I don't think that's the case.

Les loved Steele. Auburn bailed him out of his poor decision.

Look at that 11' defense though! Talk about a wasted year.

I don't think Miles let him go; I think Miles knowingly hired Steele on a 1yr contract because Saban was going to fire him anyways. LSU just so happened to lose Chavis And LSU offered Steele stability/safety for 1yr; His job would be determined/evaluated based on his coaching and statistical performance. Obviously, Steele didn't cut it with our talent and once again another job opened up for safety; but this time it was a much larger security blanket being that his family has ties at Auburn. Good luck to him.

I agree that the defense was not that good. However, the word was that LSU made a counter offer in order to try to keep Steele. That would not have happened if Mikes told him to find a job.

Remember 2013 when we had a loaded roster on offense and still lost 3 games, and we always blamed the defense? still not as bad as this year.
What makes this worse is the SEC was a better conference in 2013 and there were a lot more quality quarterbacks then as opposed to now. Makes Steele's failings that much more pathetic.

Malveto at least had the excuse the team had serious lack of talent due to the 2005 class on limited scholarships and the absolute bust 2007 class they had. Or maybe it was 2006 I can't remember.
Anyways, Steele was loaded with talent this year and in several areas the defense was worse than Malveto and not far behind in others. 9 straight games of 20 points or more. Turrible. We played some absolutely shitty QBs in that period too.
Can't wait to see LSU put 40 on Auburn next year. They're going to be awful on defense.

You're right.
The problem's with the defense - not the offense or "teams".
Dumb…

It was a mutual decision and the "match his salary" BS was to pump up a higher offer by Auburn. He was leaving to join his brother regardless. He is actually a better fit with Malzahn's scheme than ours.

No way. That would mean Miles made a bad choice. He'd never admit it. Anyway, I think Steele did a pretty good job this season.

I can't say that you're without a doubt wrong, but I don't think scoring defense alone would get him fired.

Well, this year was worse than I thought. I guess we all knew Kevin Steele wasn't a great coach based on his history.

No I don't believe he was fired, but I don't think we put up much of a fight when informed about the offer from AU.
