re: Les Miles revisited thru 2013 and projection for 2014

Ponder this thought. Except for 2011, we are on the same level or lower than Ole Miss in head to head games
Isn't our highly paid coach break even against Ole Miss over the last 6 years at 3 - 3 ??
2008, 2009 and 2013 we are ranked and lose to OM- we were fortunate to win last year too.
Miles just laid a pile of manure losing to that POS team with their back up players and a freshman walk on. We were ranked at 6 and should have beaten them by double figures. Team was totally unprepared to play that game.
I would hardly consider OM a quality team but Miles seems to have us playing down to below or at their level over a 6 year period.
Do we have the "want" to be no better than Ole Miss despite spending millions more, having greater facilities, higher paid coaches?
Not the type of results we should receive or expect with all the support, etc behind this program.
OM is not AL, GA or even AU.
Same with his struggles with Arkansas. He blew a game in the 2007 season having to win to stay on top of the BCS standings. Lucked into that Ohio State game.
Miles is not horrible but way way behind Saban when it comes to program development and long term success. Saban is picking and choosing who he wants and from where he gets his players. We are hoping to finish strong enough in recruiting to maybe get closer to AL.
Next year will be more struggle and probably nothing short of the QB debacle we have seen since Flynn graduated (except this season with Mett).
Just the way it is. And nothing is going to change unless the program officially tanks it. As long as he wins 7 (a 6 win season gets him a pass next year) games a year, he gets the big dollars.
