I completely agree. Also, I've just always liked how Miles handles mistakes by players. Never really laying in to them (a la Saban). Miles takes them aside talks to them calmly and then gives them a pat on the back. I think this is just as effective if not more.

Apparently this makes you a pussy, and this is why Miles has lost control, according to 99% of the hardasses on here.
But really, Miles' method is extremely effective. Getting your ears screamed out can often times be counter-productive.

yeah, people tend to think "at this level" you can get away with an OL/OC hybrid role and that the players know enough by now to adjust during the game or keep good technique, etc.
That's just wrong. Even NFL players need coaching at times to remind them to focus on fundamentals, reads, etc. Us losing that sideline presence last year probably hurt in some way, especially with two very green freshman in the starting lineup last year (T.Turner, V.Alexander). Those guys seemed to regress in the last 3rd of the season. I don't think that's coincidence.

Well I can guarantee you that Copeland would not have gotten a 15 yarder last year in the first half against Bama wiping out a first down at the Bama 13 yard line if he played for a coach "a la Saban". Copeland had been warned twice by the refs before that play.
No worries, it only pushed us back to the 28 yard line, and it only took points off of the board (aborted fake field goal), and killed LSU's momentum for the first half. I don't think anyone really wanted to go to the SEC Championship game with a shot at the national title anyway.
