Miles can consistently win, like Cholly Mac did at LSU.
With all due respect to Mac, he won bout 69% of his games and not almost 80%, he never had a 3 year period of NR in the Top 5, and didn't win a NC.
With all due respect to Nick, "The Bear" won 6 NC, 323 games, and 14 SEC titles.
I have no ill feeling toward Nick, but to this point in time...he can barely lift the Bear's coaching jock. imo

You brought up Bear's lifetime achievement and mentioned what Saban has only done to this point. Same with Cholly Mac & Miles.
Saban has won two national championships at two different schools and is the first coach who has made that achievemt. So far and Miles has won one. Bear, while at Kentucky made them a program then went to A&M and took over a loser and had them at the top very quickly then did the same at Bama.
Sorry that you can't see the big picture of the potential future for Saban and Miles or the similarities.
If you listen to those that played under Bear Bryant, they never talk about "liking" him but they do all talk about fearing and respecting him. Saban's players are doing the same damn thing.

Who here really thinks that if Les had went to Bama 3 yrs ago, they would have a MNC and nearly the same record as they do?
Miles is a decent coach but he in no way is looked at as being on the level of Saban. Saban is probably 1 of the best, if not the best, coach in CFB currently.
Can Saban be beat? Yes. Can he at times get out-coached? Yes. But it is rare and when it occurs, it's something that isn't expected. He is too detail oriented.
Now look at Miles. This guy can be out-coached on just about any Saturday, and when it happens, it's no suprise.
When Saban was here, we had a strong running game and a dominant defense. Now he is at Bama and they are winning with the same strategy. Miles has had ultra success here so then why does the National Media disrespect him so much? Perhaps because the things that they see are mind-boggling from Miles.
IMHO, if Miles stopped being so stubborn and learned from his mistakes, he could be a VERY good coach, not great. He just doesn't know when to go in a different direction. When he makes mistakes, we must endure them for the ENTIRE season. Miles has made me go from feeling bad for JJ to wishing that he would just twist an ankle already. I wanted to just turn the game off when I initially watched JJ trot out there to start.
