I am considered a leading expert in my field. Have served as an expert witness against 2 of the 3 major car manufacturers in Federal Court, and won both cases.
17 yrs on the job with no issues building a company from the ground up, now producing 100's of millions annaully in revenue.

So yeah, I think I am at least as competent in my field and Les is in his.


ok, folks, we have one solid entry.
Granted, has your company ever ranked #1 versus all others in the same industry?

Don't mind me asking, what do you produce?

We are the industry leader in several of the operational areas that make up the parent. We're a diversified service provider to the auto industry, not production based.

Let me circle back just a bit though, you're point is well made with me. Les is an expert in his field and above that a good human being. Part of the reason we are where we are is Les and Joe's willingness to support Kragthorpe through his ordeal. Add in Studrawa's acceptance of additional duties (not for proportional pay) and you have a group of men that I think are doing the best they can. They work hard and give LSU fans a team that we can be proud of, especially in the light of recent issues involving people like Sandusky and Petrino.

Good enough for me.

I would like to add the bad luck of injuries and administrative accountability (punishments) as well.

YUP. I am damn good at what I do. I am not even close to hearing all the negative shite Miles hears at my job. I may not make the money he makes but thats NOT the question.

I think you should go to the Poliboard and ask this same question, except trade Miles with Obama.

I know for a fact that 2-3 on the TAF A List want him canned. I say secretly Les is only get a approval rating from about 45 percent of the fan base.

and I know for a fact that 2-3 on the TAF A List are fricking idiots. What's your point?

So, what happens when they get the hire of their desire and that coach comes in and improves the offense (for arguments sake) but has a different scheme that requires recruiting to catch up but his defense lags because Chief left?

Say LSU goes (with new coaching staff)10-2, 9-3, 10-2 without an SEC Championship to show for three years? They so sure the next unproven comoditiy will excell beyond the current winningest coach in LSU history?

And who do you think would come here after a firing like that?
