Les is on the hot seat. Funny how there are so many folks on here that think he does no wrong an can't understand why he's in the position he's in.

I've never seen one single post that comes close to that.

I've seen some defending him from excoriation. I've seen some in support of him. But, never one that matches your assertion.

If by hot seat you mean he'd get fired on the insanely anemic chance we miss a bowl game, then yeah I guess he is. The question is, who the hell do you want to get? Its not like there are a bunch of great coaches out looking for work. You'd also have to explain to the coaches why you fired a guy who won a national championship less than 5 years ago and has consistently recruited top 10 classes. People won't be clawing to get a job here in that situation.

In a clinical setting, this phenomenon would be labeled "denial." And so it may be. But then we'll all find out for sure soon enough.

To some people being the Head Coach at LSU is like thye Pope. On football matters they thinks he's infallible.

I am a Miles defender, but in no way do I think he can do no wrong. Has he made mistakes? Hell yea. What coach hasn't? Has he let a team drive 80 yards in two plays with only 20 seconds or so on the clock to keep us out of the SEC title game? Has he let yet another team score on us as time ran out to cost us a bowl victory? Has he lost to the likes of ULM or UAB?

One thing I give Miles credit for is that he hasn't stood pat. He has addressed problems on the team. He got rid of RP - tough decision, but good move. He replaced the co-defensive coordinators after the debacle that was 2008 with Chavis and the defense showed marked improvement right away. This year, he has brought in offensive coaches who should help improve the WR and O-line play.

My question is, what the hell are you Miles bashers gonna do if the team wins 10 regular season games this year? My guess is you'll find something about those two losses that, in your feeble minds, are fireable offenses.

If LSU ends up having a dismal season this year, then I'd agree that something has to be done. So far, while I'm disappointed with the results the last two seasons, I haven't seen evidence that firing him is warranted.
