re: LSU'S last three years...Just a bare bones look....

I'm still having a hard time figuring out the point of this thread. Who on here didn't know, or couldn't look up, LSU's record the past three years? Why did we need a thread dedicated to it? The fact that karma only posts on the OT, Movie, and other boards explains why this thread is pointless and OT-esque.

if things dont change, those wins will eventually become losses more times than not.

That's correct. It's 14-1 OOC and 14-10 SEC.

I see someone trying to skew the information about our coach and program by only including the last three years.

I think it's important to look at the trend of his first years, then the years after the NC as well, very obvious trend.

Les Miles' first 3 years was pretty void of us playing down to opponents and losing games we shouldnt have lost. Despite losing to inferior opponents in our national title year, both were pretty talented teams that beat us in overtime.

yes, they were wins this year, but if handled the same, they will be losses.
This is the most truth LE has ever spouted.

There is no coincidence. Because you were using the last two years last offseason. It's just an attempt to keep blaming Miles for 2008. It was a down year, move on.
I'm shocked that you used the length of time to make Miles look the worst, including his worst season, but not including anything prior to it. It's an arbitrary end point and we all know it.
i've done nothing of the sort baloo. i just picked this time frame to look at this.
no opinions were posted. the fact that you guys seem to to think that i'm trying to use these 3 years to illustrate a point should say something in itself.
i was just picking 3 years. It could have just as easily been 2. or 1. Or all 6.
But in all actuality, I picked 3 years because that was Miles 1st year sans Saban's players, and the beginning of his regime out of the shadow.
I haven't said a thing about how i feel about the program as a whole.

What lunacy. We have some of the most successful years in LSU history this decade, and all you can talk about is how bad we are. I'll agree, there have been blunders, there have been mediocre years, but there hasn't been a single "bad" year. We lost one of the best QBs in the nation due to his own stupidity and had to start a freshman at the spot when he clearly wasn't prepared. That was the worst season we've had in about a decade, and it was still decent. Our offense is currently a running joke on ESPN, but you know what? It did enough to get us 11 victories this season. Whether you point out the blunders and say "it could have been this" or "it should have been this," is really of no consequence. The fact remains that we have one of the elite coaches in college football. So elite, in fact, that the most storied program in football history (or at least top 3) sought our head coach to turn their program around. So elite, in fact, that he's managed to post one of the best records in any BCS conference since he's been here. So elite, in fact, that despite the negative press and dark, fan-hate cloud hanging over his head, he managed to continue to recruit a stellar class of young players to maintain LSU's national relevance. Yes, there are flaws. Clock management has been an issue. Some play calling. Some problems with discipline on the field. But the positives outweigh the negatives. Games will be won and lost - by blunders, by talent, by happenstance. Les has proven that, despite these problems that most football teams have, he helps his team to win.
Additionally, what's your point? Why post this now? Haven't we been listening to and reading this for about 3 years now? Is it because you wanted him to leave? If so, what in the wide wide world of sports would compel you to seek that? It's not like there are many coaches out there that are available and there are 2 great programs already searching for one of those rare elite coaches. Do you think we could snag one over those other 2? I just don't see your point unless you simply wanted to rain on the Les Miles Staying Parade, in which case you need to seek help. I mean therapy type help. Anyone that is so pessimistic and so deranged as to seek to drag others down into the depths of their depression and despair surely needs a nice chaise lounge to lay on and discuss how mommy didn't hug him enough.

reading comprehension is not your strong point is it?
it's too bad that instead of just taking the last three years for what they are, you're looking for some sort of ghost attack.
oh well.

you should've stopped here.

i just posted the last 3 years. Bare bones. Said nothing more nothing less.
Funnily enough, I'm very pleased that Les is staying. It ensures a top 10 recruiting class and continuity into next season.
But. go ahead carry on.
ETA: Also, if anyone feels like taking a look at the last three seasons, giving an assessment of the state of the program, or just a breakdown of what they see, like, dislike.
please feel free.

Sorry, I didn't mean to point this at karma, who has made it clear that he takes absolutely NO stance on the subject of Les Miles or the LSU Tigers program. He clearly meant to simply post a set of stats to incite a riot on the Rant, which seems, actually, fairly typical.

Man i hate when people call Les elite.
Lets go back to the Ole Miss debacle. Right, it was heat of the moment, lets give him a pass. Fine.
Lets focus on Tenn debacle this year. HOW AND THE frick DO YOU LET THAT HAPPEN AGAIN??
Lets go back to the time Miles called a timeout right after LSU intercepted a ball.....
How can you label a coach "elite" when he cannot even manage the clock when the game is on the line?
What other elite coaches get laughed at, what seem week to week on Sportscenter because of dumb mistakes he makes?
That is not elite coaching. I am sorry. It just isnt.

ETC.
