This would clearly be a step down from LSU, but Wolken follows up on his report with some blunt news: not many teams are in the market for a 62-year old head coach that just got fired.
Some of you guys are really overestimating the job market for Les. Not huge demand for guys on wrong side of 60 who run draconian offense

The would be another foray into the Big Ten for Miles, who has previously played and coached at Michigan. If the Purdue job doesn't happen, there is always a chance that Miles goes back to Michigan as an assistant or analyst.
