I don't. I hope he somehow lights up the Big12. That league could use some parity.

So, to me, the question is why did he change after 2 games in Ks when he wouldn’t at LSU ?
Jeff Long ?
You can't install a spread RPO in a week under NCAA practice time restrictions.
They've been working on this since Miles got there.
And like any good head coach, he's not going to create a game plan to reveal it against Indiana State or Coastal Carolina. (Coastal Carolina was a tough loss.)
The big payoff would come from revealing the new offense against Boston College, The first P5 team on their 1029 schedule.
Brilliant move. Well played.
P.S. Posters reveal themselves as morons when they use the term "toss dive" or "pitch dive" to identify the panoply of plays that Miles runs with a toss. They aren't toss dives. I appreciate the fact that they reveal themselves as morons. Although TrueTigerTale and Shorty Rob long ago announced themselves as morons. TTT needs an in-depth education on football and Shorty Rob needs anger therapy . . . a lot of it. Wow, you're mad at Miles' success.

Interesting thought, absurd though it is.

Baylor was good (albeit during the sick Art Briles era), Iowa State is pretty good, K State is no pushover, West Virginia is bad this year but was good under Holgerson, and even Texas Tech has had its moments, especially on offense.

And where is the bigger payoff, trouncing Indiana State or Boston College?
Which gets the bigger media coverage? No one on earth would give a frick if Kansas trounces Indiana State or Coastal Caroline. Beat BC at BC by 20+ when you're a 20 point dog? That gets covered by everyone for a few days.
But you tell me more about absurd thoughts.

It's a shame it took him this long, had he adapted after 2015 he'd still be the LSU coach today & he'd have a chance to go down as one of the best SEC coaches ever after Saban/Bear/Neyland. instead of being in the Fulmer tier he'd be in the Spurrier tier.

its amazing how you never have a problem with any poster doing nothing but shitting on the most accomplished coach in lsu history( the school you love).
But seeing how easily and seamless it was to adapt a new offense was here at LSU, his tenure towards the end now has a very bad taste in my mouth

ah, . . . no, I didn't:
If Miles has a secret playbook (which he doesn't) and he used it, he was playing with fire, because it cost him a terrible loss to Coastal Carolina and a near-loss to FCS Indiana State - he needed a late TD to bail him out.
Maybe, just maybe, the KU offense took a few games to get going. No secret playbook involved.

O has been talking about doing this since he got hired, not sure easy and seamless is the way to describe it

if it prevented him from beating CC, it wasn't brilliant or well played

It took 3 years and 2.5 offensive coordinators to change it

Ed's old school football instincts didn't really want to change either. Moving our offense from late 80's Michigan to early 2000's USC was as good as it was going to get had O not realized that if he didn't change he wasn't going to cash those 7 figure checks for very long.

Exactly.
I'm constantly surprised by the depths of idiocy on here. Of course he's been working on it for a while.
People seriously think Miles was clicking on the LSU games and then decided "hey, that's a great idea, let's do that." People actually think that.

Les Miles is now in a conference where only two teams are actually something that one would think he couldn't really ever surpass no matter how long he's there, those being Oklahoma and Texas.
But the rest of the big 12 is within his reach to end up passing over time. All he has to do is recruit well and that's something that no matter how he is percieved was always something he could do as well as anyone in the country. If he gets some real players in that program then we could end up watching Kansas become a program that is suddenly winning 8+ games a year.
For whatever reason real talents want to play for the man and I won't be surprised to see him end up making Kansas a top 25 team sooner rather than later.
I laughed my arse off at national media wannabes who said MIles would be a failure at Kansas.
