I work with a couple of big time Bama fans and they both were petrified that we would get Smart and Nick would give Steele another shot. The minute this happened they both went crazy, they said it couldn't have gone better for Bama. I just hope this isn't as horrible as it sounds but I'm not optimistic.

Get off your high horse bro...

Go to any teams football forum and see what they react when they make, at best, a questionable hire. The reaction would be the exact same.

I'm assuming the OP has never hired anyone...or has a horrible résumé himself and is projecting.

You hire stellar people based on stellar resumes for stellar jobs.

You hire mediocre people with mediocre resumes when you are comfortable with mediocrity.

I have never settled for mediocrity in my life, business or otherwise.

Do any of you think Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Ohio State, Oregon, FSU or any elite program would hire the Kevin Steele we know today as a DC?

How hard would it have been to hire a competent DC?


Nobody would be complaining if this was the case

LSU fans are just complete morons.

The inferiority complex so many have would be comical if it weren't so pitiful.

I will apply that philosophy equally to Miles & Steele. Steele is a really BAD hire using any benchmarks.

Bottom line. This hire represents a vote of no confidence by the coaching community of Miles.

Anyone denying this is lying to themselves.

So he's not competent before he's coached a game at LSU?

Oh ok

Agreed. Ignore the facts and pump sunshine with blind faith.

Optimism should not be the default reaction.
