quote:all i know is Miles was 10-10 in the SEC West over the last 3+ years, with elite talent. That couldn't continue.
Miles ending 5 year stretch he was fired over has more wins than any other coach's 5 year period at LSU.

“Miles was 10-10”
Why don’t we try to put that in some type of context.
From 2012-2015 LSU was 2nd in the west for overall conference wins and 4th in the SEC.
While not being what we want for LSU, trying to pretend that it was some terrible record that necessitated firing is more than a little of a reach when taken into context with what the rest of the SEC West was doing.
There is a little doubt that Miles allowed his own record for success to diminish, but this Idea that he had to go at all costs for the betterment of LSU football is simply naïve and without much understanding of what was going on within the rest of the SEC.
I had little problem with the release of miles, but the level to which we sunk for his replacement was stunningly Inappropriate. And this, anyone but Miles BS, shows a severe lack of college football commonsense .
