I do find it funny when they act like we are making a big mistake with this, it's all because we can't beat Bama and Saban, and then and list all of Les accomplishments and all that... Impressive, no doubt. But they dont mention the fact that he's 13-10 in the SEC the last few years, so it's not just Bama. Don't talk about how we are 1-3 in bowl games the last 4 years. Or about how shitty our QB play has been, our ancient offensive philosophy, or about the fact that Les has to be hands on when or comes to the offense. Or how we are trending in the wrong direction.

The media likes Les because he's different and gives different interviews and is funny and a great guy and all that. A lot of them are friends with Les. But the "football minded" folks understand that it's just not working and it's time to move on.

He's done a lot of great things here, no doubt about that. He's also had some big issues that he's failed to resolve, failed to adapt and change, and now we're losing to teams that aren't nearly as talented as we are. It's just time. It happens.

Herbstreet still recommends that we keep Miles another year, but he did call him out before the game Sat for his 80s offensive philosophy and said the gripes with the recent SEC record, Bama losses, and QB play are legitimate. He's one of the few to recognize this publicly.

However, his final recommendation was to keep Les, and for him to hire an innovative young coordinator, and give him full control. Unfortunately, that is where he lost me. We've been through 5 guys (4 who actually were OCs during play), and there is never been an indication that Les would get out of the way. If he won't, then what is the point of yet another OC?
