And I know a few weeks ago in a discussion with Rick Daddy that a quick check discovered that roughly 90% of his posts on the rant over the past few months were still directly related to miles

Frankly it almost seems like one more a-hole troll of LSU fans because I have never heard a coach in my entire life who didn't preach the concept of mismatches and taking advantage where your team has an advantage
The ability to do that is literally the difference between a good coach and a bad coach but all coaches try to do it. Just some are better at it than others
Since even being mentally ill wouldn't explain that comment and he can't possibly have been brought up in coaching thinking that all you can conclude is it is but one more example that he's an arrogant assholes

I think he is that stupid. I think he basically ran on emotions. It was great for forming affective bonds with his players -- that's why they all loved him. But it did not make for great strategy -- as his comment illustrates, he basically just wanted to out-chest the other team. That's not a strategy, that's an emotion. One that should be suppressed when the other team is stronger than yours is.

This is why I laughed at the idea some middle-of-the-road school would pick miles up even if he wanted a job
Miles coaching Style absolutely requires that he always have the better players on the field. If miles coached at Kentucky he would average 2 wins a season because the man has no idea how to manufacture victory if he can't just run you over

Thank god Miles was only a football coach, where that ridiculous strategy only resulted in lost football games. I shudder to think of the results if he was in the real world, as a business leader or, far worse, a military leader.

If Miles was a general defending a Port City against a foe with no Navy miles would still figure out how to be surrounded on all sides

correct. it basically proved our points we made for years. If not even a crap school wanted him they saw what we saw.

so how do you explain him at Oklahoma State?
and you've really moved on from bashing miles like you've said.

"Attack them where they are strong. You have to make them bend."
To be fair, that's a way of saying "don't let them dictate what you do".
Saban knows defense inside and out, and if you focus solely on attacking the 'weakness', he will play chess with you, baiting you to do things.
Going after the strength of the defense keeps the defense's calls more basic, since they aren't disguising and adjusting as much. At that point, it's simply talent and execution to do.
Game in Tuscaloosa in 2011, and again during Fournette's freshman year- we ran right at them, and did make them bend. Was 1-1 vs them, should have been 2-0.

I'll guarantee you that you could give miles and All Star NFL team and Belichik the Cleveland Browns and miles would be lucky to go 1 + 15 a season where they only played each other

I didn't defend Les, but I'm not going to trash him either. I don't think we have any room to. I wanted him gone, and replaced with an elite coach.
Instead LSU replaced him with ORGERON. I mean, shite. The man whose coaching strategy has to be NOT to coach.
I'll bet all you people who are trashing Miles will be making excuses for O when his records end up being the same or worse, which will prove you are a O fan, not an LSU fan.

Miles should have been gone YEARS ago!!!

2014 is obviously the year I'm talking about, with juice and beckham....

cool. that's youre opinion and youre entitled to it. I think he should've been fired after 2015.
Posted on 9/2/17 at 11:47 am to ShortyRob
I'm amazed by your disdain for Miles considering all he accomplished... I really think fans became delusional based on how he started. Hell even when he went 11-1 fans bitched about him, so for some you can no make happy.
After he was fired you had "fans" coming out of the woodwork with comments such as, "see I told you we should have never hired him." "Larry Coker 2.0" and stupid shite like that.
I really think LSU fans just like to complain about nothing

yeah because counter attacking and mixing it up is so terrible. Bama dictated to us what D they would run and lestard did not do shite about it most times.

Seems like they are a far superior team since he's left.. so how do you explain that?
