when he brought in K.Steele?
An always overlooked hire when people talk about the reasons Miles was fired.
The hirings of Peveto and Steele directly resulted in Les getting fired.
The thing that held Les's teams together through the years of shitty offense was an absolutely electric and powerful special teams unit. Once Peveto was hired and special teams went to shite starting in 2014 it was the end for Les. No longer could he rely on his punting unit flipping the field or his kick coverage team pinning teams back deep.
Steele was just an awful d coordinator. The offense was actually decent and serviceable in 2015. LSU's defense gave up 19 or more points in the first 10 games in the first time in school history. That was a really poor defense that the team couldn't rely on once things got tough in November.

Most people blamed the recruiting of Chavis and Brick Haley for Kevin Steele's underwhelming defense in 2015. I'm not saying Steele was great, he's no Aranda, but Auburn is doing pretty well with him.

I still dont understand how Steele was so crappy here. His defenses at Auburn have been lightyears better. It's not like he went through some huge schematic change here when he was here. Aranda comes in year 1 and switches us to a 3-4 and we are way better than Steele's defense without even recruiting to a 3-4 defense.

Go back and look bud. LSU improved in every st category from 13-14 except kick coverage.
Oh and Joe Alleva. Les wanted Aranda the first go round. Alleva sabotaged two seasons at LSU to get rid of Les. frick him.

You're out of your mind. The 2015 was still a top 25 defense. A very modest one year decline on that side of thew ball didn't cost Miles his job. 7-8 years of the same old conservative play calling and failure to live up to the annual promises to fix it is what cost Miles his job.

No, Miles was fired because he refused to change the offense. Had nothing to do with Steele or Peveto. Maybe you were being sarcastic and I missed it.

This is stupid. Steele is an excellent coordinator. The reason our defense sucked from 2013 through 2015 is that our dline recruiting went to shite. We had some down years in Louisiana for dline. Instead of working their butts off and getting numbers on the dline, our staff took flyers on guys like Herron, Valentine, and Gilmore and stood pat. Yeah, they were highly rated by the services, but they were head cases. Gilmore turned out decent after three years, but Herron will end his career with very little in the way of contributions. With no depth on the dline no coordinator is going to look good.
I like Aranda, but he came at the right time, when Herron and Gilmore finally could stand in the two deep and a good bunch of freshman came in for depth.
