He got fired from Nebraska after going 9-3 in 2003. The Cornhuskers wanted more, but they got an NFL coach named Bill Callahan.
Now that Pelini is there, they are starting to get a little respect again...finally.

Miles made a horrific coaching call, and he deserves criticism. However, as we have seen the stats posted here "The Hat" has a great record. Not to meniton we still have a chance to win 10 games.

Miles shouldn't have to learn this lesson the hard way, but he has. You all can be upset, I know I am. But let's be a little realistic. We will not win a championship every year.

Not a Solich situation.

Not even similar.

That people can still have this point of view baffles me.

IT'S MORE THAN THE DEBACLE YESTERDAY.

Yesterday was just the culmination of the same type of shite Miles has been doing year in and year out over and over and over again and in the past we've been good enough to overcome the screw ups. Now, we aren't.

Everyone is well aware we won't win championships every year but the product on the field is not nearly good enough.

Breaking news - we're not Nebraska. We actually have talent in our own state.

We just need someone who can coach.

The school recruits itself.

yesterday was simply the tip of the iceberg, a lot of us have seen this for 5 years, this was simply the one time that DIRECTLY cost us a game, so all of the blind followers are now seeing it, there are still those like you though that still choose to make excuses for the man

Remember Ron Zook? He went 9-3 and got fired. UF then got a guy who lead them to NCs and could easily lead them to a third.

Remember Mike Shula? He was one season away from a 7(or 8) and 0 start(Which JR ended) and he got fired. They replaced him with a guy who will likely lead them to back to back undefeated regular seasons.

I can keep going.

I think everyone agrees that Miles can't get the job done but what IF we did get a worse coach and shite really went downhill? Everyone says LA has talent but that talent will look elsewhere if we really tank.

The "hat" has 5 wins against teams with records below .500, and two other wins are against 6-5 UGA and ULL.

His wins fricking suck.

Fear..fear..fear..fear of becoming Nebraska..a school on the wasteland Plains in a talent-barren state..where Dr.Tom far into his career was able to import all his skill and talent to finally win a national title..and use an now antiquated steroided walk-on program of local Huskers 100 deep..

Stay where you are LSU fans..don't aspire to win national titles here forth..be content to be the new era Cholly Mac to Saban playing Bear at Bama..

Risk becoming Miami for canning your modern-day Coker..

Tigerfans..remember Frank Solich

Tigerfans remember USC post-John Robinson

Tigerfans remember Michigan post-Lloyd Carr



F@CK FEAR!! PLAY AND HIRE TO WIN!

Solich ran Nebraska's recruiting program into the ground. Smoke Laval is the comparison you are trying to make--not les Miles.

Miles still has a few things to learn about clock management, he has masteed most of all the other coaching skills--which is 99% of the job.

If you are scared, say you are scared.

LSU deserves competence.
