Will Danny Etling and only 4 losses save Miles job at end of year?

I was at the game and when Danny Etling came in it literally brought life into the entire stadium. We cheered like we just scored on Alabama. It was good to see the offense rally around him. He made a lot of good throws early on. He also shows better pocket presence, poise and accuracy than Harris. No doubt in my mind that he is the right man for the job going forward. Having said that our Oline still isn't very good and D isn't playing good enough either (too many busted coverages). I predict we have a decent year considering our various problems right now. I still see 4-5 losses at end of year. Do u guys think 4 losses at end of year and better QB play from Etling will save Miles job?

I don't see him keeping his job with 4 losses
I only watched on TV but it seemed like the energy even on defense was elevated after the first scoring drive. Like the team was brought back to life.

I'm of the feeling 3 losses makes it to where we can't be sure what will be done. I think 4 shifts it over and 5 makes it pretty much a done deal.

I think 4+ and he's history regardless. But I think 3 losses with a retooled offense gets him another year.

I honestly don't think 4 losses gets Les run off. Especially if Etling shows he can be a good SEC QB. Who knows, maybe it does, though.
ETA: I'll also point out, I want Miles gone no matter what. Wanted him gone last November.

Our DB's need serious work. Seems like they picked on DJ the whole night. It's harder to tell on tv but I think he is easily our weakest cover corner. The play where he intercepted the ball it seemed like he was in no mans land and just happened to have the ball trown straight to him. I think we should give someone else a shot
Also running a 3-4 your LB's have to be able to cover some and beckwith looks lost in coverage

frick no!!!

I think he only survives 4 losses if we continue to run the offense we used in the 2nd quarter.
Based on how quickly Les shut that down and dropped the 3 and 4 WR sets after that 2nd quarter, I don't think thats a real possibility.

yeah, short of an SEC championship and a berth in the playoff, Miles ain't surviving this go 'round... sorry, to the small, but vocal minority....
Posted on 9/11/16 at 12:57 am to LSU=DBU
No, and i think he knows he is done

4 losses and les is canned. Guaranteed.

The only way Les will save his job is if he wins an SEC Championship or at least gets a berth there.
It's going to be Atlanta or a severance package for Les. That's it.
No Atlanta, he's gone.

the only way he's getting another year is if the plan all along was to wait for frank wilson to get a couple of years of head coaching experience on his resume before we brought him back as head coach.

No. As weak as the SEC is this year I'd want him gone if he loses 3 games. No excuse with this team with what we had coming back to lose 3 games. 2 losses maybe. 1 definitely comes back.

SEC Championship or bust. It's been said.
Posted on 9/11/16 at 1:23 am to LSU=DBU
Etling just managed to complete zero passes in an entire half vs. Jacksonville State. What makes you think he's capable of saving anyone's job?

The stadium and players reacted incredibly after the td. After the hopelessness of last week, you can see the change in the attitude of everyone there. There was an honest feeling that the QB change could affect the expectations of the season.
That being said, that feeling kinda went away by the end. The 2nd half was a chance to put some of the concerns away and it just didnt. The truth is we have tremendous deficiencies. Starting with the o line. If they do not gel ASAP we will lose 4 games and there will be no further reprieve for Miles. Not with the favorable schedule and returning talent.
