doubt it will change minds that are closed anyhow but................
LSU, under les miles, is nationally respected and recognized as an elite program.
PROOF: the respect we receive by national "experts", the critisism we receive by the same guys when we are doing poorly (we are NATIONAL news). the exuberance shown when elite teams beat us. we validated florida and bama's image of themselves. when our players screw up, it hits national news. not just tm7. hell, other programs have guys in jail and maybe it makes the inside page of a local sports section.
i could go on and on. all i can prove is that LSU is more recognized currently as an elite program than ANYTIME in our history since Paul Deitzle (sp) teams of the late '50s. opposing teams and coaches know they have to go thru us to win the SEC.

So are you going to listen to the experts or not? Most of the problems fans have with miles is on offense.....pretty much what all the experts say also.

You seem to be perfectly satisfied with second place, but the second-place finisher is only first among all the others who didn't finish in first place, either.

If LSU played on 1/9 like they played Saturday night things would be different.
When we
-stop losing in goofy ways like Ole Miss 2009 & Tenn 2010
-put away teams like Towson and Western Kentucky in the first half so our back ups can get more PT
-have an offense with a pulse of creativity and not 3 yards and a cloud of dust
-when players like Trai Turner are recognized as a better player and get more PT on merit and not because of necessity (injury, dismissals)
I'll get on board.
When the Miles goes for it on 4th and 12 and gets stuffed and the camera pans to him he's got his finger in his ear. That's way most of the skeptical fans see him.
But then again, all this post is is my current opinion of him. Kinda like your opinion, it really doesn't matter.

The crux of the matter is that Miles gets it right for a majority of the plays of a game (Out of 85 plays Saturday night, he missed on only 7 :
The 54 yard FG, the fake FG, the 4th and 1 Wildcat run by Ware, and probably all 4 plays on that last drive (run,run,run, missed FG).
The problem is, the ones he misses on are the most highly visible and controversial.
In my opinion, I don't give a good goat plop about anything that happened before that last drive.
What I """"AM"""" sick about, is THIS:
We had a 1st and 10 from the Bama 32 with 2 minutes left.
Do SOMETHING to get the (*^&&%^%#$#$@#%@%^(*&&R%$#@#@~!#!~%#%$##$@!#%~ first down !!!!!
One first down, we have three kneel-downs, and we are #3 or 4 in the country with a great shot at Miami..........

LSU football under Miles is at a level LSU football has never before known for a 7+ year period of time.
National rankings of #5, #3, #1, #17, #8, #2, and currently BCS#7 in a 7+ yr period of time is rarefied air that this football program or any major LSU sport has NEVER breathed before.
When the best one can offer as criticism is, "we can/should do better" without a statement to the fact that we are better than ever before and one of the most elite college football programs in the game today for the most part of the past 7+ yrs, then said criticism is little more than cover for the college football mentally challenged gang to push an agenda against a HC for their own pity reasons. imo
To say Miles makes mistakes or he has this short coming or that one is both news to know one and is not being able to see the forest for the trees cause above all that is the fact LSU football is more successful than ever before and Top 5 in the nation for success during Miles career.
