re: If the LSU HC job was open, would Bielema be a good choice?

Sure. So would Knute Rockne, Vince Lombardi, and Bear Bryant. LSU could just as easily 'choose' one of them.

We understand that you have recognized that our coach would be a vast improvement over Miles, but LSU could never poach him as long as we want him.

Hell, you probably have the inside track on Saban in a year or two. Everyone can tell he is getting tired of Alabama's shite. You just have to live with Lester for a few more years.
