Glad he was able to retire on his own terms, but it is still not "official." As Rich Rod.

 

[bamaboy007]

when the coach says the the writers that he will go over the specifics in a press conference on Monday about his retirement...that is official to me

 

[Bama1970]

And the search begins.........

Not the best timing in the world for LSU's end of the season "push" for a NC.

Let the coaching carousel begin!

Perfect timing:biggrin:

I can't say anything for sure, but rumor has it I've been offered the job. No word, however, on my take on this rumor.

I wish they'd offer it to me. For about 3 mil a year, i'd take it. I'd just have a good buy-out clause in it for when they fired me for going 0-12 :biggrin:

I'd take it for $200,000 a year, possibly get fired and take a nice vacation before I went back to work!

ESPN seemed like they felt that it was a lock that Les Miles would be their primary target. Am I the only one wondering why?

Half his head coaching wins came in 2 seasons with CNS players. And while I know he's a media darling right now, I find him to be less of a "gambler" and would instead classify him as at least somewhat reckless. Where in the country is a betterplace to be a reckless idiot than LSU? (And honestly, thats not a knock but a term of endearment)

I just fail to see him having long term success in the conservative Big X, especially at the ultraconservative Michigan.

All you need is a D coordinator. Any goober can call 24 HB Dive plays on offense with a few passes thrown in.

What is this "Pass"?

It's always annoying when people destroy the meaning of a word.

It's not "official". The word official has meaning and when the original post was created it was not official. It seemed inevitable, but it certainly wasn't official.

Officially, Unofficial?

I know it's a remote possibility, but any chance that they come after Coach Saban? It may seem illogical, but I did give it a thought. Of course, I also thought I had a shot at Kathy Ireland when I was 19....

 

[victory hunter]

Good bye crazy lester!!!

No, but does lsu think they have a shot at nicky satan(their term) when les leaves

 

[bamaga]

michigan fans better be pulling for arky or lsu's opponent in the seccg, otherwise they may be on an emotional ride the next 7 weeks or so, or do they wait!
