re: Les Myles hypothetical

He's a great recruiter, which is part of his job. There was a time when that LA talent went to Miami, FSU, Tennessee, out west, etc. It's easier recruiting it to LSU but it's not a given it goes there. Getting rid of him without having a known big time hire on the line is taking a big chance

Once Saban got the momentum going, recruiting there was easy. Les continued it, which is not nearly as difficult.
