Sports Illustrated's Ross Dellenger reports that Kansas is finalizing a contract agreement with former LSU HC Les Miles.
Per Dellenger, an announcement on Miles' hiring could come as early as this weekend. The former Tigers head coach has been linked to the open job in Lawrence ever since the team fired David Beaty at the beginning of the month. He and KU AD Jeff Long have a relationship which goes back to the 1980's. Miles went 114-34 at LSU prior to his midseason firing in 2016, but would be in for a major rebuilding project with Kansas should he accept this job. Potential contract length and monetary terms, here, remain an unknown. Stay tuned. |

Yup, I'll take Miles all day everyday. Great hire for our program peeps.
My best bud is an LSU alum, he loves Miles as well.

I’m not against this hire...
...but what’s in it for Les? At 65 years old, he isn’t going to be very desirable to other programs at, say 70 years old if he does the unthinkable and turns the KU Football Program around. Is he thinking he will retire at KU? Is he just looking for another pay day from a programs with little expectations like so many others? I just don’t get the hire from Les’ side of things...

Yeah, Les squandered a lot of NFL talent at LSU with an ancient offensive philosophy. Not sure how well that will translate to Kansas or the Big 12. A Leach disciple probably would be a better fit?

He gave up $5 million to coach at one of the three worst Power Five schools. So even if his contract is 5/15-20, he'll be losing a quarter to a third of that. Miles recruited well at LSU, but that school recruits itself. I'm sure he'll bring in better recruits to Kansas, but his archaic philosophy will hamstring them.

I doubt that a 65-year-old with a dinosaur philosophy is in much demand for a lot of jobs. He recruited well at LSU, but they didn't have any drop off in recruiting after bringing in Orgeron.
