You're right. I'll rephrase: the part about him wanting the Miles regime to succeed is absolute crap.

I agree. Carlos isn't a Tiger fan, he's a Saban fan.

Correct. Saban could have been coaching that LSU team last year and he'd be perfectly content with the results.

Wrong. And I was extremely critical of Saban in 2004, regarding his management of the Randall/Russell situation. My problem with last year's team was not the record, because it happens, but the effort and attitude of the team, and I feel that's something the coaching staff should have instilled in the team. The team just decided to phone it in during several of the losses, and by the end of the year had quit on the staff. I am not sure why you can't see that this was problematic, and if you were watching the Ole Miss game you'd know what I was talking about. I hope Miles' new coaches can bring some new attitude changes to the team. Perhaps what the players needed was some fresh faces on the sideline. We will see.

I'm fairly aware of your opinion of Saban. You're a believer. You've been posting here long enough.

What I say isn't entirely about your criticism of last year's team.

I'm not sure why you'd say that. I don't necessarily disagree with you. Like I said, my comments are about what you've posted your entire time here.

Yea. He went 12-0 the next year and was #1 for a good part of the season. I don't see Miles doing this.

---

You said 8-5 was not acceptable for a coach making big money yet Saban went 7-6 last year making more money and losing to teams he had no business losing to. Period.

What does Saban going 12-0 last year have to do with anything. That only shows how bad of a job he did the year before to go 7-6 with mostly the same players. Not to mention his team didn't finish when it counted. The LSU 2007 team that you think was in decline actually won two championship games. That is why you play the season...to win championships, not games. I guess you think what Saban accomplished in 2008 is better than what Miles accomplished in 2007. No one that has ever played or coached the game would agree with you but you are blinded by your hard-on for Saban.

And I made a post on this page basically saying the part(s) about you supporting Miles is absolute crap. Really, you've never made a post where it was clear you were on his side. The ones in this thread where you were challenged on your support are pretty easy to see through. Most of your posts regarding Miles were critical. You've never been a fan, and you basically said you prefer Saban's "style" over Miles'. It's all about "style" instead of results.
