Les Miles to Tennessee?

[ShotgunDawg]

So Kansas best the hell out of BC and Vol fans are all over twitter wanting Les Miles now.

Here is my opinion: that would be an amazing hire for Tennessee and get their culture fixed. Les can develop players, recruit, and manage a program. He also seems fun to play for.

He would actually be the perfect hire for Tennessee.

Tenn could do much worse, but I'd go get Dave Clawson if I were them

I’m not even going to say who they’ll come after.... if they fire Pruitt. It’s obvious.

I'd go with Kansas State's coach. In his first year he's being picked to go into a SEC West stadium and win on the road after they got crushed at home by the same team last year.***

Obviously it?s not obvious. I have no idea who you are referring to.

Freezes????

He'd be smart to stick away from the SEC. He's a good coach and KSU will be good if they can keep him for a while. But he doesn't know the SEC recruiting ropes and doesn't have in-roads here. (I know your answer is non-serious, he just would objectively be a bad SEC hire while still being a good coach.)

I would love to see him back in the SEC.

Maybe. I'd go Les. I carries much more weight to get everyone on board.

That hire could put them in the dumpster for another decade.

The problem with Tennessee is that they lack the ability to make the mature decision on hirings

We've discussed this before, but a Les Miles type hire is exactly what Tennessee needs to make.

Les in incapable of being a losing coach. He may not have been able to beat Saban, but that's like saying someone that isn't as good at Math as Albert Einstein can't do math.

Les gets players to play up & he's good at building culture & developing. Perfect fit

What hire would set them back another 10 years? Freeze? If that’s who y’all are talking about, I guess it would depend on how “all in” they wanted to go in recruiting. If they won’t commit to buying players, then yeah, Freeze would tank there pretty quickly.

If we have a good year ...........

Me, I would hire The Pirate. He would be force at Tennessee

Was Saban, Urban, and Les Miles bad SEC hires? All of them were in same category prior to being hired into SEC.

ETA: They all had a longer D1 pedigree tho. But all were from outside the SEC. And all of them really made the SEC what it is today.

[Maroonthirteen]

Nevermind. Tennessee could keep Pruitt and be just the same if they hired Moorhead.

[PMDawg]

Hell, I'd take him here, tomorrow.

[RocketDawg]

Hell, I'd take him here, tomorrow.

Yeah, I was gonna say ... how about WE hire Les. I've always liked the guy anyway and he certainly has SEC experience.

[TUSK]

Sweet Baby Jesus, please let this happen.... Wait a minute...

As a Bammer, I really loathe UT... But I wouldn't even wish Les Miles on them...
