The problem is that for every 1 saban that you come across, you will have to work through 3 dinardos.

Top tier coaches are not easy to find. A lot of guys who seem promising don't turn out to be as advertised. Keep in mind Rich Rod was very successful at W.V. which is not the easiest place to win at....

This is nonsense. Can you point to one thing Miles does that another coach couldn't? We live in Louisiana and sit right next door to Texas. Miss St wins 8-9 games a year in the same division with average talent at best. Arkansas has developed a hard nosed team with half the talent we possess. Miles has currently pulled in the #6, #2, #5, and #3 classes over the past 4 years, and we look like hot garbage against an FCS school, some Big 10 average body, and mediocre vs the worst team in our division.

Two of our 3 losses last year were by 2 or more TDs to guys with not even half the football talent or SEC head coaching experience as Miles. Five of our eight losses in 2014 and 2015 were by 2 or more TDs.

Over the past 4 years Miles is barely over .500 vs SEC teams and all teams that have at least a .500 or better record during the year he played them.

There are plenty who could do just as well as Miles with less talent and a more enjoyable team. Several would do much better if they had the talent that Miles gets.
