You said Petrinos amount of games qualifies as a season lmfao


Actually I pointed out he coached 13 out of 16 games which is 80%. 81.25% to be precise. And whether you like it or not many of his critics will point out he didn't finish the season. It's just a) it's too small of a difference to matter to avg his wins per season in the NFL.
quote:

The crux of your argument is it's not fair to count the 2016 season to Miles wpy avg when fair has nothing to do with i


You are using fair out of context. I'm saying it's misleading to count 4 games as a season when the typical season is 12-13 games and in some case 14. Counting 13 out of 16 games is technical not a season but close enough. If some NFL coach coached 11 years and was fired with 3 games left in the 12th is close enough. I'm sorry you can't grasp this but in a relatively small sample size there's a significant difference in 11.8125 and 11.333. I don't count 4 games as a season because it's Miles we are talking about I don't count it because it distorts the #s. Again if you count 6 wins for O it will distort his avg even though it's twice as many games. If he coaches til 2027 and wins 112 games I would say he avg 10 wins a year, even though counting 2016 would mean it's 9.83.

quote:

If a player enters a basketball game and never takes a shot that game still figures into his ppg avg it doesn't take 5 shots or 10 shots for the game to count


Thats just not the same, it's not because I'm trying to defend Miles. If an NBA player played 82 games but only played 1 minute in 60 of them someone would note that. Otherwise it doesn't matter because it's not significant.
quote:

I've posted his career stats which say 114 wins and 12 seasons at LSU if you and the other Miles cronies don't wanna accept that fine but it's still true.

A I'm not a Miles crony B it's not about accepting or not accepting if we are avg wins per season counting a 4 game season as the same as a 13 game season is just distorting the #s in a way that doesn't give an accurate picture of his AVERAGE season

It just occurred to me, look at it the other way, his losses.

He lost 34 games total 34 in 12 years is 2.83 34 in 11.333 years is 3 so your accounting means his avg # of losses went down

Also per your logic 2 loses last year is the same as 2007 since a season is a season is a season and he also lost 2 games that year (along with 05,06 and 10). Or put another way 2016 was tied for Miles 2nd best season, now is that accurate? Or would you note he only coached 4 games and 2-2 is different from 12-2 or 11-2?

Seven additional pages because Madking derailed another thread topic acting like Veruca Salt.

That made me laugh.

And I feel sorry for all the posters that are trying to reason with Madking.
it's a fight you can't win and a big waste of time.

That's a good point. But it is amusing to watch him make such a fool of himself.

I'll leave this last bit. Miles was 114-34 in 148 games, that's a .770 winning percentage. The CFB season is now 12 scheduled games, with a bowl that's 13 games A 10-3 season is .769 winning percentage. If you use 12 seasons for Les he avg 12.33 games, 9.5 wins and 2.83 losses that's a .770 winning percentage
114 wins over 11.33 seasons 10.06 wins 3 losses a .770 winning percentage.

Miles avg season at LSU based on a 13 game schedule was 10-3 no matter how you cut it

I dont think anybody would argue this...but it doesnt matter at this point. Miles is ancient history...and you wont win this argument with MK.

Yes it is. The guy's persistent if nothing else. No matter how crazy and bizarre his posts get, he very seldom backs down.

So did I. But then I used to have expectations from Miles every year....

Disappointment is a bitter pill for sure.

Yep I knew someone would say that I just figured it would be MK, that's why I said CFB. LSU like all D1 teams had SCHEDULED 12 games for both 2015 and 2016 but had a game cancelled due to weather in BR in 2015 and because of a hurricane and gross incompetence by the University of Florida in 2016. Game cancellations are extremely rare, I cannot recall another time LSU had a football game cancelled since I've been following the team in the early 80's. I also can't remember another major program have a game cancelled let alone 2 years in a row.

That said in Les Miles first 10 season LSU played 13 games 8 times and 14 twice so his average season, by far the norm during his tenure was 13 games and a .770 winning percentage in 13 games = 10 wins

I am not sure what you mean about FLA and the way they handled the hurricane.... sure the storm hit at a different time but if the game was at LSU and a storm was coming our way you don't think they should make arrangements to reschedule??????

Well my comment was meant as a dig at UF and Of course the game needed to be rescheduled but it was Florida that insisted all week the game would be played as scheduled, even though it was clear to anyone the game should be moved, until it was too late. Every effort should have been move the game to Sunday or Monday, almost every other game in the hurricanes path was played that weekend (a game or 2 both had the same off week iirc). if it had hit Gainesville directly then you cancel and look at rescheduling later in the year. The stuff about not having emergency personnel to work the game was also total bs, we've seen it in BR and scores of other places were they move games to different days the same weekend after disasters.

Do you feel like LSU will actually play 12 games this year?

You have three games scheduled in Baton Rouge in September, which is more prone to potential lightning strikes than most regions of the country.

Also, you have a game scheduled in Gainesville in early October this year, which is also more prone to lightning.

Lightning in South Louisiana in September isn't anything new, but the way the NCAA monitors lightning strikes in a more sensitive manner is. I think LSU will be lucky to get both the Troy or Chattanooga games in. Also looking at Troy and Chattanooga's bye weeks, they are not common with LSU's, so I expect an 11-game regular season from LSU for a third year in a row.

Of course I expect 12 games. How many times prior to 2015 did LSU have a game cancelled? We have 1 game in Florida, how many games have other Florida schools had cancelled in the recent past? It's extremely rare and frankly there was no need to cancel a game last year. It should have been moved to Sunday or maybe Monday or to BR that weekend like USCe did the year before.

ETA you also could have rescheduled Mcneese most likely but no one cared because it was a scrub game. With the Commish now having authority Im certain we won't have a situation like Florida last year.
