tell me what he's done to earn this title

and i mean specific acts. not just general, "omg he won the title!" i don't know if any team in the BCS era had the chips fall the way they did (which includes getting an easy opponent in the title game, not just the whole pitt-WV fiasco)

Its still too early to determine if he is a Great coach. If the right decisions are made in the off season and LSU rebounds to win multiple SEC and maybe another NC, then I think he could be considered a great coach.

Answer my question, and I'll answer yours....Do you consider Nick Saban a "great" coach?

timeout after a turnover. Botched clock management in multiple games. Losing to double digit underdogs. Flying to Dallas on the eve of the SEC title game to beg the Cotton Bowl to select us IF we lost the SEC title. Promoting unqualified coordinators.

Miami
Notre Dame
Virginia Tech
Ohio State

He's the only coach in LSU history to beat Auburn, Alabama, Florida, and Tennessee in the same season.

He's done some good things.....why shut your eyes to that?

Big names but all were very overrated the year we played them.

He's the only coach in LSU history to have ridiculous amounts of talent 4 years in a row.

What coach in the nation would have had LSU in a BCS game this year, or even say, a 9-3 record, with the QB play they had this year. NO one. Stop bitching and crying over one bad year, and look at what hes done for you. Yall will be better in the future, stop being a little bitch and get over it.

I guess you should get responses from all the idiots who organized a "march" for him last year.

Give me a reason why you would fire Miles?

And give me an example of a great coach and Miles' has probably beaten him.

I agree with this, actually. But it was impressive at the time.

Yeah but this is one season.....one, not four. Saban never...ever....beat Auburn, Florida, and Alabama in the same season.

Actually...replace Alabama with LSU...and the same could be said for him over at Bama.
