Define Success?

2 SEC titles in 11 years? 3 Division titles in 11 years?

Auburn has more SEC west titles and SEC titles than Les in the last 8 years and more NC appearances and titles than Les.

Since Texas A&M has come into this league, despite LSU killing them, they have the same amount of hardware on their mantles.

Spurrier had 3 11 win seasons in a row and beat the same Clemson team LSU lost to in the bowl game on the road.

That is just looking at the SEC. Hell, Patterson has done more at TCU in the past few years.

Les has not won a BCS bowl since 2007 and has been to one BCS bowl since his last national title.

Again, he's a good recruiter, good man, but has let this team flounder and struggle because he refuses to make the tough decisions with his coaches.

There was literally no reason to bring Peveto back. Steele was a multi-time failure as a DC and a position coach, yet Les hired him to replace Chavis. Again, Les is not as good as someone of you like to believe, and I doubt had he taken over anything but the juggernaut LSU already was in 2005 that this team would be anything more than an annual 8-5 team on average.

There's lots of coaches who do MORE with LESS. If you compare recruiting classes with resulting success, Miles is just above average at best.

Or lets push this back 1 year to 9 and your point is no longer valid.

They are ready to fire their $5 million dollar offensive genius

Yet no SEC championships.

Like who? So far LSU has lost to a team with a higher recruiting rank over the past 4 years. Bana lost to a less talented team. So basically LSU has beat everyone they were supposed to.
