I see what you are saying...and notwithstanding that he is positioned where he is this season....I'm gonna agree with you. I think a better example may be Fulmer toward the end.

False.

Mack Brown is the coach they think Les Miles is.

Both are good coaches, Miles wins the big games (most of the time). Richt seems to lay an egg every year but I think his time has come to win the big one.

I think Miles is more like Bobby Bowden. Will have a good team every year and the occasional great team.

Miles just won't have the longevity of BB because he took the LSU job later in life. But miles has the same kinds of teams.

I think they have a lot of similar traits. Both get lots of talented players and are "players" coaches which leads to off the field issues b/c the players think they can get away with it.

Both have shown they are terrible clock managers at the end of the half or the game.

I think Miles may be more stubborn though. Overall I would classify both of them in between good and elite coaches with Miles getting the edge right now. If Richt wins the BCS title this year though he jumps ahead of Miles.

Miles is better than some think. In 1999 if we were told if we hired him, he'd win a BCS title, play for another and win 2/3 SEC titles and have a 10 win season in 6/8 years, we'd have screamed for LSU to bury him up to his eyeballs in money.

ETA: Mack Brown, Bobby Bowden, Philip Fulmer... Etc have never even remotely had an 8 year stretch to compare to Miles. Only one man in the BCS era of college football trumps him, and he happens to owe his rise to stardom to us.

I'd like to see Les Miles and Richt in the Big Cat Drill.

Who wins?

First richt hasnt played for a bcs title yet. And he is in one of the most firtle recruiting states in the country. Atlanta alone has more people than the entire state of louisiana. his team has played a weak arse schedule the last 2 years. He is also 4-8 against UF. UGA has underachieved and one could even say richt has cost them multiple sec and bcs titles.

Did i mention richt is 4-8 aganst uf and only beat ron zook once?

Lost to a shitty UF team in 2002 that cost his team a bcs title. They went 13-1 that year. You guys would be calling for his head.
