How Will Les Miles Be Remembered Down the Line?

This is something that I've thought about a lot over the years.

We all are aware of the fact that Les is not going to be here much longer. Even if he somehow survives this year, he is in the twilight of his coaching career.

I'm also pretty convinced that one day, he'll have a statue outside Tiger Stadium and be celebrated, at least officially, as one of the greats in LSU history.

But among all of us, the common fans, which Myth of Miles will predominate 25 years from now?

Will it be the one of Lesticles, the renegade risk-taker that fielded physically imposing teams that struck fear into the hearts of opponents? The coach that had an impossibly hard act to follow, coming in after perhaps the greatest coach in college football history left our program, and yet ensured that for over 10 years, home games at Tiger Stadium remained events worthy of national attention? The guy that presided over teams that were always relevant to the CFB world, despite the fact that they ultimately lost more games than maybe they should have? And a coach that put as much talent into the NFL as anyone probably ever will?

Or will it be the one of Les the Buffoon, a guy that followed the greatest coach in CFB history and had three of his four most successful seasons using players that were recruited and developed by the previous staff, including his lone championship? A coach that made mind-numbing game management mistakes, who refused to adapt to a rapidly and dramatically changing college football landscape, and remained stubborn and prideful throughout? A coach that never developed a successful quarterback from square one, and who's teams always appeared to be lacking in the discipline and accountability that perennial championship contenders are made of?

I know one of these is going to be the more prevalent RIGHT NOW, as we're in the midst of perhaps the absolute low point of Les' tenure here. But, given the benefit of hindsight and assuming time really does heal all wounds, what Myth of Miles do you think you'll be stumping for way down the line?
