Coach Miles has lost 15 games in 5 and 1/4 years.

15 loses:
2005: Lost 2 games:
1 in OT following Katrina to TN.
2. Ga. Dogs Beat down in SEC Champ game after playing 12 straight games. Team looked flat and tired. Post Katrina I feel.

2006:
1.3-7 to Auburn with some questionable officiating
2.3-10 to Florida in the Swamp with 5 TO and still in the game in the 4th Qtr. Questionable call on Hester not getting a TD.

2007: 2 games in triple OT
1. 6 pts to KY
2. 2 pts to R-Kansas

2008: No Defense with Co-Coordinators
1. Bama in OT after 3 INTs by Lee
2. Ar-Kansas 21-20 after most of the team quit following the OT Bama loss. Last play of game win for Hogs.
3. Ga. Dogs after a 3 INTs and 2 returned for TD
4. Gators in the Swamp after many INTs BEAT DOWN. Worst in Miles era.
5. Ole Miss. Team had quit after the Bama loss.

2009: Can't run or pass block
1. 3-13 Gators. In the game despite no offense. Questionable no-call on offensive pass interference led to only TD for Gators.
2. 15-24 Bama questionable no call on INT. Tigers lost both starting QB and RB Scott in 3rd Qtr.
3. 23-25 Ole Miss. We know the story with clock mgt. Tigers still had a chance to win despite having been TOTALLY OUTPLAYED the entire game.

He wins ugly, but the man wins. Out of the 15 games lost 4 in OT and 2 of those in triple OT.

Never lost to ULL, UL-Monroe, UAB etc...
Coach Miles made changes after the disaster in 2008 with the defense and I am confident he will do the same after the season regarding GC.

But we need to fire Miles now, because if we wait, he might win games and we'll be "stuck with him".

the problem is no changes are occurring this year during the season. this team is special and has a chance to be really good with an average offense. most fans are frustrated by his stubbornness to make a change. it cannot be worse than what we have.

edit: my comments are referring to the passing game. obviously we have great d, special teams, and running game.

This has absolutely no bearing on the current offensive disaster.

So it is OK to continue to make messes with his hiring decisions as long as he cleans the messes up?

So, when I get home and Slackster Jr. has colored the wall with Powerman stick figurines, as long as Jr. cleans it up, I cannot discipline him?

BS.

A lot of the losses may be close, but a ton of them were directly caused by terrible coaching.

Just an example:

2. Ar-Kansas 21-20 after most of the team quit following the OT Bama loss. Last play of game win for Hogs.

The score's wrong.. but it wasn't a last play of the game win. Once again there was some terrible play calling on our final drive that started with great field position and we ended up attempting a joke of a 63 yard field goal.

I noticed you didn't break down our win/losses in the SEC since 2008. very convenient. I imagine you can take Coker's record at The U and make similar talking points.

The Miles Haters do not want to hear anything positive that the man may have done.

Here is where you are wrong. Les corrected Malveto right away. This time he waited way too long. It was as if he gave Malveto an extra year. The sad thing is we don't need a great O coordinator this year just a solid one.

I see a lot of excuse-making here.

You can speculate all you want on things. If my aunt had a package, she'd be my uncle, et. al.

He should've done this after last season. It now may be too late. Who would come her to replace GC if LM's considered to be on the hot seat?

Les Miles SEC record after Sept. is 4 wins & 8 losses for the 08 & 09 seasons...So I'd say Les doesn't win, at least conference games.
