Miles would’ve never went 9-3 with this young team it would’ve been uglier because of his stubbornness and elementary play calling

Didn't read, but I cannot describe how happy it makes me to realize that everyone on hear can see that Ed is nothing but a big hairy twat. I thought that no matter how bad things got, "y'all" would look past his impending 8-4, 7-5, declining records and reach satisfaction. Perhaps even offer him a new buyout clause bigger than the last to reinforce the destruction of everything that Les created with the advent of the hiring of Ed Orgeron. I see bright days ahead because I know that next year, there is a statistically high probably that 0' is fired if we keep the fire boiling under Allev'0s arse once it is clear that O has failed to hit the current 9 win expectations ceiling. Or will you baws come up with a new excuse to justify a shitty season, like the toughest schedule in LSU history?

Miles let the trenches get thin and smallish. Several teams pushed us around during Miles last two years. NO ONE did that this year during the second half and no one will do it next year.

Why the second half caveat? What happened the first half?

Miles was never a good coach. He was the beneficiary of good timing. He is Larry Coker

That's not the point. The point is: he's a better coach than Ed Orgeron, a man who has never even been trusted enough to be a coordinator. Remind you of anyone? How about Brady Hoke?

Recruiting is on par, if not better.
Saban beat Troy by 3. Miles beat Troy by 3.
This is the best we’ve looked vs Bama since ‘12.

Miles did less with more then any other coach at LSU, any game we played that required knowledge of the game of football and strategy, we were at a disadvantage. Coach O may not have been the best choice, but to move on from Miles is a BIG step in the right direction.

Don't believe me, Just ask the large number of ADs looking for a coach that wont even give him an interview.

Geaux Tigers, Im proud of my team again.

New offense, had to play 2 freshmen on the O line, dealing with a poorly managed roster Miles left him.

All of that and he still won 9 games.

Hats of to coach O.

Do you realize that in Les's last full year, LSU was #5 in the country heading in the Bama game?


Do you realize that happened only because we could line up and run the ball until we got to bama. What happen when we needed coaching and a game plan? What happen when we didn't have superior talent?

Miles threw up all over himself is what happen.

If Miles is such a great talent, if he knows the game so well, why doesn't he get a interview for another job.

Thank the Lord above he never messed around with our Defense, we would have never gotten above 500.

Miles is a simpleton, had he been hired after Gerry D, he would have had the same type of seasons as he did at Oky State. 4 years, 3 bowl games, won 1.

I can see the difference. Less points scored. Just as many losses. Lost to a fun belt team. Historically worst loss to Miss State.

why did we fire Les Miles


He was a mid-level coach that was completely burned out where he was....he needed to be fired or retire. I'd have liked to have seen him retire but he was too dumb to do that.

quote:

recruiting is worse than miles


There is no proof of this....this class could be better than many Miles signed. I see you are ate up with rankings....that's OK but it means jack shite. What did Miles do with all those classes? 1 title with many players he didn't recruit.

Debatable
