It may be time to move on but Les Miles was the head coach during an incredible era for LSU football. Can we get one more speedy thread on everything he accomplished? I know nothing is official but a big thank you to Les for everything you did for us as fans and for our university. I have nothing but respect for Les as a person and coach. He maintained a great program for a long time and will be remembered by me well.

Thanks for giving me four incredible years at LSU from 2009-2013. They were incredible and I will never forget them.

Edit: the more I think about this the sadder I get. I love Les. I love his quirks, his personality, and his sense of humor. It will be sad for him to be gone.

Thank you Les Miles
















Favorite moment: 2007 against Florida. Was absolutely amazing and was the day Baton Rouge was his.

I hate to see it end this way.

Absolutely. Hate it.

I choose to love him as the great man he was, rather than lament the coach he wasn't.

He is the best coach in LSU history.

He should stay right where he is.

All these people talking about him leaving are crazy. Realize what we have, again he's the best coach in LSU history.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I don't know if anyone could have taken that job in 2005 and done what he has done. Most would have been fired after 3 seasons.

Think about what he stepped into:
1. The loss of the coach that put us on the map. Who was well loved by the fans and in the eyes of many, couldn't be replaced.
2. Took over in the wake of Katrina. The school was turned into a make shift medical triage unit. and he kept the team and fans together.
3. Had to play his first game, a home game, on the road due to #2. Won it in dramatic fashion.


They say you never want to be the man who replaces a legend. Well he did, and he did a damn strong job of it.

I will always appreciate what Les did for this university. Not only the stuff I already mentioned, but lets not forget he passed on his dream job twice because he loved LSU.
