A. LSU experiences decent success for the next few years (i.e. 9-3/8-4 type of seasons with occasional bowl wins but no SECCG appearances) with Miles as the head coach for the forseeable
future.

B. A complete failure next season. I'm talking losing record, no bowl game, national embarrassment, etc. (i.e. 5-7 record), but LSU fires Les Miles and starts over.

I'll just say that I don't think any coach can hang around here for too long w/o at least winning the SEC west occasionally.

Eventually, not winning an SEC title will catch up with you too.

Never want to see Situation B

Nothing overly terrible about a 9 win season. We should have played a little differently in some of the games but the W - L record was acceptable.

If Saban was not playing for the crystal and winning the last 2 years at AL, would we be a little more patient?

If those are the only 2 scenarios, then I would take Option B.

I chose C. That next year is better with experienced QB, new OL and better DL. with a second year DC. Hope for 10-2, but that would not satisfy 75% of the ranters.

What does "start over mean" If it really means LSU "starts over" it sounds like the scenario before Saban was here. If that's the case I would chose A

since you said "the next few years", i think your choices are flawed. i really don't think LSU will allow miles that long if he's only winning 8 or 9 games with minor bowls, esp if he loses to bama, fl and ole miss most years. also, the way the games are won and lost matter. i really think that miles will be reviewed this year and be directed to improve or else. i hope they do not re-up his contract. it happens to everyone; produce or we'll find someone who will, esp at his salary.

C. LSU wins 6+ regular season SEC games next season and wins the SECw and hopefully the SECCG. Michigan goes 5-7 and fires RR. Miles goes to Michigan. LSU hires Gary Patterson as it's next head coach.

We will take turns with Bama dominating the SEC West just like Saban did with Auburn.

Unfortunately, B is the only way LSU gets rid of Miles. So, B.

B is a bad answer for any fan to pick b/c the poster never said in "starting over" guarantees new head coach success and W's in their schedules. Look how many new coaches looked like the best hire for a decent program and ended up being fired a few years after the end of the season (Weis, Zook, etc.).

So my logical answer would be A.

B. I think Miles is making us a mediocre program. We can get someone out there that's a hell of a lot better than him
