The Root of the Les Criticism IMHO
Can be summed up in three words:
He's.
Not.
Nick.
This has ALWAYS been the problem for some, and since day one have looked for reason to vilify the guy. That's not to say he's been perfect...no coach ever has been. But then that's the point, isn't it? Miles is seemingly held to standard literally no other coach is, or has been. We've got people bitching on this site because they are unable to see that other than BAMA there is literally no other program in the nation we ought to envy...
It's not debatable that Les has been more successful then Nick was as LSU's coach. The numbers don't lie. Les' problem was that where Nick was able to tell the fans to essentially go frick themselves because he was working on the process (and for the first time in the history of our state EVERYONE seemed to get on board) Les seems more affable and more of a target for criticism.
Truth is for some here, no amount of winning or championships or anything would make Miles equal to their long lost unrequited love now residing in Tuscaloosa.

Les didnt build the program. Saban built it Les has done a decent job of running it. It's not as good a program as when Saban left but it's good.

Another big thing people hate is that he is awkward. I rather enjoy listening to the sentences he throws together and his mannerisms on the field. I much rather watch him chew grass than have a stroke like the OBC or Saban.

This deserves to be cataloged in the TD "best of" page. Every time people bitch about Les, this should be posted.

Wrong.

I guess the Miles "haters", as you call them, would rather have Bama envy LSU.

I actually disagree with this statement. I think Les would have finally overcome the Saban stigma last year, but he blew it in the NC game. And then he took another big hit this year. With many fans he is now back to square one in the Saban-Miles derby.
