Chances are Craig becomes interim OC. Will be interesting to see what happens if that's the case

Kind of wish we had the balls to fire that fast instead of waiting until end of season. Not with Gus but with chiz

Is this something to be happy about? They fired him immediately because they feel we suck and he lost to us.

Not sure if this is something that I feel too excited about...


And Cam Cameron is out also. Thats something. Guess they saw Dupree wide open all night also

or because LSU was a top 5 team to start the year with everyone having them as a shot to make the playoffs and they are now 2-2

Just read this...

According to a report from LSU’s Scout.com site, LSU has already reached out to both Houston head coach Tom Herman and former Baylor head coach Art Briles.

Agree. I actually find it insulting. Two long time, historically elite (I know Auburn is not "elite" right now) SEC programs play a hard fought game that could have gone either way, and they pitch a temper tantrum and sack their head coach the next day.

It seems unlikely that they can bring in anyone to salvage the season. Maybe they've got their eye on Briles and felt like they wanted to lock him down, but it's not like he or anyone else was not going to pick up the phone when LSU calls in November/December.

Miles certainly had his issues, but his body of work at LSU is impressive. Why would you want to insult someone like that firing them mid-season?

Ya, they fired him ONLY because of the Auburn loss last night...

Had nothing to do with anything else.

That is so stupid. We would have paid an extra $2mil and for no reason.

Every coach you'd hire already has a job so you are a sitting duck with an interim HC

I view it with a tad of disrespect too. Lost to bad AU team. I know this had been building since prob he lost to bama in the MNC, but we are no Vandy.

Props to them for doing it now. Possible jobs open at the end of the season. ND, TX, AU . Timing has a lot to do with these things.

I like this.

This is the equivalent of LSU's boosters showing the world their balls. I hope our big boosters are taking note.

We won a battle last night, but we better pay attention to the war.
