re: Question about Miles tied to recruiting

Too big of a risk to take with the rest of the staff potentially falling apart.

It is also a huge risk to continue to do what obviously isn't working.

Cowardice? How about minimizing risk while maximizing potential?

But we are not even close to maximizing potential now. Recruits see that and may choose to go elsewhere.

LSU's recruiting on the defensive side of the ball hasn't been this good in a very long time. Steele and Orgeron have put a recruiting plan in place and are recruiting to that plan. A HC change could completely ruin that.

You can say basically the same thing every year as an excuse not to change.

I fully acknowledge that recruiting may take a hit if Miles steps down. But it will take a hit whenever he does. Why wait. It's unlikely that these guys will come in and make that big of a difference as freshmen anyway. Lets stop wasting the talent we actually HAVE in order to sign nothing but POTENTIAL. Especially when that potential will be wasted by the current coach.
