We're one day closer to learning who will be the next head Hog. Here's one guy we know it won't be: Les Miles. He just signed a big extension at LSU and he's been trending online all night. These are the top trenders Thursday morning.

Les Miles
It was announced Wednesday the he was staying at LSU . That news came just one day after rumors were flying about being offered a contract to coach Arkansas. Miles admitted to talking to the Rrazorbacks about their head coaching vacancy, but it looks like that was all just a ploy to get a fat raise.

Jon Gruden
Another guy rumored to be interested in the Arkansas job, but he's also said to be in the running for the head coaching gig at Tennessee. Wednesday, a report came out saying he was being offered a stake in the Cleveland Browns as part of the offer. The Browns are owned by Jimmy Haslam, a major donor to the University. However, Gruden and the Browns both said the report is not true.

Nuking the Moon
CNN recently uncovered documents that show the United States considering nuking the moon 1958. It was all part of a secret Cold War plot in reaction to the Soviet Union launching Sputnik. It wouldn't have destroyed the moon, but it would have left a small crater that wouldn't have been visible from Earth. The plan: simply to show the Soviets they could do it.

Kill (the Dollar) Bill
The Government Accountability Office wants to do away with the paper bill and replace them with coins. Here's why: it costs $0.05 to make a single dollar bill but they only last about five years. It costs $0.30 to make a dollar coin, however those last about 22 years. Making the switch would save the government $4.5 billion dollars over 30 years.

Powerball
The lucky numbers were pulled Wednesday night, and we already know two people have won. Someone in Missouri had the lucky ticket and an Arizona resident won too. However, their exact locations are still unknown and they have yet to come forward and claim their mega prize.
