may be on the way out at LSU.

I was wondering what some of you think about us hiring him.

There are some other coaches in college I would prefer like Harbaugh, Urban Meyer, and maybe even Nick Saban though I really think he is a scumbag of a person. And Myles has a better chance of actually being available unlike Harbaugh & Meyer.

LSU would have to be out of their minds, along with the alumni to get rid of Les Myles. One of the finest collegiate football coaches ever. As far as Les going to the NFL? Could be a snowball's chance in an inferno. It would have to be one of the most overwhelming offers ever put out by an NFL team for him to leave the college ranks. JMO.

Let me get this straight. Nick Saban is a scumbag, but you want Les Miles? A guy who called an 18 yr old kid a coward because he had the audacity to back out of his commitment to LSU. A guy who lets the team vote on whether a fellow player should get suspended for sucker punching another student.

You better believe I'm serious. So, nothing, according to you over the last 11 years during Miles' tenure @ LSU means nothing except that he's accused of a vote to have a player sucker punch another? Miles tells it like it is. Not like it ain't. So sue him.

You read that wrong. Jeremy Hill sucker punched a kid outside of a bar and good ol Les let's his teammates vote on the consequences. If he tells it like it is then just say you don't give to %s what happened and I'm going to start Jeremy Hill. But not Les, he shifts the blame to the 19 yr old players. But what do you expect from a 40 yr old coach who called an 18 yr old recruit a coward for spurning LSU.

If he becomes available, and I'm looking for a head coach for my NCAA football team as Sports Athletic Director, I'm taking him.

Where's Jeremy Hill now? Oh yeah, starting RB for the Cincinnati Bengals. Do I care what the real story was surrounding all the garbage I've read about Miles?

Not a chance.

What does Jeremy hill being talented enough to play in the NFL have to do with anything? I guess you are pointing out that Les can recruit.....ok.

Recruit, coach, players love him, represents LSU admirably, and recognizes talent much better than a lot of other NCAA teams and coaches. Yeah, Alabama is their thorn in the side. I think he's 5-7 there. Miles to me, at least, is one heck of a collegiate HC.

Miles has consistently produced some of the worst offenses in all of CFB. I'm talking vanilla, totally inept offensive schemes.

Not someone you want in charge of a franchise QB.

Zibby43, scroll back and read my posts. I never said Miles would be a good, very good, great, NFL prospective HC. I believe he needs to stay in the NCAA. And while we're at, go take a look at Miles' record while @ LSU. I'd take him to coach my NCAA team in a heartbeat, if I were an Athletic Sports Director looking for a HC and he was free to do so.

As far as HCing in the NFL? No. I stated a "snowball's chance in an inferno". Much different venue as you well know.

No, besides to my knowledge having zero NFL experience, the guy has underachieved for a number of seasons now with LSU. He did win one title at the NCAA level, but I don't think that is enough to think he is going to come in and take the Colts to the next level.

I'm not picking on you at all but I alway find it funny how these NCAA programs fire these types of coaches or force them out! You used the word "underachieved", Miles' record the last 6 seasons: 2010- 11-2, 2011 13-1(National title), 2012 10-3, 2013 10-3, 2014 8-5 and this year 7-3 so far. Those are great records for any program. Ask Texas and Nebraska about how they feel about their most recent coaching hires. I just shake my head at these situations because a guy who has gone 110-32 at your school shouldn't be getting forced out. It's ridiculous.

Hey, Adonis 1, what's goin' on, man? Miles is on his way out because he's lost his last 3 games in a row & has a tough time beating Alabama. (5-7) Yeah, it's that simple. Yeah, over 11 years ...Never mind the Championships, never mind the SEC titles, never mind his incredible overall record, never mind how many times LSU has been ranked in the Top 5-10 nationally, never mind he's a great collegiate coach, never mind he's a great recruiter, never mind players love him.

LSU wants a coach that never loses, and wins the national title every 3 years. Good luck.

Miles... No. I've seen enough LSU games and what he'd bring to the table. He would literally do nothing for the Colts, and I guarantee by his second year his forum would be calling for his head.

You people confuse me. You don't want Saban, but you want Miles... Uh... What?

I believe just about everyone concurs in the thread that Miles should not become an NFL coach. We've been talking about the tenure and questionable longevity Miles has left at LSU and whether he's a good NCAA coach.

Not fair, but when you put more players in the NFL than any other program, you better be getting to the title game more often....or at least that's what fans expect. I believe this is the only reason Saban would leave Bama....you lose two games and the seasons a failure. That's a lot of pressure no matter who you are...especially in a small college town.

Les Miles WILL continue as LSU HC! Breaking news per ESPN after their victory over Texas A&M. He was carried off the field by his players. Best winning coach percentage over the last 25 years. .776 111-32. Over 11 years.

LSU AD : "Miles is our football coach and will continue to be our football coach."

Like I stated earlier in this thread. LSU would've been out of their minds to let Miles go. Common sense & logic prevails in the great state of Louisiana tonight.

LSU would have been dumb to fire him.

      Wide Receivers are getting paid!

      By smittywerb · Posted

      This contract makes me think about the other receivers who will now get contracts and how are the teams going to go about it:   Jamarr Chase:  he’s definitely getting $28million or more.  I don’t see Higgins staying unless there are numerous reworks and pay cuts from other teammates.  I’m sure Boyd and Burton will be their WR2 and WR3 in the future.  Bengals will definitely pick up his 5th year option, but what will happen in 2026?   CeeDee Lamb:  he’s getting paid also.  He’s gotten better every year and last year was a MONSTER year for him.  Let’s see what Jerry does.  He has Dak and Ceedee to pay and both are going to command some big contracts.     seems like aiyuk is the last one because I’m pretty sure anyone else will either have their 5th year option picked up or have gotten paid.   props to Ballard for getting Pittman paid before the top dogs like JJ set the market.

      Gotcha. Wentz was  one of the most talented qbs in the league based on physical traits. The Colts, in their assessment of Wentz, didn't realize they were not getting the same player mentally. I am not a Wentz apologist but I do,  and said it at the time, the Oline needed to take some responsibility in what he became. He was battered and bruised by the lack of protection and I think the beating he took in Philly and the early one he took with the Colts, knocked whatever was left of a starting qb in that body and mind. The point I am making is this. We can say he is our franchise LT and say he played really well and is deserved of a  big 2nd contract.  If one were just to look at it objectively.  Say fans and Colts media have him rated as a 7.5 and based on Cosell's comments he has him as a 5.0. Do you think Cosell could be so way off in his evaluation of Raimann? That is just what I found interesting. I mean I could say Cosell say that Raimann was say average and go okay, we can live with that. To say that he is not the answer and/or has not panned out is a different monster all together.
