Shortly before the tide signed Saban away from the Miami Dolophins, LSU briefly considered welcoming him back. However, they reasoned that they had no reason to drop Les Miles seeing as he is like 24-2 as a head coach there. Now, at the end of the season, Miles is eyeing a new job. Where would he go that is better than LSU, you ask? No, USC is not releiving Pete Carroll of his duties, but someone else is: Miles' alma mater: current 1-2 Michigan. LSU's contract with miles states he is free to leave to any school but Michigan freely, but if he is to go to UM he would have to pay a fine of 1.5 million. Michigan is primed to drop Lloyd Carr at the end of the season and has let Miles know they would pick up his penalty fine. That leaves LSU without a coach. Will they accept Saban back with open arms? Or better yet, will Saban want to return to the perennial powerhouse? You decide......

Nick Saban will not leave Alabama at the end of this season or the season after that, there's no coach in the right mind would leave the ultimate job like Alabama, even Nick Saban who's everyone say he got no loyalty, will not leave Alabama. But Les Miles will leave LSU for Michigan, because that's Les Miles ultimate dream job and even LSU put a clause that's if Les Miles leave for any other job, there's no buyout but if he leave for the Michigan job there's a $1.5 million dollars buyout. So expect Les Miles to leave LSU for the Michigan head coaching job at season end. The Michigan head coach Lloyd Carr, it look like he's gonna leave and retire at season end. Now the LSU job is open but Nick Saban will not be a candidate, but it's gonna be fun with the speculation of who's the school gonna pick for their new coach is.

Saban will not return, he has no loyalty to any team. He will probably give Alabama one more year, than realize he was not handed a championship team and leave.
LSU is already on the brink of a championship - if they hire Saban and he doesn't win it in about 2 years, he will become a major distraction, leave as soon as possible, and leave the team in worse shape than it began with. I'm sure if he's asked though, coaching there again would be his "dream job", which he says about every place he coaches.

No. He usually waits two years before he goes running off. I can't wait to hear the Tide fans cry, *****, and moan after he high tails it out of Tuscaloosa for another j$b.
