He directly game day coaches us out of games costing us a shot at the NC (see Bama this year). The team almost won despite his game day coaching.


This is how I feel too. He is a great recruiter but he is average at best when it comes to actual game day coaching. Sometimes it appears that he is clueless out there (doesn't know what down it is or how many time outs we have, very poor time management, etc). He is pig-headed and stubborn when it comes to making changes. Sometimes we win games because of sheer talent, even when he's done his best to coach us out of the game. The 85-20 overall record is impressive, but let's see what happens if we continue to play 2nd fiddle to Bama for the next couple of years.

Thank GOD we've got a whole yr to go before this anti Miles crowd gets going again. Look thru the 101 threads bout this topic, just this wk alone, and it's the same ranters saying the same things, over & over again. With his track record, proven & earned in the toughest division in the toughest conference in the country, we have a great coach for another 7 yrs at least. Nice to know what we have to look forward to. He sucks at winning 80% of his games? Ranters here would have had heart attacks during the Hallman, DiNardo, Archer, Stovall yrs. Odd that those names come up, as they all got to be HC at LSU after LSU ran off Charley Mac, who only won 70% of his games. A coincidence? Numerous bad coaches coming after a good HC is run off?

The same can be said about P Carroll. Who ever pegged HIM as a great X's and O's guy?
