In the days following Gary Andersen’s sudden departure form OSU, we put out an article listing possible candidates for the job. One of the names that I put on that list was Les Miles. Now honestly at the time I didn’t think that was a realistic possibility, but given the fact that he was an unemployed coach reportedly looking to get back into the profession I figured I may as well toss him in, plus it was a good excuse to put in a video of one of his great press conferences from his time at LSU.
His name has been tossed around here and there, including rumors of him visiting Corvallis in the past few weeks, but until yesterday there had been no substantiated reports of interest on either end.
