re: What's Vol nation's opinion of Les ?

I wouldn't hate the hire provided he had a really strong staff.

However, I don't get the stabilizing thing and I have read that a lot. Just hire somebody who will win football games and that will stabilize the program more than anything.

There are still plenty of good coaches who understand this is a really good job where you can win big, and relatively quickly.

I guess what I am saying is hiring Les Miles basically says, "hold on a few years while we figure shite out". Doesn't really seem to be a program building hire to me, but, of course, would prefer him to some garbage like Schiano or Doeren.
