apparently you didnt see my post above...

so he kicks a player off the team for being a thug, realizing that it will probably cost the team wins, and he should also lose money from doing this

you said that, I didnt.
quote:

despite the tremendous success he brought lsu already

its debateable that he didnt "bring" anything...he just let it ride...you know the other guy brought it and built it...kinda doing the same with another team...
quote:

That would lead to a coach never kicking players off that deserve to be kicked.

I didnt say shnizzle about kicking guys off the team...

they should.

if by continuing a succesful program that was laid at his feet, then by god im in the wrong buisness.

Look at our recruiting last year, this year, next year. It takes recruiting, and lsu id doing as well or better than at any other time in their history in terms of recruiting.

didnt know we were going after the BCS of recruiting...Im fully aware its of vital importance. But for 4 Million he ought to be able to do more then just recruit...hey, if he cant handle it take a pay cut and expectations go down...simple as that.

I suppose meyer, carroll and stoops should all get paycuts as well huh after they have not championship years. lol. as far as laying at his feet, you mean that program that saban left us with his what 3-4 losses the year after his national championship. I mean that was saban's fith year, shouldn't it have been better than a loss to iowa in a bowl game? I mean miles did better with the talent than saban did. You say you get it, but you really don't get it. The recruiting could have gone to pots with miles. If anything it is better. The LSU program gave saban his start. He has 2 National Titles yes, Miles has one. However, in his 25 year coaching career, that is the only top 5 finishes he has ever had so don't go blowing saban. There are several teams (like 10-12) that are really loaded with talent. QB is always the major determinent. See oklahoma this year when their qb went down. LSU had equal talent with a lot of teams over the past 5 years....less than some, more than some in that top 10-12 area. You think we had more talent than USC? give me a break. You act as if anyone could have won a championship with the talent we had. If that is the case, and given we are still recruiting as well or better, then this non-coaching miles should be able to finish top 5 again since he has done it 60% of his career at LSU. I can sense that what we have here is one of those young pups that graduated from lsu, working in houston, and doesn't quite understand the ups and downs of college football....all you apparently know is the glorious years and you think they will all be like that. You have a rough road ahead of you son until you learn the real truth. You will at some point be begging for a 9-4 season. It's not if, but when. I've seend the highs and lows.

While Les didn't earn his $4 million, you sure do have a hard-on about the money.

That's the business--you get paid in the future for your past accomplishments (3 top 5s, one National Title).

The notion that anyone would voluntarily ask the school to cut his pay is freakin laughable. Grow up.

the "other guy" didn't coach the team to a BCS NC, Les Miles did, there is no debate
