This thread is not about reality, facts, or records. It is about personal emotion. Don't bring reality in here-it is not appreciated.

If I'd said that Miles couldn't coach at all or that he never made ANY good decisions in games, you'd have a point.
You said he got out-coached fairly often, and I brought up five examples where his calls were the difference in the ball game.
No one who was at the 2007 LSU-Florida game will ever forget Les going 4-4 on fourth down.
No one who watched the 2010 Alabama game will forget the reverse that completely buffaloed Saban. Or the long pass from Lee later that iced the game.
No one who watched the 2007 South Carolina game will ever forget the fake FG that had the Old Ball Coach shaking his head afterward.
You and a lot of the other Miles haters focus in on the negatives and completely lose sight of the good things Miles has done.
You want coaching? Show me another coach that has gone for it on fourth down and made it 15 of the last 17 times over the last 3 seasons.
I'll take The Hat!

no one knows who the best college coach is. harbaugh was not widely considered the best but look what he has done at the next level. lil nicky
could not have done any better at stanford than harbaugh. put saban at rutgers or iowa and see how may NCs he would have. yes, saban is a very good coach but he benefits from being at a school steep in tradition, deep pocket spending, and located in the mist of the best talent in the country. take those things away from saban or les and they would just be good coaches. only a few college programs offfer the most elite benefits that would allow a coach the opportunity to shine at the highest level. it is not an even playing field so no one knows who really is the best.

I'll summarize thoughts about Saban with a few terse statments:
a) He was good for LSU; we were good for him.
b) He is a liar.
c) He is a fantastic def coach.
d) He is Tiger Bait!
I look forward to playing Bama for "victory" on 11/3.

Harbaugh didn't win a NC, so what in the frick are you talkin about? Not even a SB, so once again what the frick are you talkin about? No frickin comparison.
Harbaugh went to a team in the NFL with a top defense, really good RB and TE, all he had to do was turn the QB around which he did. Saban inherited a total POS team in Miami, and had to deal with egos there as well. The situations are in no way to be frickin compared, get the frick outta here with that shite.

So easy to defend Saban yet so hard to defend Les. Pathological hatred. You really should be a Bama fan. I usually think people that say that phrase are silly-but you warrant it.

Some of you butt hurt whiners should go cheer for Alabama where your hero coaches.

How many people in this thread have said that Les has no weaknesses?
Posted on 9/28/12 at 4:36 pm to BigAppleTiger
well, I don't cry about Saban losing to ULM or Utah to make myself feel better like you pussies do. If Miles had won the NC last season like he should have you wouldn't even here me complaining about him, but the coaching difference is obvious, something you morons continue to ignore!

Then why isn't it obvious in their respective records on the field where coaching is judged?

It is. Didn't you see it a few pages back? Saban 2-0 NC's. Miles 0-1 NC's. This is the only shite that counts, all that other BS is just that BS! This is the last 5 years!

You are so vaginally feline that I no longer am upset by your stupidity. How sad to be you. Carry on.
Posted on 9/28/12 at 4:43 pm to BigAppleTiger
ah, the typical pussified insult to make yourself feel better. I won't even respond to that crap!
and it's not sad to be me, I live in reality, you dolts should try it!

So 2007 isn't within the last 5 years. Hmmmmm.....

No, man. 2007+5 gives you 2012. Do you frickin know math? guess not.

You should start a 'CLM sux' OP and give it a bump every once in a while for the next 5-8 years. There's a segment that would love it and it would be an excellent meeting place.
