Really??? The fact Les didn't change his offense or see it needed help is all I need to know to answer - A&M

It's not even close.

If Miles is so good why is phone collecting dust for the second straight year of coaching hires.

I hope UT takes Les, I think he would be good for them and he deserves another shot.

Les got fired for his stubbornness. If he learned from that, he could be really dangerous again.

If not, the toss dive will rise again!

So even though the results are almost identical, the board says "this isn't even close!!"

One has multiple sec titles, a national title, a .770 win pct, and no losing seasons

One had multiple ACC titles, a national title, a.787 win pct, and one losing season


Perception, not results/ reality, is the only reason swaying people here....

The more recent national title is worth more.

With Miles you will win 10 games, and have some frustrating close losses due to low scoring offense

With Jimbo you will win 10 games, and have some frustrating blowouts to bad teams due to not showing up

You think if Tennessee hires Miles they will consistently win 10 games?

In the Sec east?

Yes, yes I do. Les will get top 5 classes just like butch did, and he will cruise to 10 wins

Let’s add Orgeron’s resume to the question and see who got the worst coach.
