re: Question: How did you feel about the Les Miles hire from Ok. State?

Initially, I felt it was a very weak hire after losing a MNC coach in Saban.

He changed my mind quickly and I've never understood the heat he took. Plenty of coaches have made the exact same clock mistakes without taking as much heat.

I've actually never in my life seen someone take as much heat for WINNING a game as Les Miles has taken.

He took more heat than Dooley for the TN debacle even though Dooley's mistake cost TN the game.

The Auburn game is even more perplexing. LSU had the play called with 20 seconds to go. It was Flynn who took a month to snap the ball and get the play off. Oh and they won, yet even this year idiots bring that play up as a negative.

I love the guy. He changed my mind immediately and the way he handled 2007 and his speeches before and after the SEC Championship will stick with me forever.
