Remember when some of us wanted Les Miles?

Well, he’s doing well with Kansas. Has them 1-1, and currently beating Boston College 41-24 right now and they were 19.5 point underdogs.

I was in the camp of trying to hire Miles. Anyone think our record would be better with him?

I was pro Miles once it was clear Mullen was off to Florida and Schiano had been prevented.

Still not upset with Pruitt being hired but Les Miles was my number 1.

Getting fired from your dream job when you’re relatively 5-10 years from being at retirement age (in the coaching industry) easily motivates you to get back to that level.

Les miles would be 0-2 right now with this team. Kansas didn’t have to play juggernauts like BYU and Georgia State. Two completely different schedules so you can’t compare.

Nice performance tonight, but just looked up their schedule. Not exactly an impressive first couple of weeks for Les.

Better than our current record would not be much of a feat.

But yea, I can see hiring the guy that with elite talent couldn't beat BAma. Another dream fit for us.

He played for a National title since Bama got dominant. And he did beat them. Only once. But he did. And quite frankly who else out there, besides Dabo, beats Saban more then once. We are a train wreck.

He had elite talent and couldn't do it. Why hire someone that has already proven they can't do it.

I'm sure our record would have been the same or better w Miles.

Probably still loose to BYU because of players with Tennessee having 4 of the top 5 defensive players not playing.

Win against Georgia state because of Miles experience as a HC knowing you always have to have your team ready to play regardless of opponent.

At this point, I think our record might be better if they hired Pee Wee Herman.

You take a job like Kansas after getting fired from LSU unless you’re re-motivated in your coaching career.
