You provided opinion
quote:This is a fact, not an opinion.
2005 against UT, leaves a TO on the board and lets the clock run out of the first half
quote:Fact. This is what actually happened, not an opinion or an interpretation.
2009 against UW. End of first half, UW is happy to run out the clock, Les calls TO's even though the best case scenario has us getting the ball inside the 20 with no TO's and about 15 seconds left. UW throws a long pass on 3rd and long, steals 3 points at the end of the half.
quote:Once again, historical record, this happened. Not an opinion.
2010 Alabama, we get a fumble recovery with about 7 minutes left or so. Les had no intention of passing it because we ran three straight dives. But for some reason, JJ is snapping the ball with 20 seconds left on the clock each time.
quote:FACT! Mother fricking goddamn fact!
2013 Ole Miss the Rebs set up for a game winning FG with over 20 seconds left on the clock. Les calls TO with 6 seconds left.
quote:This however, IS an opinion.
Christ! What a fricking reach
quote:Has not shite to do with his clock management. NOT A GODDAMN THING!!!
I'll give you facts and not opinion. LSU leads all BCS and all SEC schools in wins since 2005. No SEC school has more SECW or SEC titles since 2005 than LSU. No school in the BCS has a better OOC record than LSU since 2005. LSU has played in two BCSCGs in the last seven seasons winning one.
That's a great nine season record no matter the name of the coach directing it.
quote:What? Second guessing? These were easy calls at the time they happened.
little more than second guessing of the same type decisions made by many coaches each Saturday or Sunday.

What I know is your opinion that a game decision was a time management blunder doesn't make that a fact. It makes it your opinion and judging by the five examples you gave, not a very smart opinion.
This:

You are clueless. I am addressing time management issues.
You aren't addressing anything I bring up. You seriously think emoticons and name calling is actually a response.

You've got a lot of room to talk about that. Care to address anything I brought up to you besides your opinion of ESPN "journalists?"
The only fact is Les is LSU's winningest coach, and his results place him in the very upper echelon of active coaches. The fact that you can only definitively place rank one coach ahead of his says all you need to know about how good he is.
And if you want to keep spouting off time management BS, I'm sure if you follow any program as closely as LSU you will find just as many ticky tack examples of whatever "great" coach you are looking at. Hell, Saban screwed the pooch in his last game at clock management.

JHC, I addressed your five examples twice and explained why 80% of them were not good examples of what most would see as some kind of terrible blunder. I gave you Old Miss, but the others are petty second guessing with no sound by the book basis.
Every coach in the game makes decisions that others can pick apart after the fact and call out as some kind of blunder, but very, very few of those coaches can also point to their teams:
leading "all BCS and all SEC schools in wins since 2005. No SEC school has more SECW or SEC titles since 2005 than LSU. No school in the BCS has a better OOC record than LSU since 2005. LSU has played in two BCSCGs in the last seven seasons winning one."

just feel like people are frustrated because LSU has the talent and coaches yet we always have 2-3 games per year that should be for sure wins that end up being nail biter
The best coach in cfb , with the most talent, loses to a less talented team every year but once.

I think he is a very good coach, not great. To suggest greatness would be to put him on par with other coaches who he is definitely not on par with.

that's very debateable, don't really see Meyers being in the same class as Saban and Miles. He's been a pretty good coach over the years but hasn't been proven over time like the other two in the discussion.
Posted on 12/14/13 at 10:16 pm to boxcar willie
all coaches make mistakes if you really look at it. The difference between a mistake and a great call is often a matter of luck. We just tend to focus more on Miles because he is LSU head coach. Put any other coach there and you would still be having the same discussion

We've got our most successful coach ever, and he is somewhat likely to finish his first decade at LSU with a better record than USC, Michigan, and LSU had in their best decades ever, and people like you still can't be happy. You're pathetic. Move on and find another team. You're doing nothing but bothering people here.

2 national titles and has been a winner at 3 different places... The guy is a great coach.
