I keep seeing posters say his age has no affect on him getting hired yet they can't name a p5 program in cfb that had hired a 63 year old HC in the last decade.
Snyder is the only one and he had already been their coach.

I don't think he overstayed his welcome, I think he got to the expectations didn't meet the product.
For most schools he would have been a godsend still but because of the level he raised it to and our fast food generation, it was time for him to go.

Spot on. He was fired for not keeping lsu at standard HE SET.

The man is looking for a job......is he really supposed to say bad things about his abilities? I mean for perspective we all have been on the job market at some point in our lives

Name one coach that discredits himself....
Posted on 4/5/17 at 9:25 pm to EyeOfTheTiger14
He is confusing being a good guy with being a good coach. He was so awesome people just jumped at the opportunity to have him when he was fired. He didn't make LSU, LSU made him look like a good coach.

Before lsu hired Miles he had proven he could turn a shite program into a respectable program
He was 28-21 at ok st. 7-5 his last year there before LSU hired him?

Considering where Okie State was, worse than LSU when Dinardo took over, that is turning around a program

Before he got there they had 1 winning season in the previous 13 years. They had more than 4 wins just 3 times from 1987-2001.

Saban's 1st 3 years at lsu(lsu was in far better shape Oklahoma state)= 26-12
Miles 1st 3 years at a program that had 1 winning season in the previous 13 years= 21-16

Yeah i really need mental gymnastics when I state facts about miles tenure. Miles had one of the best tenures in the entire history of the sec. Miles had the most successful tenure in lsu history. There are no mental gymnastics needed for that. All you need is to accept reality.
Yes, Miles is such a great coach, and this is known by all, and the reason why we know this is because schools are fighting each other to hire him, including LSU.
LSU wants Miles back, right? I mean, if Coach O can't turn things around in a season or two, you want Miles back, right?
Oh, Miles is unemployed? Nobody has hired him? Then you'd better invent an excuse for this! I suggest you cite "Age Discrimination" as the reason, because that's a completely speculative reason.

That's true. You are correct about this. If someone starts a thread to discuss Coach Miles they shouldn't do so to bash him because there's nothing constructive about that.
But, answer this for us, if you will. Did you agree with Miles being fired? If so, then you agreed with the NegaTigers. You see, the Negas were able to identify ALL of Miles's deficiencies just a bit more early than YOU identified his deficiencies.
Of course, you may have opposed Miles being fired. You may wish that Miles were still the coach. That is a reasonable opinion. HOWEVER, that opinion is shared by very few.

you're making a blanket statement....without facts to back it up. You like facts. You can't simply slam a majority of the fanbase because you dislike their take on Les Miles.

this is true. Its usually a nega who starts these threads...but I've noticed the Les supporters never, ever resist that shiny hook. They ALWAYS rush into the thread to defend the man's honor. Rarely do I ever comment on a positive thread about Miles. I'm not saying I've never done it but I try to stay out of the lovefest threads to avoid the inevitable conflict that follows.

Which is somehow not acceptable while you Miles haters flock like mindless robots to join in the conversation? How does this "shiny hook" NOT apply to you haters?

Ever or do you just wait until it turns negative, then jump in with all guns blazing?

And for record, this IS NOT a positive Miles thread...not that I would expect you to know the difference.

Gray Tiger, unless you wish Coach Miles were the Coach RIGHT NOW then you have joined the NegaTigers.
The Negas core position was that Miles had gone as far as he could and it was time for a change.
The only difference between the PosiTigers that agree that it was time for a change and the NegaTigers is this: The Negas came to that same conclusion a bit sooner.
It's absurd for Posis to twist logic with the assertion that "the Negas were crazy and wrong about wanting him gone just a bit longer because my slightly later timing on when Miles should have been gone is correct".
That said, I do disagree with threads like this one. It's NOT amazing that Coach Miles would say what he says now, so nobody should be triggered by what he says now.
PS If LSU fan "hates Les Miles" that is a really illogical emotion to have. It's more than illogical, it is irrational. Coach Miles is going to be on campus for various events and celebrations in the future. We should all want him to feel welcome.
I'd like to see statues built for the three coaches that won football NCs for LSU. If we want to feel anger for any of these three men, Paul Dietzl should be the focus of any anger because he left LSU voluntarily to go coach Army.

This is what most Posis can't accept. The squawking from the negas for Miles to go started a few years before he was canned. Those that supported him took that as a personal indictment of the man's character, his accomplishments, everything.
People saw what they wanted to see and nothing else.
