Title: 5 Coaches Who Could Replace Les Miles At LSU

Kirby Smart: Smart has coordinated some of college football’s best-ever defenses at Alabama. He’s been in the same position under Nick Saban since 2008. They are paying him a boat load to preclude him taking a non-Power 5 head coaching job. He’s only 39. He could be a candidate for a number of jobs. Though, it’s hard to see paying that much to get rid of Miles to hire a defensive coordinator.

I don't see Mullen, Kirby, or Dabo going there. Gundy is a fascinating idea, but Jimbo seems the obvious one but does he want to leave the easy ACC conference?




 :duh:

That list is laughable.

Smart being the exception.

Mullens has his positives, but big risk for him, and bigger risk for lsu.

The crazy cajuns finally got their wish.

They have been trying to get rid of ol' les since the first year he got there.

I hope it ends horribly for those of red stick.

The only possibility on that list is Mullens.

Forget Smart, doubtful they'll even consider him after the beatdown this year.  Cajun anus is still burning over that one!

Agreed. 

1.  He recruited Dak Prescott as a QB, not as a TE like Les Miles.

2.  He has a better record over the past two years than Les, despite coaching the perennial bottom dweller of the SEC West, MS State. 

3.  He keeps MS State competitive with the top of the conference with lesser talent.

4.  He can coach an offense that is something other than ground and pound.

Yeah, the fans have a lynch mob mentality and won't be happy until Les is gone. Then they'll be less happy with what happens to their team afterward. Les has a higher winning percentage at LSU than Saban did.

Mullen move from one SEC West team to another? Don't see it.

Yeah, didn't Dinardo move from Vanderbilt to LSU as a "lateral" HC move?  I don't see Mullen doing that though...

Don't forget Ears going from Ole Miss to the barn.

Bingo.  Carl must've just forgot about that.

My only point was that Mullet head was the only reasonable name on that list.

Agreed.  Whether he makes that kind of move is a different question.  There is precedent, and I think it would actually be an upgrade for LSU. 

Houston Nutt to Ole Miss?

LSU fans also view Saban to Bama as a lateral move.   :lol2:

Does it count if you leave in a pine box?  :lol2:

I guess this guy doesn't count since he was unemployed for a couple of days:

I hope Smart goes outside the SEC. This is a brutal league for on-the-job training as a HC. Maybe a place like Virginia Tech, UCF, North Texas, Minnesota or places like Memphis if their coach is hired by another program.

I actually hope CKS waits at least another year because leaving right now would mess up our train of thought. We don't need anymore distractions during this run. It is ours if we keep our minds focused. RTR!
