College football certainly has changed. To maintain success, you have to be flexible enough to change with it. I believe the era of lifetime - tenured coaches has passed. No more Paternos, Schembechlers, or Bowdens, who spend 30 years coaching at one place. Those days are long gone. There is a shelf life to coaching. To maintain the overall momentum of a program, you need to be willing to bring in new staff with fresh ideas. Has Miles reached that point? I don't know, but he is in his 10th season.

Just my opinion.

This. If Miles is willing to make some changes, I think we'll be ok. We may still lose 4 or 5 games this season, but I'll feel a lot better about the future. If he insists on riding his 3 yards and a cloud of dust 1970's Big X offense to LSU's first losing season in over a decade, then it doesn't bode well for LSU football in the future.

I don't expect him to totally retool the offense, but if he doesn't recognize that the current scheme doesn't work against the better defenses in the SEC, then I do believe that the game has passed him by.
