the hiring of Steele


You can't put the blame on Miles for Steele.Thats 100% on Alleva and/or Chavis. The timing of Chavis leaving screwed any chance Les had of getting a top notch DC.

Then do your job as a head coach. He shouldn't need assistants to bail his arse out all the time. They have plenty of HCs across America who put their hands into their specialty and do a great job with it. What's Miles specialty? Eating grass on the sideline or fricking the offense up for at least 80% of his tenure here?

He never got respect from the media because anyone with eyes could see the sloppy prospects he put out on the field. It was talent being squandered on an undisciplined team year after year and he did just enough to keep going in the program.

If he's not responsible for these problems then WHAT THE HELL DOES HE DO FOR BEING ONE OF THE HIGHEST PAID COACHES IN NCAA? It doesn't matter how you slice it he's responsible for the problems in the program right now. He's the HC so he's either not very good at what he does or he's a figurehead who doesn't deserve to be paid what he is anyway. End of story.

I think the most telling thing about our program under Miles is to look at our SEC record since 2011

2011 8-0
2012 6-2
2013 5-3
2014 4-4
2014 4-3 (one game left)

That is a steady decline, we were supposed to be better this year, if we are 4-4 in the SEC unranked than I don't see how we can say that Miles is leading this program in the correct direction. Especially for a program who brings in top 10 class EVERY Year. Considering how we got blown out 3 straight weeks is very telling of where this program is going. I still have hope in next year, but it's not the same as I had earlier in the season. If we can find a way to keep this class in tact and bring in a better xs and os coach, we could win it all next year.
