Two changes to football staff need to be made

In Mho, at least two significant changes need to be made.
Coach Stud needs to go. In the tenth game of year, Alabama, Elliot Porter said a lack of communication was cause of poor line play, while Trai Turner said some players didn't execute. Poor communication and to a certain extent, poor execution falls on coaching. Once again, this line was touted as best ever before the season. Either he can't recruit top linemen, or he can't improve their skills through coaching. Why did CR commit to Alabama? Simple:
2009 Andre Smith OT R1
2009 Antoine Caldwell C R3
2010 Mike Johnson OG R3
2011 James Carpenter OT R1
2013 Chance Warmack OG R1
2013 DJ Fluker OT R1
As for Chavis, his scheme is getting old. Can't effectly blitz or cover TE or RB on pass routes. Also, too soft on third down.We beat his D in SEC CG with second team QB in 2001 and 2003. Good man, no doubt. Would maybe keep him one more year unless we could luck into someone like Muschamp.
But then again, what do I know. Maybe Les can give this some thought while he's having his $12,328.77 cup of coffee every morning.

I'm not knowledgeable enough to judge the performance of the coaches. Is the problem the coaches or the players? I don't know. I do know that I am really disappointed with the teams performance this year and I assume that Miles knows what the problem is and will address it. If the problem is Miles I assume that there are program supporters knowledgeable enough about football to see what the problem is and correct it.
Forgive me for digressing, but another post earlier this week posted a link to a Forbes article that said bama spends 36 mill on their football program. 50% more than anybody else with the exception of Ohio State. I suspect that extra 12 mill at bama provides recruiting and scouting networks, coaching, facilities, and athlete support that is second to none and is the reason bama is sitting on top. And that is where we want to be.

Head Coach
- does not run the program with near the discipline required to have an edge week in week out. Consistency is not there due to his coaching philosophy (family man, father figure)=no discipline
-Miles' teams (for the most part) have improved each week for the first 3-4 weeks, then injuries and better prepared teams show up on the schedule and Miles can't get his teams and team leaders mentally tough enough to persevere and maintain focus and a high level of play
-game preparation and gameday coaching=he has proven time and time again, that he doesn't have it between the ears at these critical moments to have an edge over opposing coaches; sidelines are always as confused and in disaray as ever...
-recruiting gaps; there is a reason our stars from the 2011 season made the largest mass exodus to the draft in history....no confidence in the coach...

You people need to learn that les doesnt fire coaches. Why? His biggest flaw...loyalty.
We can only hope stud and raymond are miles-fired into similar jobs at other schools. Hope ensminger is reassigned to go spend some time in the office with kragthorpe and earl lane.
Im not completely ready to give up on chief (gettin there tho) but he could always decide to spend more time with family.
Stud and ensminger need to go. Absolute dead weight in recruiting. Raymonds seat should be scalding hot. Bring in a top oline coach and a young recruiting type for tight ends.

Well you certainly don't know which year LSU beat UT in the SEC CG...that is a start. Secondly, Chavis had LSU playing the best defense that has ever been played by an LSU program in 2011.
The problem on defense is not coaching...it is personnel. Defensive line is just flat out bad and that is making a very talented back 7 look worse than they are. Our d line has been traditionally 7-8 men deep for the last 5-6 years. Now we are struggling to put 4 in there with that same level of talent and execution. When that is the case, the back end of games are a lot harder. Look at 2011 where Oregon just wanted to quit in the 3rd quarter when they were on offense. Now the LSU d line is the one that looks beat up and ready to quit that late in the game.
Stud does need to go though...he should not have been retained after being such a failure at OC and OL coach last year. I anticipate we will have a new oline coach by the beginning of spring...probably pull the trigger after NSD
