re: Knowing what you know today, do you still fire Miles

Goddamit. It didn't have to be a Les vs O decision.

It's not, but many people here didn't believe in the buyer beware statements of those who warned about firing miles


I thought it was time for him to go, but there was some comfort in having a known entity in place

not if its to hire Capt. Orgeron.

NO! We got greedy

I know lots of people want Alexander gone, and I'll ask again.

Who fires him?

The most frustrating thing to me is the contract...

Most knew O was a huge reach of a hire, and maybe there were no other legitimate options, but you could have easily paid him half of what he was offered

Yes, Miles ship left years back. Last night isn’t about Miles...it’s about our lack of a coaching search that even then made LSU the laughingstock of college football.

YES... Knowing what we know know, we should have fired Miles after losing to Bama in the championship game. The program never recovered from that game, and the slow spiral down is clear. The exodus of players and commitments during Miles last years has led to what we have now.

You fire him after Texas AM.

I think it's less about the hire and more about why O was given an additional $12m guaranteed beyond this year. He should have been a cheap hire.

Hell no. The mistake was keeping him in 2016. It forced us to fire him after AU and gave O an opening
