How much should a coach make? You have your panties in a wad over Miles' salary, so how much is right?
Not more than you obviously, but exactly how much?


You missed the point all togeather. Its the coaches job, he should be the professional, hes being paid like one. He needs to take the responsabilty like one. There is no excuse for T-bob to have to snap the ball to save the game, because your head coach dosnt have a clue what the hell to do.

Auburn 2010 was lost bc of coaching...the playcalling was horrible, our starting field position was around midfield the entire second half and we couldn't even get a first down...and lets not forget the 4th down at the end of the game that we burned our final timeout right before and the players still didn't know where to lineup

or because the OC decided to make substitutions with time running and no timeouts.

But im sure if you asked Miles he would say all of them.

When has Miles acted un an unprofessional manner?

If T-Bob saved the game maybe because he was taught? Isn't that coaching? Or do you believe that T-Bob had this sudden flash of divine inspiration?

That shite is tired and old. Get a new gripe. 4 top 10 finishes in 6 years. What is that worth?
Who is a perfect coach, you know the one that you negatardoes seem to think is out there?

You people are such

What's the purpose of any post? See how many people get butt hurt by a simple question.

Tennessee in '05(Though the two hurricanes get partial credit)
Auburn '06(Should have passed the ball more)
Kentucky '07 (Not Arkansas. That was due to 6 or injured players on defense)
Alabama, Arkansas '08(Run the damn ball more coach)
Ole Miss in '09 (obvious)
Penn State Jan. '10(Should have revised the game plane for the sloppy field)
Arkansas in '10 (Defensive schemes sucked as well as Hatcher should have been benched after his first bad play)
Eight questionable games in my book which is probably way below average for most SEC coaches during that span. Right, UGA fans? And I'd say about 25 victories boiled down to superior coaching and schemes, the rest to superior talent. All in all Les has done a great job in my book. This is the SEC after all. Those teams playing in the ACC or Big Least would probably have been around 72-7.

I think a better question would be, "How many of Les' 62 wins were due to coaching?"

Well, if you count recruiting a competent QB as part of the head coach's responsibilities, then very few of the losses are not squarely on the shoulders of Miles.


and if you're honest you know that having to remove a jr. Heisman caliber qb from your roster pretty much explains why the qb situation became such a cluster.
