I would be all for miles getting another raise when he warns it with another championship.... The big one.


Baby steps.

I could support a raise with an SEC championship.

Loss to Ole Miss= no pay raise


don't want him gone by any means, but if he drops one bad one each year, then 4.7 (or whatever he gets) is more than enough

Best coach in the history of LSU maybe even the world. You damn right he deserves a raise.

No he doesn't. I think he is more than adequately compensated for the quality of product he has put on the field.

Yeah losing to olé miss second string last year and getting out doors blown off by our biggest competition the last 2/3 meetings and losing the 3rd definitely warrants a raise. I am somewhat of a Miles support, but he does not deserve a raise right now.

1. Auburn (12-2, 7-1 SEC; last ranking: 1): The Tigers lost a heartbreaker to Florida State in the Vizio BCS National Championship, but they did exactly what Gus Malzahn predicted: make the biggest turnaround in college football. Auburn had the nation's best running game behind Heisman Trophy finalist Tre Mason and a championship attitude that grew all season. The future looks very bright on the Plains.

2. South Carolina (11-2, 6-2 SEC; LR: 3): With a 10-point victory over Wisconsin in the Capital One Bowl, South Carolina became only the fourth team in the country to win at least 11 games in each of the past two seasons. The Gamecocks made a fun, end-of-the-year run at Atlanta but fell short with a loss to Tennessee and an equally as fun Missouri run.

3. Missouri (12-2, 7-1 SEC; LR: 4): These Tigers also had a magical 2013. After rebounding from a five-win 2012 season, Mizzou won the SEC East Division, displayed one of the conference's best, most explosive offenses and ended the season with a back-and-forth victory over Oklahoma State in the AT&T Cotton Bowl. Gary Pinkel went from the hot seat to beloved by erasing an ugly SEC debut with a stellar encore.

4. Alabama (11-2, 7-1 SEC; LR: 2): The Crimson Tide's SEC and BCS title game chances ended on a miraculous "Kick Six" by Auburn's Chris Davis in the Iron Bowl. With no national championship at stake for the first time since 2010, Alabama failed to match Oklahoma's toughness and intensity in its 45-31 Allstate Sugar Bowl loss. Despite another impressive regular season, the Tide's chance to make a case as the nation's best team ended inside the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.

5. LSU (10-3, 5-3; LR: 5): We never really knew what we were going to get from these Tigers (so many Tigers!), but after their loss to Alabama on Nov. 9, they closed the season on a tear with three straight wins. Even without starting quarterback Zach Mettenberger (ACL) for their bowl game, the Tigers grinded out a 21-14 Outback Bowl win over Iowa on the back of running back Jeremy Hill and his 216 yards and two touchdowns.

Not hating on Miles. Just pointing out the facts.

I support Miles but he is being paid very well. He shouldn't be given a raise just because other coaches are being paid more.
Any raise should be based on merit in my opinion, such as winning championships.


Win another National Championship, then we will talk...that is the way I look at it. He has been given raises in the past, that is enough...

You don't bump him every year moron.
He'll earn it!
He's well compensated.
These salaries will have to slow down at some point or the buyouts will be too much to ever change coaches.
At $7 million, what is the expectation at Bama now?

I'm a Miles supporter and I don't think short of winning the SEC that another pay raise should be considered. It's really not about "what have you done for me lately", but it's more about managing the pay scale for the head coach and his assistants unless you get into a bidding.

I believe after $4-5 million is earned, coaches should receive bonuses for levels of success rather than raises which are harder to manage over the long term. Bonus levels could be increased which makes more sense for the university and TAF financially.

There are no football coaches deserving five million a year from a college, but that's what the market is willing to pay and that's what they are getting. Does Saban deserve a pay raise to more than seven million after the turd he dropped in the Auburn game and getting creamed by a Oklahoma team that was crushed by Texas? Does Kevin Sumlin deserve a raise to five million a year after never winning the west and losing four games this season even with having one of the best college QBs ever?

Les should receive what the market pays to a coach running a program at one of the highest levels in the SEC and college football for nine years.

I cant even read the stupid arse comments of some of you people. I guess Im just amazed at how many people know knothing about sports. Which is 95% of people who claim to be sports fans. For the few of you who acually have knowledge good luck.

I might would give him a small bonus for letting Studwara go and that's about it. Hell most of us wanted Stud gone back in 2009.

I love Les, but...

A&M is paying $5M for middle of the pack finishes in the league. Ridiculous. They'll open a 100,000 seat stadium after an eight win season in 2014 and have 30,000 tickets on Groupon.

Miles is paid a boatload. If he needs to leave to get what he believes is his fair market price, then good luck and thanks for the memories.

Fiscal sanity is still ok in college football.
