Serious question, are you and others of the opinion that he is the worst coach in the country or something? no one shits on their team and coaches like lsu fans do.
Nope. I have never said that. I have always said that I am not sold that Miles is the great recruiter and coach some of you make him out to be. I think LSU recruits itself better than Miles. In state talent has grown up knowing LSU to be elite and that is huge in recruiting. Miles biggest flaw is he refuses to improve the weaknesses in our team. Offense is killing us. We have the talent to be better. He is too slow to correct the issue. It is also doubtful he will hire an OC and let him run the show.
Last year we lost the BCSNCG because of our inept passing game. Nothing has really improved. We are still an offense that relies too heavily on the running game and when we play teams with great front 7s we struggle.
Just look at development. Last year we blew teams out with 2 senior QBs that didn't back each other up for most of the year. Miles knew Mett would be the starter this year yet never tried to develop him during those blowouts. To me that is inexcusable. BTW we have NO QB ready if Mett gets hurt.

Legit criticism.

Spot on. We were fortunate this year that Mett stayed healthy.

Well said.

Bain chose LSU over offers from Miami, Oklahoma, Alabama and Florida.
"It's the coaching," Bain said when asked what put LSU over the top. "They are just like my coaches back at home. I had fun, and I knew they would be the right fit once I fell in love with the coaches."

Pocic is the 13th commit for LSU coach Les Miles and his coaching staff in the class of 2013.
“Just they’re the top,” Pocic said. “They win ball games. I want to play at that level. I just felt at home with the coaches. It was great.”
quote:
“I’m looking forward to earning the respect of my future teammates at LSU and to play for a coach like Les Miles, someone who has won a National Championship in the past and knows how to get his players to perform at their very best. I’m also very excited to be coached and mentored by Steve Kragthorpe. As my position coach, we have already developed a great relationship and I know that will only get stronger in the future." Jennings said.
I can probably keep going if you want.

Said this ALL season last season. JJ returning screwed us out of TWO possible NCs because of Les' love affair with him.
