Just kidding. $27 million. Oops.
@SportsCenter: REPORTS: LSU coach Les Miles has an offer on the table to become new Arkansas coach, according to source. Deal is reportedly 5-yr/27.5M.

He must have a buddy at Arkie that he's using to leverage LSU....cuz ain't no way he's goin to Arkie.

We better hope he doesn't go...cuz LSU would be in GPs livingroom in 2 hours..and GP would be G-O-N........

"only" makes 3.75 per yr at LSU so its a large bump. Agree it is all about leverage...of course most LSU fans would probably help Les pack his bags.

Yep LSU fans HATE Les...despite his 2 NCs...

Les is a younger Mack with one more NC...but no nearly as well spoken...

He wouldn't leave for Arkansas, he wouldn't leave for UT (either) and he wouldn't leave for LSU. Give all the reasons, but he won't leave. He'll retire here.

LSU is a better fit for GP than UT.

That said, the timing is wrong---GP isn't leaving. Stefan Stevenson just tweeted he's been told TCU would match the offer Arkansas made to Miles if it was made to GP. So money isn't a factor. CGP isn't ready to leave TCU yet, period.

If Les didn't leave for Michigan his DREAM job I doubt he would leave for ark. Les allegedly has a condition in his contract that allows him take the HC job at Michigan without penalty.

LSU is one of the 5 best jobs in the country...and if it came open...it would HANDS down be the best one.

I think there are ten truly "best" HC jobs--but with unlimited resources and giant fanbases come extraordinary expectations. All these are also incredibly difficult jobs------Texas, Alabama, LSU, Michigan, Ohio State, Nebraska, USC, Notre Dame, Florida, Oklahoma.

There are good arguments for Stanford, Oregon, Tennessee, Auburn, Michigan State, Clemson, Georgia, and South Carolina to be on the list. TCU isn't there, but if CGP has extensive success at TCU in the Big 12 it could.

Michigan state? Want to play 3rd fiddle to Ohio state and Michigan with half the facilities?

Always someone here to ignore context and try to be unnecessarily combative. I was just assembling a list of top 10-20 jobs. The same argument you make can be said for Georgia/Florida---"who wants to play second fiddle to LSU/Bama". The SEC, B1G, Big 12, and PAC12 are the top conferences, thus all the "top 10" lists will include 2-4 from a single conference. Top 20 lists will include 3-6 from each. MSU is a great gig. IMO, probably #4 in the B1G behind Michigan, tOSU, and Nebraska.
