Some very revealing quotes from Chavis on Les'

quote:

"Nobody panicked. There wasn't any panic around here," said LSU defensive coordinator John Chavis, whose defense has allowed just three touchdowns and three field goals over its opponents' past 37 possessions. "We just went back to work, corrected the things we needed to correct and made sure everybody was on the same page.


quote:

"Coach Miles does that as well as anybody, making sure everybody is pulling in the same direction, and I'm not just talking about the players. I'm talking about the coaches. I'm talking about everybody. He has a conviction about this program that doesn't waver, and that's whether you get beat like we did [against Auburn] or win a championship.


quote:

"It truly is a family here, and I can't imagine ever wanting to coach anywhere that it's not that way."


He may have underachieved at LSU, but something tells me we will miss him when he does retire.

You sir, are a dick. I was only conceding that his tenure at LSU have at times made him a polarizing figure. I personally think he is the best coach for LSU. Here, have your stupid downvote back moron.

Repeatedly. They'll all be toothless and on stretchers when we're done.

Yup

Only part about this that would be different for the gumps is the stretchers.

This is all anyone will see here. Shouldn't have written it. It's stupid and moronic. Delete it.

You should edit the OP, then, because you will continue to get this reaction.

Let's let the season play out before making that call. LSU still likely loses 4 games this year. (Bama and Arkansas)

Underachieved? What's your definition of achieved?

In terms of recruiting and running a top notch program who consistently fields a competitive team he has overachieved. In terms of squandering potential he has grossly underachived. Have an upvote.

If you don't have a semblance of perspective or understanding of how college football works, of course he's underachieved.

I also continue to get the opposite reaction, as you can see. Relax, my post was not a slight in anyway. But to not acknowledge he evokes contrasting emotions from Tiger fans, despite his huge success, is to have cognitive dissonance.

Yours' was a left-handed compliment, my friend, and needs to be rescinded. If you don't humble yourself and properly communicate (edit your post) your true intent, then everyone will understand what you actually meant to say (subliminal denigration of Miles).

Polarizing =/= underachiever

You could have just said "In his tenure at LSU he's been on of the more polarizing coaches in the nation".

Completely different IMO
