Why would he?

Is JoePa considered an elite coach right now?

you should have stopped the question after you typed the subject...

There is no love for Miles on the Rant.

If someone doesn't respect Miles right now that person is either a)stupid b)a piece of shite or
c)both.

rtgr, if he starts winning some more championships I will respect him. Until then, forget it. At LSU we demand championships.

The problem is that there are a group of fans that will never be satisfied with Miles. Miles' style and public speaking are unlikely to change, so there will always be a group of people that don't like him.

If we were 12-0 like Alabama and Florida, having won like they did, there would still be people bitching. Take the Bama vs. UT game or the UF vs. MSU game as examples. These would be ammunition for the bitching.

There would be a lot less with that record, but until LSU dominates every game, there will be an anti-Miles crowd because of the way he is.

Oh - that's because we have soooooooo many in the past?

Really - in 117 years of football how many HAS LSU won?

Miles says stupid things, yes - but we could do FAR worse IMHO.

Joe Pa has been coaching for over 40 years. PLENTY of coaches have beaten him once. Miles doesn't need to "beat Joe Pa," he needs to "beat Penn State in the CapOne bowl to ensure a 10 win season."

IF we play PSU AND we win -- LSU gets respect.

If Miles > Joe Pa - based on his team winning - we are VERY lucky to have him.

Also - that would mean Miles has done what only 2 other coaches have been able to do this season and beat PSU/Joe Pa.

Those 2 - Kirk Ferentz and Jim Tressle --- I'd say Miles is in pretty good company if he's in with those guys, wouldn't you?

And - head to head Miles has beaten Tressle, less we forget.

Lil Nicky crapped out again Ferentz in the Cap One - less we forget that too.

GEAUX Tigers!!!

He is probably referring to SEC championships as well, not just national championships.

Agreed - but how many is THAT?

It's not a Big number.

Googled it.

Bama 21
Tenn 13
Georgia 12
LSU 10

This is football SEC conference championships.

The far and away leader wins the championship less than 20% of the time it appears -- but I'm not exactly sure how many seasons are included in the numbers - didn't look at the time.
