also, you're looking at it wrong. The circumstances in replacing Miles SHOULD NOT be a factor. In the end, you are looking for a new coach; bottom line


I'm not using this as a defense of Miles. My point is that people need to abandon this thought that any idiot will step in and at least replicate Miles' results. I'm not proposing Miles stay on board, and I said as much in my OP.

There has never been a program in history who has forced out a coach as successful as Miles and found even greater success with his replacement. That shouldn't be ignored IMO.

As fun as it is to talk about, it is irrelevant. "Forcing" out a coach doesn't mean there is this special curse where the replacement cannot be successful. Again, you are just hiring a coach; the same way you would be if your coach stunk, the same way you would be if a CFB leaves for the NFL. It's all the same. It has no bearing.


with that being said, the next coach could find more success than Miles has but it might not reflect in winning percentage. There is a much bigger picture than winning percentage.
