Samwell Tarly Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Maybe there's something I'm unaware of, but no one seems to mention Les Miles. All he did was turn LSU into a national powerhouse. Just curious if his style would work in the NFL. Fully aware college and pros are two different animals, but if you don't want a retread, is he worth an interview? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FluffHead Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 His offenses and in particular his QBs are always terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jr1 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 He lost 5 straight against Alabama. Coaching equivalent of test anxiety Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Clemsons Swinney? That one intruiges me more. Can some of our more expert college football fans give a view on whether he might make a good NFL coach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 (edited) Miles is not considered to be a good college coach and he actually held LSU back from being a "national powerhouse." He was able to recruit top players but he wasn't able to win with them consistently and that's why he got fired. LSU hasn't been considered one of the elite programs in awhile in terms of on field success despite consistently producing NFL talent. Â He also has an eccentric, unique personality and I think he ends up on ESPN. Edited December 30, 2016 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 No, no, no, no, no, no, no, HELL NO!!! Les Miles would make a good modified coach at Cheektowaga!!! No coach in history (not hyperbole) has done less with more. He makes Rich Kotite look like Vince Lombardi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 (edited) I will go as far as to say that I can't think of a coach I would less rather have (including Marv and Brian Kelly). Les is the absolute worst. Edited December 31, 2016 by Kirby Jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's so hard to differentiate being a great recruiter from a great coach. I'll use a guy like Dabo Swinney for example. He seems like a personable Gomer Pyle type who would say all the right things needed to land recruits. I don't know if he has the analytical mind needed to be a successful NFL coach.
