re: Coach Miles vs. Meyer and Saban

Give me a freaking break. Miles record while at LSU is of "Elite" status. Don't give me this "he won with Saban's" recruits junk. Saban is winning with Shula's recruits right now. All of his 5th yr Sr.'s, Sr.'s, and Red-shirt Jr.s are all Shula recruits. The only reason LSU fans don't like Miles is because he's not Saban. If Saban was at LSU the past 2 years with the same records nobody would be saying the program was in decline. This is really getting ridiculous.
And by the way Nebraska really tore it up after Solich was fired, they have sucked ever since. Including this year. Their division is a joke and they are going to get smoked by Texas.

I agree. Big 12 North is awful and Huskers are bad. Don't count your hatches before they chick. Much bigger upsets have happenend than if Nebraska were to beat Texass. The big question is, WHO to replace Miles ? This is the crux and vexing situation faced by the faithful. Things could get much worse as I was trying to point out by the Nebraska comparison.

8-8 in the SEC after starting 19-5 in the SEC is far from elite. Losing records to Houston Nutt (with 2 different teams at that), Urban Meyer, Nick Saban and Mark Richt doesn't scream "Elite!" to me.

So, let me get this straight. Since there are some who think firing Solich at Nebraska was the wrong move for them to make, we should then assume that we are unlikely to do better than Miles at LSU.
We are unlikely to improve upon our guy? You mean the one who routinely botches basic clock decisions, can't coach either side of the ball, whose teams can't lineup properly, who thought the clock continued to run after an interception, and whose teams usually resemble a disorganized mess. We can't do better than that guy?
I am not scared one bit of what happens if we replace Les Miles. Are you kidding?

Lets get this straight the problem with Miles is that he is a good coach not a great one but for the money that he is being paid we should have a great coach. The man has blundered since he called a timeout on a turnover against UT. He is a great recruiter though I will acknowledge that, he just makes too many bonehead mistakes to collect the paycheck he does. To ere is human I understand but the little things are what kill me, bc in my limited knowledge of football I could call a T.O. in 5 or less seconds.
Saban is a great coach and it helps that he surrounds himself with other great coaches. People forget though that while saban was here he ran a vanilla offense much like Leslie does. Sauf when the Ro Show was here. Maybe a paycut would help Leslie become the coach we all would hope him to be. Until then in my opinion he is above average at best with phenominal talent that wins games despite himself
