re: Miles’ near-fired experience may not change him

Saban was getting LSU established at the time. Once LSU has become established.. it's really a tremendous opportunity considering the recruiting location and lack of competing big schools around the area.

Saban walked into a program littered with future nfl players and some of the best players, at their positions, to ever wear P&G. This notion that Saban inherited a program with no talent is just utter bullshite. Saban was at lsu in a period where 3 losses won you the west. While at lsu saban never once faced a national title winning sec team. Not once. Miles has better win% while coaching during the most dominant era of sec football ever.

I'm pretty confident LSU would have had more success with Saban at LSU all the years (probably what Bama has done), but I'm not living in regret or what if.

---

Saban at lsu was not the same as saban at bama. Saban at lsu doesnt get the same scheduling breaks during the bridge scheduling as saban at bama.
Saban lost less than 3 games once at lsu.

I use to be afraid to lose Miles because of thinking be careful what you wish for. However, I believe a competent coach would have similar success here now that LSU is establishe

---

So you think just any ole coach can come in here and keep the same amount of talent? Players dont come to lsu just because its lsu. Lsu does not recruit itself. While LA has talent its mainly at the skill positions.

and a great one could really elevate LSU into being more special. I mean we've lost 4 games a season, 3 games a season, 5 at one point, etc

Please enlighten me as to which great coach is coming to a program where the best tenure in school history is considered underachieving. Lets not act like we are gonna shell out huge money either because we have never once spent huge money on known commodity
