Who is pushing this narrative that Les Miles was ultimately fired due to his record? Do people actually believe this.

You can say it was because of the problems on offense, but ultimately, those problems adversely affected the record. So you can look at the symptom or the effect of the symptom, either would be technically correct.

It was part of the result of the team under performing because of the offense. Not to mention that Miles lied to Aleva.

Common sense.

It wouldn't have mattered if he was running a different offense but still lost the same number of games over the last few years.

Or are you under the impression losing "pretty" actually matters? If the answer is yes I'm going to assume you wanted to hire Kingsbury.

This is dishonest revisionist history.

All we've heard since 07 is that Miles got gunshy and started meddling after the Lee disaster. The offense has been a problem ever since with the exception of 2013.

It wasn't until we stopped winning 10 a year in 2014 that things went sour for Les and he was run out.


Don't try to move the goalposts now.

If O doesn't win 10, regular season games he is on the hot seat.

If he wins 8 regular season, this is a failure and move on time.

Think about it, there is no excuse for not starting 5-0 against this schedule. To finish 8-4 that means we go 3-4 down the stretch against three ranked teams max. That is a fricking failure for a new coach brought in for continuity.

8-4 this year, then lose our starting QB, Heisman caliber RB, and half our OL and we're "rebuilding" again in 2018 and the excuses just keep coming.

frick that shite. 9-3 depends on how the season and games play out, but 8-4 is time to bring in a real AD to conduct a real search for our next coach.
