Ex-LSU coach Miles' HOF candidacy in doubt after wins vacated

Former LSU head coach Les Miles may be ineligible for the College Football Hall of Fame after the Tigers vacated 37 wins as part of NCAA penalties announced Thursday, per ESPN's Adam Rittenberg.The school vacated victories from 2012 to 2015 because of recruiting violations. A booster provided impermissible benefits to the father of former player Vadal Alexander, who played for the Tigers during that span.LSU self-imposed the penalty after receiving a notice of allegations from the NCAA in March 2022. The school is currently on probation due to former offensive line coach James Cregg's recruiting violations, according to Yahoo Sports' Christina Huang.Miles established a 114-34 record as LSU coach from 2005 to 2016. He has a 145-73 record and .665 winning percentage throughout his collegiate coaching tenure, which included stops at Oklahoma State and Kansas. Coaches are required to have a .600 career winning percentage in at least 100 games to qualify for induction into the College Football Hall of Fame.The vacated wins would drop Miles' career winning percentage to .597 with an overall record of 108-73. A football coach is eligible for nomination into the hall of fame three full seasons after they retire. After the waiting period, the National Football Foundation assesses their candidacy.The 69-year-old Miles parted ways with Kansas in March 2021 after the school put him on administrative leave amid accusations of inappropriate behavior toward female students.
