place for him to step in and take over. He is smart, successful and proven winner. Keep O there for recruiting and bring in your coaches. Makes sense to me, not that as a State fan I am actually hoping for this!

Fisher will probably be in the mix close to the top if not the top

It's better for us if they don't fire him. Easier to recruit against if there is speculation that he might be fired.

See: Carolina, South.

If he's fired it will actually be about not beating Alabama. The last time they did the same thing to McLendon because of his inability to beat them. It took years for them to get back to square one. Nowadays it probably won't if they get the right guy, but probably still won't beat Alabama as long as Saban is there.

Let's see:

1.) Jimbo was rejected for consideration for the job when ole Les was hired
2.) Jimbo has won a National Championship at FSU
3.) Jim is in the best state for talent in the country
4.) He plays in the ACC for an easier path to the playoff.
5.) With incentives, Jimbo already makes more than Les (around $5.1 million compared to about $4.4 million).

Jimbo's not going anywhere.

I agree. FSU is every bit the college football super-power that LSU is, plus they don't have to worry about playing the Tide every year. Texas would be the only program with enough cash to pull Jimbo from FSU.

The list of who they might consider hiring is a bit like the one the Bears had before they got Freeze ... I guess LSU thinks they can get just anybody they want. Included were Fisher at LSU and Dabo at Clemson. And of course, John Gruden.

They may wind up doing what the Bears did ... get someone nobody had ever heard of.

Difference is, a guy like Jimbo or Dabo would be a lot more likely to leave for LSU than they would for UM. I bet they don't fire him unless they've already gotten some assurances that a big name coach is on board.
