insinuating the idea that if Alabama was in our shoes, they would have already fired Miles.


Actually, I said he (or Saban) would be in trouble. Maybe fired, but maybe not. But definitely in trouble. Miles, on the other hand, is nowhere near in trouble, let alone being fired.

Saban 83% Bryant 82% Thomas 81% Wade 81%


All higher than Miles, none with seven years that were the same as the last seven under Miles, so all irrelevant.

quote:

Stallings 71%


The closest comparison to Miles. The winning percentage is artificially low because of eight wins and a tie forfeited in 1993. On the field, he was 70-16-1 (81%). Four SEC West titles, one SEC title and one national title, with the SECC and NC both in his third year (1992), averaged 10 wins a season. He left after seven years voluntarily, so we'll never know how long Alabama would have been satisfied with winning games but not championships. However, it was no secret that Spurrier's domination of the SEC from 1993 through 1996 was not being received well in Tuscaloosa, and Bama fans weren't crying when Stallings retired.

Miles has been our coach since 2005. All wins & losses during that time have been his responsibility. Don't give me that "last seven" nonsense. If his record would have been 4-8 his first year you'd be the first to blame Miles, not Saban.
