So care to tell me how much Les is getting paid now and how that relates to other coaches in college football?

I am happy with Les. I'm not happy with giving him a blank check, especially since he's been proven to go full retard here before. (cotards, 08, 09 ole miss, 10 arkansas, etc)

And we lost to bama 21-0, and couldn't beat them in Death valley on a saturday night. And we're going to the peach bowl. Sure, give the guy a blank check. He should give his agent a kiss on the mouth, if he was a girl.


Every single coach in the country has a handful of mistakes. Bama fans were crucifying Saban after their loss this year. You pay a top 5 coach top 5 money. Case closed. It not a blank check. Its market value.

But they didn't. COULDA WOULD SHOULDA. I guess we're happy with moral victories. We came SO CLOSE to beating bama. Is that what make you people happy now?

No. I dislike the way he is making a top 5 salary


When you're a consistently top 5 coach, this tends to happen. Why aren't you complaining about Kirk Ferentz's contract? That one seems horribly unfair to the coaches who accomplish more than he does

This year, Bama ended up being the preeminent program in the West.

Last year, it was Bama again because of the NCG result.

In 2010, Auburn was the preeminent program in the SEC West.

In 2009, Alabama.

In 2008, Alabama.

Looking at that data, I can't see a reason that Miles is entitled to a raise. It's been half a decade since we were the best program in our division of the conference.
Dem's da facts!
How anyone who is able to cancel their individual bias can argue against this is beyond me. Saban has nothing to do with my feelings.
The battle cry of the Rant has become "next year we'll be unstoppable."

he's already making top 5 money. do you think he deserves more $ than Saban or Urban Meyer who both have more NCs than him and who both have had a better 2012 season than him?

So it was Les's fault we lost to Bama? You are a complete fricking idiot, Get off break and back on your fry machine, if you burn mine Im gonna be pissed.

Your the one putting saban on a fricking pedestal. They lost to AtM at home, we beat them on the road.

Guess you were one that thought bama could beat an NFL team too huh? fricking tool.

Either that or "we outplayed bama and should've won" or "we had to go through injuries" as if other teams didn't.
