Phildog has apparently been talking to Les Miles. What’s the packs thoughts?? I kinda hoped we talked to him. I think he would kill it in Knoxville

Haha. Les is a good coach. And i love his interviews. I would have loved him in maroon and white. I know I’m in the minority

I would love for him to get the UT gig. I think his time has past, but he's good fun for the conference. I would rather Auburn hire him after Gus leaves.

Phil must want the job to get even more unattractive after a couple years with Les so he’ll have no choice but to coach himself. At that point, fans will be upset with the President for the situation they are in and Phil will force him out too, making him the first ever President, AD, football coach trifecta.

You’d think by now Phat Phil would have run out of backs to stab.

Les WAS a very good coach. Way past his prime though. Too inflexible to change as the game changed and he got left behind. He wasted a lot of talent his last 5 years at LSU.

Miles biggest problem was the complete inability to recruit or develop a good quarterback.

I, too, think les would do good at UT. I know he didn't as well as people thought he should in his last years at LSU, but a new challenge just might be what he needs. UT could do worse.

I like Les. Better coach than he gets credit for being. However, he would not have been a good fit for us. At this point of his career he's a better caretaker coach. Tennessee would be perfect for him since they have a great amount of underdeveloped but excellent talent and need stability more than anything else right now. If he could bring in a good qb developer he might crack the code.

If the best of the last 5 years of your tenure is matched in year 1 by Ed Orgeron you aren't an elite coach any more. Chavis has been elite much more recently than Miles.

Les Miles benefited from the Saban effect. Much like whoever follows behind Saban at Bama will.

So, what does it say about Stan Cullen that he was going to accept a job no one wanted? If Dick Trickling hadn't called him while tripping on tryptophan, Ivan Mowling would have that shatty job.
