& miles had no backup plan. the best he could was hatch, & a redshirt freshmen?


And that is my biggest problem with Miles

And what people don't understand is this (not having a back up to RP) is really more Saban's fault than Miles.

Saban recruited NO QBs in the 04' class and had none on the hook for the 05' class.

AND because Saban played his "I'm happy at LSU and will NOT be coaching at Miami" game LSU was late in starting/securing the next Head Coach.

Therefore, Miles, when he became that next head coach was WAAAAAAY behind in recruiting AND only had 15 0r 16 Scholarships to give.

Landing RP was considered a major accomplishment as he was the top QB in the nation at the time.

QBs don't grow on trees and Miles did not 'inherit' an ideal situation in that department.

The time bomb (RP) went off and 2008/2009 was the casualty of that explosion.

I'm not totally confident in JJ or JL at this point but I think they both have the potential and both deserve our RESPECT and patience.

Get behind them (and OUR Coach) and GEAUX TIGERS!
