He makes a lot of decisions that are tough for the fanbase to swallow, including myself. I hated the man since he got here until 1/9. But I have the upmost respect for him for enduring the hatred of the fanbase. He doesn't put out 11-1 teams every year, but he is always in the mix. I think we have a good thing going for us moving forward next year and for the following three years. I hope I'm right and I'm prepared to receive flack, GO!

The dude served hot cocoa on the sidelines.

His mindset has got to get tougher

We haven't seriously contended for the SEC West since 2011. He's paid a great deal of money not only to content for championships but to win them. I'm not in favor of firing him yet, but if he chooses to leave on his own, by no means should LSU offer him a raise or another contract extension to keep him. He's not worth it.

how is he always in the mix when we finished 5th in the west this year? you can't be in the mix if you are 5th in your division.

I know there are people here who actually want him to leave, but he's not going anywhere. Buyout is very high at the moment.

It's not easy for a new coach to waltz in and win a championship. Saban lost to ULM his first year at UA. We're better off with him next year to see if this talent he recruited matured into a force.

I am ready for a change. Miles is above average but not great. I think this is one of those situations where both parties could be in a better spot if he goes to Michigan.

I won't miss him if he goes. His coaching style is boring and very predictable! In this modern, win-or-you-out playoff race, we need a new offensive philosophy and that may be too much for Les to change.

The fan base doesn't hate Les. You have 20 faceless clowns who couldn't carry Les' jock in life come here to bash the guy because they have nothing better to do in their life.

The large majority of the fan base likes the guy.

If you hated Les after his first three years here, you are a nut case.

Wait. So you hated him for 6 years, from 2005 on until 1/9 happened, whereupon you began loving him and have loved him ever since?

If CLM does leave(which is very unlikely), Alleva will royally frick this hire up. Miles needs to stay. If we have a couple of key pieces back from this years team, we're going to be contenders next year. And I don't buy into the whole AH/BH is JJ/JL 2.0. Jefferson and Lee weren't that different talent wise. One could run the other couldn't. There's no doubt that Harris is physically more gifted than Jennings. If he puts in the work in the offseason like he should, there's no way that he backs up Jennings next year. There's no way that Les/Cam sit Harris if they feel he is truly ready and gives them the chance at winning championships. Jennings does what he's asked to do and seems more calm out there. That's his only advantage. He won't have that advantage next year. Harris will take the job this offseason IMO. And with that, and a couple of upperclassmen coming back, this team will be contenders. If Les leaves there won't be any contending next year, no matter what.

I would really like him around but I'm all for him leaving if it prevents us from having to watch AJ start the next 2 years.....the guy just doesn't have what it takes in the need to develope qbs.

I want you to seriously think for one second where LSU football would be if Mett hadn't been kicked off Georgia's team. Miles' issue is simply he doesn't have the ability to make the right decision there and it will haunt us while he's in charge. Doesn't mean we won't recruit well and win games.

No one puts out 11-1 teams every year except the future HOF coach at Bama and maybe you can add Meyer to this. Miles wins. He has two SEC champsionships and one NC in 10 years. He also had us in another NC game after an undefeated season only 3 years ago.
