Ok, since nobody's playing. Bobby Johnson and Steve Spurrier are the only two current SEC coaches Les has a winning record against.

All of the smoke Laval point are funny. Mile's had one sub par year with a FRESHMAN QB MORONS. Now i like all of you am longing for a bone crushing defense. But like i said on other thread its one game people Mile has replace last years horrible coordinators(poor desision on his part) with one of the most respect DC in college today! And some are throwing them under the bus already!!! All i am sying is let give them a chance! Last year was bad but JL cost us the bama game and very possibly the UGA game(even thought the d was horrible) So my question would all of u being saying the sky is falling if we go 10-3 or 9-4 last year. I know alot off people say JJ should have played last year but facts are he did not know the playbook well enough. So all i am saying is all u the sky is falling guys GIVE me a fricking Break! I don't recall but didn't florida go 8-5 with a bad D after ther national title run and they had baby Jesus as there QB. Oh wait but they oppen up seasons with 1aa schools every year. If we would have played a 1aa school i can assure u it would have been a blow out. Look as last year we blew out App st and see how the year went.

Your arguement sounds much like mine when I was still defending Dinardo midway through his last season.


How did we ever fire Dinardo after he won four bowl games in a row? including a national championship?

Defending Dinardo's SEC and national championship must have sounded pretty funny back then.

MrLSU2001. Is this post because you are trying to say Les Miles is better than Saban


No not at all Nick Saban was a great Coach and He help reserect our program. My point is to Say that Les Mile is like Barry Switzer is a lie. He has had one sub par year with a freshman QB. Yes i thought the Coordinators were horrible. But the facts are mile is Still pullinig down top 5 recruiting Classes and We have only played one game. And i agree we need to open up the offense more but I believe they are tring to protect JJ and build his confence before The heart of the scedule. B/c if we are to compete with Florida, Bama, Ole miss he will not just need to manage games but win games. I think it was a good start the way they used JJ this week.

The bottom line is that Miles is a class act and is committed to LSU, unlike the "Almighty Saban" who was and is only committed to himself. The idiots who bash Miles and want a replacement after one let down season must be under age
30 and don't have a clue that the last ten years have been the glory years. I have been reading these posts since the rant was created and this is my first post. I am quite simply sick and tired of the lame brains bashing a great man and very good football coach. Be careful what you as for because you might just get it! ala running Coach Charlie Mack out of dodge and then putting up with 30 years of mediocracy praying that we might end up the season in the top 25 and God forbid the top 10. Go ahead and bash away if you must O ye prophets of doom while the REAL FANS support their team and their coach.

do u remember the games that LSU played poorly when Saban was here? Georgia (in Georgia, we were completely blown out, Troy, etc, etc, plenty of examples, that is just the way it goes with 18 to 22 year olds... Get a GRIP, the stats speak for themselves.

Because 3 that he did have a winning record against were replaced by new head coaches.

He's 1-1 vs. Saban.

to me Miles was a coach at Okie St. that never seriously challenged Stoops, might pull the occassional upset, but he came to LSU and inherited much more talent than he ever dreamed of at Okie St. now that he has been here for awhile and won a NC, which by the way LSU created who he is today. getting back to what I was about to say, now that he has been here awhile, his coaching is kinda reverting back to his OSU days, just try to win and contend.

I like Coach Miles. I want a defense that strikes fear in the hearts of our victims. I am worried about this weekend when I look at how productive Vandy was this Saturday. I think we will score a lot of points but I do not like this type of game and prefer the Bandits of old. But I am and will always be a Tiger Fan!

I would love to see the negatigers comments if we had someone like "Big Game" Stoops as our head coach, or Pete "Blow It Again" Carroll, or Mr. "One Conference Championship" Brown or "Can't Win the BCS Against an SEC Team" Tressel, or "I Can't Win Anywhere But Florida" Spurrier. Well, I guess that leaves only Meyer and Saban (who shows he has trouble winning at times too (remember Utah, Iowa, UAB, ULM, Arkansas, Auburn)?

Whatever way you slice it, Miles is the winningest coach in LSU history.

I'll support LSU all my days, but I won't be a homer.

He has steadily made mistake after mistake. For what he gets paid, that has to be realized. He may be this "class act" you all claim.... His team showboats after a routine tackle after the opposition gains 40 yrds. The Personal Fouls during the Arky game... The perpetual issue with false starts, penalties..

The teams we field cannot smell blood in the water and attack. Our teams have played tight and timid. Soft Zone in the SEC does NOT work anymore.

Why are we making moves in the opposite direction of other SEC teams on the rise?

Here's a FACT. Upon Miles leaving Okie State that school has absolutely blown up and is feared on a national scale.

I hate that our opposition is no longer scared or intimidated to match up against us.


I never once talked negatively about Miles before he coached a game, but it's time to quit making excuses. It's NOT necessary for us to fall to mediocracy cuz we had our decade...

Miles is a good coach(the nation recognized that) Chavis is a good coach(the nation recognizes that)

But when does LSU become elite enough to demand "GREAT" coaches?

For the record I imagine our Defense will eventually sort down to one of the top 40 in the nation. But why oh fricken why are we simply ok with that? Why didn't we go after a great rising star in the coaching ranks that could bring us to the top 5 in defense.

And before Miles had arrived at OSU, no body feared OSU or cared. He had the best record at OSU in over 30 years. OSU started moving in the right direction while he was there, not after.

What elite coach would you like: Stoops who can't win a BCS game and loses to the likes of BYU, Boise State and West Virginia? Saban who loses embarrassingly to Utah, not to mention several laying several other eggs along the way? Pete Carroll who manages to blow open invitations to the BCS championships with losses to Stanford, UCLA, Cal and Oregon State? (That's four BCS championships he missed out on because he couldn't get a win again mediocre teams).

How about Mack Brown. How is it that at Texas, one of the top 2 or 3 best recruiting grounds in the US, he consistently falls short with only one conference championship and one NC. How is that he loses consistently to OU who depends on Texas players to beat him?

Is Miles perfect? No. But gee whiz.
