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.
