re: For once since Saban, let’s not screw up hiring

For the talent levels Saban left him with, Miles underperformed vastly.

he only lost 6 games in the first 3 years and finished #5, #3 and #1, what realistically do you expect? I guess this is where you whine on about 2005 Tennessee as if 1 bad loss is everything and as if other coaches (including Saban) have never had bad loses

Jamarcus Russel, Dwayne Bowe, Early Doucet, Buster Davis and 3 points against Auburn? And what 10 against Florida?

First of all 2006 was not like it is now but those 2 top 10 SEC teams with great defense on the road. Do you think Meyer is a good offensive coach? He mustered only 13 vs Alabama with Tim Tebow and Aaron Hernandez.

Miles offense was not the same pre 2008 like it was after.

Should I go on about the 07 season and the two inexplicable losses?

we won the fricking national title

LSU settled with Miles.

Then name the magic mystery coach we should have hired instead? Who was available in January 2005 that would have done so much better? The only coaches that you could credibly argue would have done better had just left for the Dolphins job and taken the Florida job a month earlier. You are letting MDS get the best of you, he was flawed yes, but he did a very good job here, denying that is having impossible standards
