It would actually be terrible if he were to leave. And we only have 15 commits, think about that shape up. I always joke about CLM getting fired, but if it happened or he went for another job such as Michigan, that could be really damaging

this.

lots of folks diss miles during the season, esp after a loss. part of the fanbase demand results that rival saban's and think that it would be easy to fire miles and hire a coach that will produce saban like results. hell, they think those kind of coaches grow on trees. they transpose a certain success of one coach IN THE CURRENT YEAR and assume he would do even better at LSU.

I think most of these posters are teen agers or close to it and have no clue how the real world works. and most of these same posters seem to only care about the offense; as long as we gain a lot of yards and can score quickly they would be happy. even if we suck on D. it is POSSIBLE that we could get a coach that is better than Miles but it is much more likely that we get a coach that is not as good, even one that fails.

I don't care if you are USC, Notre Dame, Alabama, Florida, Michigan, Penn State, etc there is no magic formula that will guarantee an uber successful HC.

if Miles leaves for his alma matar I will be sad for LSU but happy for him. I really, really, really hope he stays and becomes the most successful coach in LSU history.

so many people, esp in a certain age group say that Saban set the bar at LSU, but in reality it is Les Miles that has set this bar. Saban had one really good year, it's just that we had had so many mediocre or bad years before he arrived so he gets the "savior" tag. his success at bama is what a lot of people judge miles by; not his success at LSU.
