Thanks for letting a Nole visit for a few days.

Y'all were very cordial and welcoming to this guest.
Just a couple of rambling thoughts in no particular order:
Obviously, I'm happy Jimbo isn't going to LSU. Just as obviously, your fan base seems to be very divided about Miles. The greeting he got at Death Valley was an indication of just how classy tiger fans are.
My reaction when I watched the AD make his announcement: This guy looks like he's telling folks a close family member just died. I saw no joy or in his face, no glee in his voice, and no non-verbal positive statement in any manner. I saw a guy who looked like he had just been told he was fired.
I have no idea on how Miles should fix his offense. But, I will make one observation about the DC. Kevin Steele was DC for FSU in the early 2000s. Lot's of folks thought he was brought in to be Bobby's replacement. He did a good job for us. But after a coule of years he left for Alabama allegedly to be closer to his family. He stayed there a year or two and went to Clemson where he was anything but successful. Seems like he has struggled everywhere he's gone since he left FSU. I have no idea why he really lefrt FSU, but I will be shocked if he turns out to be an elite DC at LSU or anywhere else.
Will Les adapt and change his offensive philosophy? Will he go out and hire his own version of Lane Kiffin? Who are his close friends in the coaching community that he might go to for advice? (Gary Patterson? Jim Harbaugh - Les in a Michigan Man, Bob Stoops, etc.)
Once again, thanks for your hospitality.
I have two requests for you in 2016
Beat Florida! Beat Bama!

Nice post Bret. Les won't go to any of his close friends. Too damned stubborn. He has all the answers and will show us all by God that he knows what he is doing and we can like it or lump it. He said last night in the post game that the offense did not need wholesale changes. He has proven that he is bigger than the football program and LSU.

Pretty spot on, bret. I'm married to a Nole and live in Florida so any year that LSU and FSU beat the Gators is a good year for us!
Unfortunately, Miles dug in at the post game press conference about not fixing the offense. You asked who his coaching friends are? Unfortunately, they are all currently on our sidelines or have been forced to be fired by the BOS. He has ZERO self-awareness of his limitations. He is a great guy, but he definitely puts a ceiling on us. The rest of the SEC is rejoicing tonight for a reason.
Good luck!
