great clock management skills
He still hasn't fixed it from year one so I have absolutely zero faith that it will be fixed now, O
a top 50 offense/defense
this cannot be determined until we are certain Chavis is going nowhere. I don't have faith that Miles will either: 1) replace Crowton (I don't think he is a bad OC but he and Miles clearly can no longer co-exist especially since Miles is overriding his playcalls; OR 2) replace Crowton with someone competent (Miles' only "slam dunk" coord hire was Pelini and that was only after widespread fan rebuke of his original choice for DC, Bill Clay). I have 0 faith in Miles making a competent hire at OC.

Consider the progression of players
Name 3 young players who didn't regress: I've got Montgomery and Mathieu. I'd like to see a young stud WR actually improve. I'd like to see an offensive lineman get better over the course of his time at LSU.

7/10. He won't run the program into the ground but needs a slightly better year. An SEC championship and/or BCS bowl game will keep his critics at bay.

The luck will end. Faith w/ both The Not-So-Wizardly One and Miles back for another round---1

BTW: Tiger-N-ATL for calling it like it is. Wish more people like you could see things for how they really are.

Again you avoid a direct question. Deflecting answering it by posing a question to me is generally sign that you aren't confident in your position.

You made a flat sttement. Are you willing to back it up? Is it your prediction that LSU will finish in 3rd place in the west?
That's a pretty simple question. Please answer and not go running and hiding like you tend to do when cornered.

Or maybe just start another protest march.

Then for the sake of fairness, is 3rd in the West your prediction for next year?

For arguements sake I will say 3rd or if he has the lucky horseshoe up his arse again and gets all the right bounces then could see 2nd in the west. I will not say he will be the favorite to win the SEC and then on to the BCS though like others seem to think or dream.

So in other words you have no clue? Ok that's fair. You fit in pretty well around here.

Now just a few other questions:
1. Are all LSU victories a matter of "luck"?
2. What has Miles done to get all this "luck".
3. What makes you believe that whoever is currently favoring Miles will deny him that "luck" in the future?
4. When LSU loses, is there no possibility that the other team had any "luck'?
5. Is "luck" an LSU monopoly?

Who was the favorite to win the West this past year?
How was that determined?
How does being the favorite impact on the way the season actually goes?
Will you consider anything less than winning the BCS as a failed season.

Good idea making an obvious negative thread on Coach Miles the week of the Bowl Game. You turd.
