Would not trade Les for Saban under any circumstances.

When Saban was here, I liked that we won, but other than that I couldn't stand the guy.

The SEC channel does a thing about the coaches wives and interestingly, his wife acts like a douche too.

She may be very nice, but that's not how she appears.

us fans were so tired of losing that saban could have been just over .500 and we would have loved him. at the time, I didn't think i'd live long enough to ever see another LSU NC. saban will always be worshipped here because of that. and, by the way, SABAN DID IT WITH DINARDO'S PLAYERS. if miles did it with saban's, saban did it with dinardo's.

personally, I credit both coaches with winning with THEIR players as they won it in their 3rd year.

I appreciate what Saban did for LSU while he was at LSU. But while he baffles and frustrates me sometimes, I'd take Les Miles over Nick Saban and all his hardware, every time! Les is true-blue LSU.

Agreed. He also displayed tendencies to lose the focus of his players, something that rarely if ever happens with Les. Everyone makes mistakes, but the Tigers had 3 absolutely bizarre losses in Saban's five years. UAB, Arky-'02 and of course, his last game, the Iowa debacle. All three of those were as bad as the '09 OM loss which is generally looked upon as the worst coaching job by Miles.

Miles is great but anyone that says they would take Miles over Saban is either a)lying or b) challenged in critical thinking. Saban will go down as one of, if not the greatest college football coach of all time.

Yes I know Miles is nice and Saban is mean, but all that matters is championships and that's a fact.
