He has done a good job at LSU, but that would not scare me at all because only Bama gets the type of talent that we get consistently. And Miles needs elite talent for his game plans to work.

Please go to another SEC school. Where he will get beat by Saban, Belima and Freeze then who ever LSU would hire. So then he would be left with A&M or Miss St. He would bomb at those schools quick with their lack of talent.


Well he's old now. 5 years ago any one would have taken him.

don't kid yourself, most schools in the country would jizz all over themselves at the opportunity to hire a coach that could keep their program at the level he has kept ours at for more than a decade.



Come on, now.

The rest of the country knows what Miles is, just like we do. Great recruiter at a school in a state that's a hotbed of talent with no other legit in-state competition, but a poor coach outside of that.

Yes they would but he couldn't have done at other schools what he has done here. He won't get the talent he gets at LSU. He's just not a great coach. He lucked into this situation.


This is such BS that keeps getting regurgitated on these boards. If he's such a terrible coach and we win in spite of him, why weren't Archer, Hallman, Dinardo, and Stovall able to do it? Why wasn't Saban able to have more than one season with less than 3 losses?

I'm not a Miles apologist and I think it may be time for him to move on, more because I think he's getting complacent than anything. But to claim he's had 11 years of "luck" is insulting.

Agree. There is no such thing as consistent luck. At some point you just have to accept that Miles does know the game of football. He's not the best, but he he's good at what he does. Oh and I do think it's time for a change because I think he is burnt out and too stubborn.

That time has long since passed.

He is LSU, retired or ESPN/SEC network.

He is Phil Fulmer and Mack Brown. He won a title. He will be respected for that for life. He will always be appreciated. But he isn't improving anymore and people want to make sure the program isn't in decline. He is at retirement age and nobody wants to hire a 60+ guy for a big program anymore. He may join another program but it won't be as head coach.

He's at his last stop.

That's a reflection of his age more than his viability as a head coach.

Then why has he never ever been mentioned for an opening that wasn't his alma mater and more importantly manufactured interest? No one has ever truly tried to hire him from us in either CFB or the NFL and that speaks volumes.
Seriously? LSU is one of the top jobs in the country. What other schools would even think they had a chance of getting him to leave besides Michigan?
