This is also fricking hilarious. I would rather have Stoops I'm almost sure...

OU is not exactly a hotspot for talent, he has to recruit hard in Texas. If he the same access to recruits like Les does?...

Stoops built the program and has consistently won conference championships and dominated his primary rival, a program comparable to OU's. He's not perfect, but OU has been a top 5 program under him.

He's won about 5 more conference titles than Les Miles.

I think Les cost Stoops a potential title shot back in '01. Beat him a couple of years in a row, IIRC.

Les' best work has come as an underdog.

I guess I was wrong about that...but that's what the public perception of him is. There's a reason he has that nickname.
Texas sucks so I don't see that as some huge accomplishment. Big 12 titles are nice though

i'm going to go back to 2003

2003: lost to a better team
2004: lost to a better team
2006: lost to BSU. OU only made it to the BCS b/c colt mccoy got hurt and UT lost their last 2 games. OU slid into the big12 title game and had a WR playing QB that year due to car gate
2007: lost to a better team
2008: lost to a better team
2012: lost to a better team

i mean there is only so much he can do when people overrate OU and people believe their opponents are underdogs

People don't dislike Miles because of the results/performance. They dislike him because he's different in personality than Saban but people are reluctant to admit it for fear of coming off as petty and shallow.

Well Stoops has been at OU about twice as long as Miles has been at LSU. That and the SEC has been way more competitive than the Big 12 over the last 10 seasons.

this. I'd rather win 1 SEC title over 2-3 big 12 titles.

Does Miles have 6 conference championships, an undefeated national championship season, or 4 BCS National Championship Game appearances? Didn't think so.
