I know Les Miles knows more about football than I do.

So why does he make mistakes that I wouldn't make while coaching in games?

Of course, I would make mistakes that HE wouldn't make.

But then again, I'm the one with the rudimentary knowledge of the game. He's the expert, right?



Right?

It's called an analogy. It means I don't have to be a successful FBS head coach to recognize the fact that our coach is in way over his head.

That's an assumption that no one can prove or disprove. Not a good post.

Yeah but if he is being paid 3,800,000 a year he should know when to call a timeout

Do you remember how much time he wasted before he called the last timeout?

Are you contending this is an isolated incident? His poor clock management skills have been on display since his first game in Tiger Stadium vs Tennessee.

With all due respect to Miles, that's not saying much.

Ricky Bustle knows more bout football and the running of a college football program than 99% of us who post on forums.

The criticism comes with the paycheck and I'm sure Coach smiles all the way to the bank.

I remember some of the TOs was wasted on JJ being injured, RR doesnt know how to line up, commericals for CBS (yes i'm serious ) but it's part of the game and i know some coaches does use TOs to prepare players

You dont noticed that LSU's games has more commercials on CBS than other games?
I think it was the game against Alabama that Miles had to use TO so we wont get a penalty.
Russell can't line up right so Miles had to use a TO on him

Now the real question is "Is Les Miles a better football coach than I am a Chemical Engineer"? And the answer is no... But should be yes.
