Miles took over a 3 loss program that had 1 top 5 finish in over 2 decades.


True, but with the players he inherited, he had 3 top 5 finishes, 1 sec and one nc in 3 years. Once those players were gone...1 top 5 finish, 1 sec and 0 nc in 8 years.

He's 24x more likely to finish top 5 with Saban's players.

I believe Ricky Jean Francois, Richard Dixon, Brandon lafell, Joseph barksdale, drake Nevis, and I'm sure more we're miles players. Not sure we win it w/o those players.

The players that were so called Saban players were coached for three years by miles and sat the bench under Saban.

However, the best and most talented football team in lsu history was 2011. All miles players.

Argument is really dumb. Saban is the best coach. Miles doesn't get enough credit for being as good as he is. He's a top 10 coach in his era and there really isn't a valid argument against it.
