Thanks for posting this. It lets me know you have no clue about lsu football. You just said the lsu coach with the ONE OF THE BEST TENURES IN SEC HISTORY, let alone lsu history, was a bad hire. You sir dont understand football. Bottomline.

I do know this. I know that you are an idiot of mega proportions and I know that Les Miles inherited a national championship caliber team that had already been recruited for him by Nick Saban even before he arrived on campus, and I also know that LSU won anyway once Les Miles arrived on campus despite Les Miles mediocrity, and because LSU won despite Les Miles the impression created was that Les Miles was somehow a great coach, which, of course, helped to fuel recruiting, but nevertheless was never true. I mean look at the way we lost games in 2005, 2006, and 2007.

Furthermore, as the years went by, each year we continued to lose games we never should have lost, via mismanagement Les Miles blue games we never should have blown, LSU year in and year out was always undisciplined, and each year our offense always stunk to high heaven, yet we still won most of the games because of the high quality of players we were able to recruit due mostly to a false impression that Les Miles was a good coach, because very fortunately we were the only flagship university in the state of Louisiana and also because we were located right in the heart of a mecca for college prospects. I’m just praying that we got rid of Les Miles before it was too late.

Again, had we made a good hire in 2005, as opposed to hiring a mediocre Les Miles, during the same times span, LSU would have won one or two, if not more national championships.

Indeed, you’re obviously one of the few unhinged loons that believe that Les Miles was God’s gift to coaching in the country. Nonetheless, even though Les Miles applied for a ton of head coaching jobs, no one was stupid enough to touch that incompetent with a ten-foot poll. Despite, as you always say ad nauseam, his outstanding coaching record.

Everybody knew that Les Miles had just gotten lucky and landed the right job at the right time. If Nick Saban had never preceded Les Miles, and Les Miles had ended up being hired at LSU in 2005 anyway, he would have lasted three years at LSU at the most. No way could someone that mediocre have rebuilt LSU from the ground up. I mean the guy couldn’t even conduct a decent press conference, let alone communicate dynamically to his football team how to play football. Indeed, in all of the years I observed Les Miles closely, I never once observed him being competent as a football coach not one time.
