Im not pissed, I stopped getting that way on message boards a long way back.
Look, whatever yall say about Miles Im certain Ive heard worse from LSU fans. I had one of my idiot friends telling me yesterday that hes not gonna win another SEC title. These are the same people that wanted him gone after the second game in 05, saying he was never going to amount to anything over here. All but stopping short of wishing we lose to be proven they were right.
And not to piss you off, but the reason why people dont like him is because he plays down to the likes of you year in and out.
Ok, you sound reasonable, not the typical rantard like the others who say they are leaving this thread.
Les works for LSU, works just fine, plenty of other coaches would work for LSU, just like there are other coaches who would suck and you have the 90s LSU.
Les would be OK at Arkansas, similar to how Nutt was, not Crowe/Ford bad but not Broyles/Hotz/Hatfield/Petrino good.
There are several programs across the country where Les could go and be successful just as there are several programs where he could go and fail, Arkansas fans feel as he would fail here. It has nothing to do with him being a good coach or not.
It is all about the fit, he isn't a good fit here.

I hear you and Id prolly say the same thing if I was an Arky fan.
I think where he would be awesome for yall is that he has proven hes a top tier recruiter who can get top flight blue chippers out of the immediate recruiting area. He has had great success in east Texas, and that may change with AnM going SEC.

that's what Au said when they got rid of tubbs for chiz. fit is silly, your either a good coach or you are not.
tubbs succeeded at ole miss, Au, and he's now doing pretty good with texas tech.
jim tressel won at youngstown and ohio st.
bryan kelley cinn, notre dame
urban meyer bowling green, utah, florida, and ohio st.
saban kent st, mich st, lsu, and bama.
steve spurrier-duke, florida, u.s.c'e
miles did well and brough o.s.u. to a level they hadn't seen since jimmy johnson and is now doing well at lsu.
patrino, did well with louisville and left it in shambles and did the same with arkansas.
coaches are who they are. there isn't some special place that makes them a great coach.
dooley and chiz were never good coaches and performed that way at bigger jobs.
