Please post the name of an available coach ( or even unavailable for that matter) who could have done this with losing half his starters to suspension or injury and a first time starting QB.

Everybody else STFU

There are other coaches that probably could've accomplished this...if you think miles is the best coach in the country just say that instead of going about it in this round about fashion.

Ten wins is great if you have a team who was favored in six games and played beyond their talent level to achieve the the additional wins.

Not altogether great if you have a team that put more talent on the field in 11 of the 12 games and never played a game where the other team had more talent.

Miles has a great record. Miles is not a great coach.

all coaches have to deal with stuff like this, it's not unique to LSU.

Do it this way: plug in any other coach in 2005 and what would have now? Better record? More NCs?

I think a few coaches wouldve done better, although Les has done great.

I'd take Harbaugh, Saban, Patterson for sure. I think any of those would've done better than Les. MAYBE some guys like Brian Kelley, Butch Jones, Greg Schiano. Those are good coaches who never had the resources Les has.

Les miles is the smartest best coach ever. LSU is actually holding miles back, without miles LSU would look like auburn every year

I can't answer hypothetical questions but I would like to see what some coaches could do with LSU talent. Hugh Freeze had a 59 man roster against LSU. I would like to see what happens in that game if the rosters are flipped. Give Les the Ole Miss roster and Freeze LSU's roster and see who wins that game? It would be interesting. What would Les do with an Ole Miss roster over a season as well?
