Set records, you are so right. The record for 3rd down conversions. Everyone knew we had to throw on 3rd and 5 to 8 yards and they Still couldn't stop it. The reason we had so many 3rd and longs was because Miles wanted to run on 1st and 2nd down.

Running the ball on 1st and 2nd down when you have the best college WR duo in the last half century equals a coach not using his talent.

There is a reason College football has had over 20 or 30 coaching changes (my best estimate) over the last 2 years and Miles hasn't gotten 1 offer. Miles was the worst choice Skip could have made.

Not sure about that... Its funny while his offense was mostly boring he still won A TON of games even tough the opponents KNEW what was coming...........

I bet Vandy or Kentucky would have loved to have that kind of success,,,,,,, Why don't you go root for them.........

This is a very good point. And miles continuing the same predictable mindset for several more years with lesser qbs and WRs was his downfall.
He was never able to adjust his game plan to best fit his personnel but usually had good enough talent to overcome that. Obj and Jarvis would be great in any system, but would have been unstoppable in a modern offense.

miles took over a Oklahoma State program with 1 winning season from 1988-2001 and had them winning 8,9,7 games. they went from having 50-60 ranked recruiting classes to having top 25 classes

while he was an elite coach, it was by no means the worst hire Skip couldve made

How can there be so much wrong in 1 post?

Sure wish we ran the ball more vs Ole Miss, the only game where the offense really let us down (and still battle backed). That offense was aggressive

Whether this has anything to do with subject could be debated, but this statement stands alone as a testament to his standing in the sport.
