..from an OK St fan or booster about Miles and how his career would go and how we would feel in the end...

Did any of you save it? It was spot on

Miles was going to get fired at Okie lite if he didn't get the LSU job. Fact. T-Boone couldn't stand him.

Yeah, a decade later after 1 National Title and another runner-up we are going to look at some Oklahoma State fan comments? Come on. Miles was spectacular his first 6 years.

And that's what the comment was. They said the beginning would be great, then you'll soon find out why we didn't want him to stay. And we reached the same conclusion as OK ST

Where did I say that? Neither did the guy's post. I'm digging for it. It's out there somewhere.

Do you remember the negative comments about Nick Saban when LSU hired him?

Except we had successes and won some titles.

I don't think any LSU fan is upset about the overall results of the Les Miles tenure.

Every school in the country would take Miles' 6 years. Okie State would have murdered their brothers for it. The comments are asinine.

"I'll tell ya about you Miles, he's gonna win like crazy for 6 years including a national title, but you'll be dissapointed and want him gone a few years later"

See how asinine that is? Especially when he's still heads and shoulders better than Gundy?

That's incorrect. Pickens offered Miles a blank check to stay, including any and all facility improvements he wanted. GTFOH.....

Well, frick...that is true of EVERY coach that is eventually dismissed (did not leave for another job)



The Dolphins EVENTUALLY had to get rid of Don Shula for Gawd's sake

I have a good friend who is an OSU alum. They were pretty butt hurt when we took Les, but then moved on pretty quickly afterward. My buddy had a good time laughing at some of Les's more bizarre statements and actions. He was surprised at how well Miles did at LSU.

^^See how asinine that is. As soon as Less Smiles left, Ok State was competitive with Gundy. Youre comparing the little brother school(OSU) of a school(OU) who goes to its neighboring state(TX) for ALL their players to a State school(LSU) with no in-State competition and ready-made NFL recruits.

I knew we had a clown on our hands when he tried to call that timeout in his first game after a change in possession.

And that clown then went on to 2 national titles games, winning 1. We should have known he'd suck from those sour Oklahoma State fans. I totally see what you're saying. Jeez.
