Good answer. So over the past 2 years Miles has lost 7 games with one more to play this year. Given that losing eats at him like you say, what major changes do you see him making to ensure it doesnt happen again? Saban lost 1 regular season game last year and a chance at a 3rd straight NC and he let his OC go. What will Miles do after losing 4? Just an honest question.

Nothing.

Junior and Senior QBs win more games than Freshmen and Sophomores.

Seeing what the offense did last year. Hope BHarris gets his head out of his arse so we can roll again. Jennings puts in the work but physically doesn't have the gift.

Did you forget what we did last year with a qb that could throw the ball?

Really tired of seeing this. Jennings was allowed to practice 20 hours a week during the season.

If he continues to put in the work during bowl practices and the offseason, it is going to manifest.

I'm talking arm strength. He is gifted enough for us to win. I should have been more clear in my statement about him.

Are you saying we should try to steal Lane Kiffin, and find a fifth year senior QB for next year?

Appreciate the civil inquiry. Don't think I mentioned replacing Miles once or wanting another coach. Just providing an answer to my own question as i was asked to do. In my opinion Miles and Alleva are Happy with winning or not winning a NC as long as we have a winning season and lives of the young men on the team are positively impacted. That is a great thing. I am not sure, however, that we need the higest paid coaching staff in CFB (before the new raises this year) to achieve this. You spend the money on coaches and infrastructure like we have then you expect NC in my opinion.

No Sir, we lost 3 games and produced 0 Championships. That is 1 game less than this year and same Championship results with a So qb and two freshman receivers.

Not sure about what is expected, but if we can get a QB, a NC isnt far behind.

Not at all. How about holding our very high priced OC accountable like Saban did for a 1 loss season after 7 losses over the last 2 years.

Had one last yearbut still no NC. And a pretty good rb and two fairly good receivers. I know the defense issues but it appears more than a competent qb is needed now. Still amazes me that the only NC Miles may ever win was with Crowton as his OC, the 180 of his philosophy

Do you know for a fact that he isn't holding his OC accountable?

By your standards we should have a new DC this year because the Defense had a down year last year. Is that the answer?

Cause a true Freshman could never win a Big 10 Championship game nor a sophomore a NC game correct? Cmon man it is done in power conferences.

Twit? Glad to see those board mods keeping things civil. Maybe i should be more pro Miles in this thread although i have said nothing about Miles in a negative light?

Why shouldnt i or any other fan be? Our main rival sure as heck does. Think they are gonna let off the gas out of sympathy?? Or do you propose we just wait Saban out and they can fall back to the pack?

Who started just 1 year. How did that 4th year qb work out for us in '11?
