Ok, so admittedly still not an insider but I did tell you guys from Day 1 that aside from all the other nonsense and misinformation that was being thrown about Steele was one of Les' top choices.

I posted this before and I'll do so again now, but there was a major dogfight for Steele's services several years ago and Saban got him. According to some former LSU players under Saban who are now in the coaching business Saban has a lot of trust and faith in Steele. A LOT. When he wants to bounce defensive ideas off someone he goes to Steele, not Smart. Saban has been quietly pimping Smart as a HC so he could promote Steele to DC.

I wasn't joking earlier when I posted that everyone would be scratching their heads if we hired Smart and Saban promoted Steele to DC. Les just gut punched Saban.

I'm not excited about the hire, but there is more to this than meets the eye. Les searched for the right hire and after interviewing a lot of people he went back to his gut instinct and hired Steele.

Wow. People like this will eat any shite sandwich that Alleva/Les try to feed them.

Pathetic.

Having direct knowledge of his suckness through FSU, Clemson, and in general, this was and is the absolute worst hire possible.

Pick any name mentioned previously and his is the worst. How can the like of Del Rio (never gonna happen), Smart, Shoop, Stoops, and so onbe mentioned and THIS is the hire?

Completely pathetic.

And the timing tells me that ABSOLUTELY no one else wanted it. Not the Oregon guy(who sucks too). Not the OSU guy (Fickle). Not anyone.

There could not have been a more ridiculous hire than this one. Complete joke.

Can only hope we got him on the cheap. If he fleeced us for anything over 1mill, we got robbed!

This is the kind of hire failure that sees the end of Les at LSU.

Program Killer.
