that since we're paying him anyway at least let him coach until we can find someone equal or better.
Ok, I knew your post was just joking around, but I thought you were saying you would prefer we never fired Miles.
I guess I just keep seeing people say they want Miles back and got confused with your post.

Miles should not have been fired. And before you go accusing me of being a Miles pumper, let me clarify things.
It WAS time- to find Miles' replacement. We were stuck at the 9-3/8-4 range, he was coasting. So you go out and find the guy you want, you line everything up. You have the shady "sign the deal while you still have Miles under contract" moment, and that way there's no backing out. And then, you tell Miles he can be fired, he can work in the AD, or he can retire. And 2 of those options will keep him part of the LSU family.
You DON'T fire Miles and then go "der, what next?". You don't fire him and get an interim unless the season is collapsing (and by that I mean multiple bad losses, not losing to Wisky and Auburn, but more like... losing to Troy and being blown out by Miss State, just as an example).
This might mean you keep Miles a year or 2 longer, but the next coach would be the one you want, and things will be climbing back up sooner. What we did means that we hired the guy we didn't want, and now we have to keep him a couple of years, and things might be a lot worse for the next guy coming in.

i think everyone can agree its was time for some new blood but not if this was going to be the replacement.
the lsu program can not sustain this type of clown show for 3 years.
gripe about his offense all you want but you didnt have to worry about dirty laundry being aired in the spotlight.
