re: Who says we cant get someone better than Miles? Coaches with better winning...

And does your criteria for Miles include his LSU win/loss record?

---

Why, when discussing the criteria TO get someone hired at LSU would we include their LSU win totals?

If we are replacing Miles, why would we include him?

he was left off the list for that reason.

I only used his time at OkieState because thats where he was a coach before LSU. You know, before LSU hired him, like it would be for the people on the list?

I know you're smarter than this...geesh.

Can you even imagine the fvcking retards on this board if LSU went 4-8, like Patterson did last season in the Big 12?!

---

dude

the Rant is too reactionary to think beyond what happened last week

much less what happened last year

quote:

---

There are Boises, and Cincinnatis, and Louisville's on there too.

FAIL, pumper.

---

You can't even compare those teams to Oklahoma State when miles for there.

Look at boise state's record before peterson got there. Dan Hawkins was 53-11, and then Dan Hawkins go skull dragged at Colorado. Peterson is 6-5 at Washington.

Som of these coaches we have seen at big time schools, or play in the SEC. Petrino's defenses and recruiting are a joke. Pellmell is still picking up the pieces over there.

Thats not what I said. The point is Miles isnt nearly as irreplaceable as the pumpers claim.

---

No you think a better winning percentage at School X will always translate at LSU, and it doesn't. Some people get worse when they bump up to the SEC. (Dooley, Sumlin,) You can't compare them to LEs at Oklahoma State, you can only compare them to him now. Just having a better winning percentage at your old job doesn't mean you can win at LSU.

quote:

---

recently, that has been opposite. See Miles, Saban, Malzahn, Mullen, Stoops, etc.

---

You want to talk fail? Stoops and Mullen had never had a head coaching job before coming to the SEC. But i guarantee you Stoops had a better record as DC at Florida State. And I Guarantee you Mullen had a better record as OC at Florida.

Also when you are talking about how some people succeed in the SEC, Don't use the guy you are advocating the firing of as an example. When you can come up with fricking 3 examples and 1 of those three is Les Miles.

It's a factual list. Im sorry they hurt your delusional mind.

---

Its a factual list, comparing oranges to zebras. Your basic premise is flawed no matter how much data you have to support the fact that Les Miles didn't have a great winning percentage at Oklahoma State.

Never mind Oklahoma State was a fricking joke before he got there.

I think Graham would be a great choice to replace miles. I lean back on Schiano first though because he has been successful, made the jump the NFL and failed so he is likely to turn into the next Saban at the right program.

all 70 on the list?



keep pumpin that shine!

IMO the risk of a slight slip is worth it if we don't feel like Les is going to win a nc again.

---

The problem is it won't necessarily be a small slip. I'm sure UF thought they had their guy and that he couldn't really bring the program down that much with all the resources at Florida.

It's not that you can't do better, it's that you have to be sure you have your guy that will most likely get you to championships already lined up if you want to even consider firing Miles with his track record.

I'm still not sure it's worth the downside risk. That POV varies depending on if you think Miles will adjust and he the program back on its elite track.

quote:

1. A lot of these coaches are at elite programs, so comparing them to 2001 Oklahoma State is dumb

2. Also implying we could go get Urban Meyer or Jimbo Fisher or Bob Stoops or Night Saban is dumb.

3. there are a lot of coaches that have WORSE winning percentages after they move to the SEC than before . But we assume they would just step in and dominate every single year.

---

This list is stupid as frick for the following reasons:

1. More of those coaches aren't at elite programs or they are the coaches responsible for making those teams elite.

2. We could have had Jimbo Fisher you moron. Bob Stoops is a possible get and is being talked about for the Florida job. He is becoming the Miles of Oklahoma so I don't know why we would want him.

3. It's not like we are Vanderbilt, Kentucky, Tennessee or some other state that doesn't have direct access to top talent. Saying that a coach who is beast f-ing other teams in an other conference wouldn't do equal or better with a team that is more talented than 90% or more of the team it plays is retarded.

You do realize the NCAA is investigating Oklahoma st for violations and payoffs during miles realm huh ?
