Personally, I am mutual towards Miles..can someone give me a reasonable argument as to why he is so hated?

54-13 (.805) winning %
SEC & National Championship

SABAN
48-16 (.75) winning %
2 SEC Titles and 1 Nat'l championship

Short memories are a reality. 2008 and 2000 were so painful to watch.

What did Saban walk into when he arrived?

What did Miles walk into when he arrived?

How has Saban done the past few seasons?

How has Miles done the past few seasons?

Do you really not understand the difference between where the level the program was at when Saban got here vs when Miles started? Saban built the program.

Do we actually need to explain any of this?

Some are trolls.

Some are fans of other teams masquerading.

Some still pine away for Saban.

Some never liked him, even when he won he NC.

Some legitimately think his record is not good enough and we should win more championships.

I agree Saban is a much better coach, but I also believe that our expectations are so high now that anything short of an SEC title is a complete failure.

Some accept mediocrity

Some have their heads in the sand

He's a CEO coach, not an X's and O's guy. So he'll only be as successful as his coordinators. Right now, he has a great defensive coordinator and a terrible offensive coordinator. But at the end of the day, the responsibility falls on him to fix the problem.

some need to be reminded that Saban is not comming back. I like Miles and what he is doing at LSU. We are a young team and I expect some good years out of the Tigers. Watch how many teams with freshman qb's end up with 3 or more losses like LSU did the last 2 years.

Love the man.

Got a man crush on him.

Hate to see LSU struggle. That is why outside of LA we are not looked upon favorably We should be ranked at least 6 or 7 modestly. But for our well published struggles on offence, we are an elete team.
