And repeated his call to go ahead and fire Les.

I've been thinking about this and it's dangerous to think 9-3 is mediocre. Michigan forced 3 loss lloyd out and look what happened.

The defense is national champ calibur. The one part of the game miles had no say in.

He said

" talking heads keep saying we are comparing Les to Saban and it is not true. There isn't another Saban in college right now. But, I look back over the last 4 or 5 years and it's Top 5 recruiting, Top 5 recruiting.....I can't say 'it's the roster'

LSU has been settling for mediocrity for years and it's time for a change"

If you honestly disagree with him, you're out of touch with reality.

At this point the decision should be whether to let Les finish out the season or not.

0% chance he's in BR next year

Except it's been 3-4 regular season losses a year, and it isn't going to cut it.

LSU has the infrastructure and the recruiting hotbed to be successful

Normal year: there are 4 automatic wins.


So, we are now talking 5-3 in the ones that count.


Last year, Miss St. Had a FG kick in the air to win the game and just missed it.


Often, wins are more hard fought than they need to be.

The coaching is mediocre.

People have been saying this for years. I hoped on this train of thought last year.

People that wanted to keep him use the excuse of "who are we going to get". Seriously, like any good offensive coach, or defensive coach that let's his OC do their job, worth paying 4+ million wouldn't do a better job here? I mean literally, what does Miles do that is so tough to let go off? I'm not seeing it guys, I'm not seeing it.

Grab Fedora and try to retain Aranda (this would be deadly). Make Aranda HC and grab Kendal Briles as OC (I'm biased towards this as my 2nd option with Herman being #1).

I mean my God, the things Brennan or Scott, or Narcisse could do in a Briles type offense.
