Damn my bad, I must have mentally blocked out the Wisc game. I've been doing a lot of that the last couple years


Technically it wasn't a full year so you are forgiven. BUT...If his 1st loss in the regular season out of conference came in the opener of his 12th year. That is still pretty good.

For the ones who wanted LES fired...you deserve this

History will show that Les was the greatest coach in LSU history.

I supported Miles since day 1 until towards the end of the 2015 season. At that point, there were so many people who wanted him gone, I thought it would be best for the program. And the first game vs Wisconsin, it became clear he wasn't willing to tweak his offensive philosophy so something had to be done, but while it might not have always been pretty, we went into every single game with a chance to win.

People can say what they want about Miles, but we never went in a game knowing we would get beat. Of course we haven't beaten Bama since 2011, but we still went into those games thinking that this could be the year we ended Bama's winning streak. He wasn't Nick Saban, but who is? At least we were always Bama's biggest threat. And he loved LSU. Wasn't perfect, but because everyone wanted to be Alabama, we ended up with a fraud as a HC.

O just wanted to be a HC. When he took over for Kiffen at USC, we finished what? 5-2? He wanted that job bad and didn't get it. He smelled blood at LSU. Miles is a football coach who just wants to coach football. He is passionate about the game. I think O was looking for a payday more than he wanted to coach, I am not saying he doesn't like to coach, I am just saying.. As for as he is concerned, he is in good shape. If he isn't successful, o well, they fire him, and is owed $12M... He sure as hell talked a good game, but most of it was bullshite.. And look where we are. If we beat Florida, that will keep things above water temporarily, but if we lose.. Our goal for the year becomes at least trying to make a bowl game. And that's where this program will be.. A program hoping to make it to a bowl game and that is a damn shame.

Between the talent, the talent we have access to, the facilities, etc.. That is completely unacceptable.

Les Miles is a better head coach than coach Orgeron.

No one is disputing that. No one.

That doesn't change the fact that Les Miles needed to be fired.
