re: LOL at Les Miles haters

I concur. High school coaches manage the game better than he does. That is not a lie or an exaggeration, it's the truth.

Dude, chill, Everything will work out on it's own after next year anyways.

Regardless of what you or I think. That's the reality of it all.

So, did Tenn or USC approach Miles? Hell no - They don't want him. So, what's the whole point of this thread? It means nothing.

Exactly. This guy starts a thread about how lucky we are to have Miles because 2 other schools (at the worst possible times in completely different situations) didn't get their first choice. And that is supposed to make everyone glad to have Les as our coach?

Not following the logic...

The difference between me and a lot of the posters in this thread is I'm not automatically assuming that the next head coach of LSU will be better than the current one.

It won't be too difficult to find someone with the ability to gameplan and actually have the team ready to play each week. 2 primary tasks of coaching that have escaped his mental capacity.

if that happens then it will be the most colossal failure of failures in the history of failures. pelini would pull a kiffin on nebraska imo to come back to LSU, and i don't even think he'd be an initial candidate for the job. you're syaing you there's a possibility we'd have to settle for the 4th, 5th, or 6th guy on our list---i'm saying any of those guys on that part of the list would be an upgrade.

Did Tenn approach Saban or Brown or Beamer or Stoops or del Rio? How would you know?
But the truth is that you don't KNOW who Tenn might have approached. Do you? You have no clue. About a lot of stuff.

Then you must not completely understand exactly how bad our current coach is.

Ummm... All of you people really sound utterly retarded to be honest. You are comparing USC and Tennessee to LSU.

USC is as good or better a job under normal circumstances, but let's get real. They are possibly about to get nailed with sanctions, and no coach in their right mind would go there right now. Thus, Lane Kiffin went.

At Tennessee, it is a completely different story. They weren't prepared at all for Kiffin leaving, AND have potential recruiting violation issues, and HAVE to recruit nationally with absolutely minimal talent in their own state. I'd assume if LSU FIRED Les (not him leaving utterly out of the blue), they'd have at least made some preparations in advance for a replacement search.

That said, LSU is a very talented team in a recruiting healthy state and good connections into hot recruiting beds in Texas, Mississippi, and Florida. I'd say that's a much better job opportunity.

People forget that the reason we ended up with Miles in the first place was because Petrino made a supposedly "anti-Semitic" joke that our idiotic AD (at the time) got offended by and said forget it.

In the end, anyone expecting Les to be fired this year is just a moron.

I would take Derek Dooley over Miles (after all, he DID outcoach Miles with a bunch of non-starter freshmen, and almost won). Don't think he wouldn't be moving to BR if asked!!

(Not that I think we can't do BETTER than Dooley, mind you. But he's still better than Miles.)
