He used the coaching vacancy, at Arkansas, to obtain a significant raise and an extension of the term of his contract. Alleva must be very gullible to think that Miles would leave LSU for Arkansas. The bottom line is it will be much more expensive, and as a result more difficult, to terminate Miles. Over the last 5 years, Miles has averaged three losses per season. The 2011 season was an aberration. Unfortunately, Miles is presiding over LSU's descent to a mid-level SEC team.
I'm kind of burnt out on doomsday predictions. LSU will have another great recruiting class. With just a little bit of fortune they will be another drive away from getting there again and it just may happen this time.
What are you smoking sport? Only 1 SEC team has fewer loses than LSU in the past 5 years. 2010 was a 2 loss season that could have been 0 loss. This year only in the Fl game did LSU not lead till the last few seconds. Get a grip son and use your education (from your ID I assume you are a lawyer) and do real analysis rather than cry the sky is falling. If you analyse your cases like you just did football you will need to find another profession. Follow George Patton's advice and "don't take counsel of your fears". LSU has some challenges but we have a great nucleaus and another great recruiting class. Things are not nearly as bad as you fear
