Ok I'll be the one to finally ask this question: what specifically do you like about Les Miles ability/style/scheme as a head coach that you'd favor over other coaches besides the fact that he won a lot of games from 2005-2007 and 2009-2011?

ETA: if you can't answer this question in detail, don't start this thread

I like the power run game, but admit that Miles needs to add a short/quick passing game to match up better against certain teams. He needs to make a move at OC to get a OC that can do just that as well as develop a quarterback for that system.

On defense, we have been hurt by early entrants and a few guys not panning out (Valentine/Bain). So we are thin at spots where we usually have depth.

Les should fill any holes with top recruits or JUCOs for next year if there is any chance to make a run at a title.

From a program continuity standpoint, I prefer Les stay and we have a transition to someone else. To me, this process puts to much at risk.

I think many posters are counting on a home run hire being lined up. I consider the possibility that one is not, and I see a potential for a prolonged decline. Compare that to the possibility that Miles rights the ship, I'll go with Miles.

While I do agree that Miles is not the best coach out there and he has his faults. But he is a proven winner and has the ability to recruit nfl talent. While I don't like his style or scheme, LSU is in the position to be great next year. We will have more returning starters next year than we have had in a long time. I think he deserves one more year. You're looking at probably more than 20 million dollars for a new coach. 15 to miles 2 to his assistance plus whatever coach you hire will have a multi million dollar buyout. Seems like a big waste of money to me.
