Wait, a 6-8 record against SEC opponents in the top 5 was supposed to be a negative?

Wow. Some people . . . just, wow.

struggling to win is irrelevant. this was a year inwhich pretty much the entire defense had to rebuild. we lost uga thanks to that. we lost ole miss thanks to an overaggressive OC and (or) qb; i guarantee you miles didn't dial up those long passes into double and triple coverage that were intercepted. this team was very close to being 12-1 or certainly 11-2. considering who we lost that was pretty damn good coaching this year.

of course, people view things different ways. you choose to trash les miles over a 10-3 record. there's so much critisism of les miles no matter what he does that he doesn't have a chance with some people.

No doubt. Now we got that out the way.

Dispute what I've said. Especially the W-L record in Bowl games last three years. 2 minute drill losses, etc. etc. etc


I have asked this many times...

name 3 teams other than bama that has had a better run than lsu under clm...

you will ignore this post like every miserable so called fan because you cant do it....

spin it what ever way you want but the fact is you and many others try to live your lives thru the success of 18 year olds instead of enjoying the games they play....

anyone who bitches about collage football to the point that some of you do need to get a life...

lsu football owes you not a god damn thing...

Agree...
The thing that always gets me about the miles haters is how they bring up the team's performance in WINS...
We almost lost to Arkansas...so what? We didn't...this is a stupid argument by these tards...
We also almost best Ga...does that make Mikes a better coach...?

I love how he included the Arkansas game this year as a negative on this point. Classic.

I wonder what he thinks of Bama's W-L record in Bowl games the last three days?

there's a large contingent of the LSU fan base that, deep down, hopes LSU slides into mediocrity just so their opinions of Les Miles can be validated.
True, except that it is not deep down at all. They are clear and obvious. LSU ranks far, FAR below "looking cool on an anonymous internet website and impressing people I don't even know" on their list of priorities.

Ah, so Bama didn't play football the first two years Miles was here? Or did they just not have a coach. I see what point you are trying to make, but in your rush to make up a reason to bash Miles you made a bullshite mistake and killed any relevance you might have had.

1980's arnsparger if lsu administration had worked with him may have set lsu for good run
instead he went to florida.


wrong. arnsparger wanted out of coaching and left to be the AD at florida. and he was a figurehead there. he would have sucked as AD at LSU and LSU did the right thing saying no. arnsparger was a damn good football coach (except in bowl games) but he should not be on this list. while the admin did good by letting him go they really sucked at selecting his replacement.

I just don't understand all the hate many lsu fans have towards coach miles.

It's simple: Many LSU fans are miserable and are pessimistic about life in general. These same flawed people expect those around them to be perfect. When things do not go the way they think they ought to go, they lash out and attempt to make those around them as miserable as they are. For these people, the glass will always be half empty. Ignore them.

I hope all you self-proclaimed psychiatrists are being well-paid for your stimulating and insightful diagnosis of fellow tiger fans.

You know it is possible....just possible.....that you can be a tiger fan and not think Miles is the greatest thing since sliced bread. The man has done a good job and racked up some impressive stats...which you all are always quick to point out....but for many people, his gaffes have tarnished some of what he's accomplished....it's really that simple.

No amount of bashing and berating by either side is going to change anything. Besides who GAF anyway....he's locked up for years to come.

None of this would matter anyway is Saban wasn't where he's at doing what he WAS doing.

it's funny people make fun of the way the man speaks when everyone in the world makes fun of how people from LA speak.

I know you can hate Miles and be a fan. But you are a shitty fan. Nothing this man has done should give anyone reason to not support him. Yet here we are throwing out names that we think would be a better coach, yet i sit here and see these names change every year because in fact the guy the miles hater wants ends up getting beat by miles and has a losing season. Then they shut up for a bit until the next name comes up.

Then i see other sec programs struggle with new head coaches, and to top that all off, the richest program in football makes a very underwhelming hire and cant even get their first choice guy.

Even after all that, they still want the best coach in LSU history to take a walk. I will be laughing at Texas when they win 5 games next year, and laughing at arky and tenn and uf.

Comparing mac's and miles' vs. saban and bear bryant makes a whole lot more sense than seeing how miles did against mike shula. If you don't like the wording, fix it, but that is their records against the two important bama coaches in their 1st 9 years. If thats the only thing you have to discredit the comparision i'll assume that you see exactly why i posted that.
