Who believes next year is Miles' last?

I believe next year will be his last. With that said, the program would be much better off if Miles hits a home run with his third DC decision and he is successful for many years to come.

However, those of us with eyesight and a TV or season tickets have to be concerned with what we saw on the field and on the sidelines this year. Poor coaching = lack of trust = lack of discipline = no leadership. Oklahoma State had to dismiss "several" (wiki said it was 11) players in the first year after Miles left for grades and behavior.

As many posters have rightfully pointed out, his prior accomplishments have earned him a mulligan. But the flip side of that coin is that he also earned a 3-5 SEC record this year with a talent laden team that gave up on him.

The one thing that gives me hope - too much money riding on the success of the program and we have a new blood in the administration. If Miles hasn't had the come to Jesus ultimatum from influential supporters of the program and the administration, it needs to happen.

Miles can recruit and if he can set aside his blind loyalty and surround himself with coaches who are widely seen as the top quartile (Pelini and Crowton) for their specialty, he will be the Mack Brown of the SEC. He is not going to beat you with x's and o's nor will you see him develop young coaches into future HCs, but he will keep the program very competitive and consistent for a long time.
