i still contend miles is in over his head at lsu. time will tell but last years senior laden team had emotion which carried over from the years with saban. miles is totally emotionless. no facemask pulling or screaming in the faces of players when they **** up. imo less=no fire. this is not osu.
What was the Tigers record before Saban got here? How was the talent base? These are just questions to consider. I think Les is a good recruiter but let's see how good of a coach he is.
Kajun, I guess these people can't even consider that Miles might be in over his head. I think he has to clear himself of Saban's talent and then weather the storm. I agree with you that he might be in over his head. If the Tigers drop a 7-5 this year let's see where the blind bats might be. They'll be in the cave with the rest of the blind bats.
Sure we can, but we're not foolish enough to suggest he'll be "run out of town" after this season if he went 7-5 or 8-4. Recent history tells us this will be a difficult year b/c of our schedule ... it happens in even numbered years. What was our 2004 record? But consider all the facts of the 2005 season ... new coaching staff, hurricanes that postponed and moved games, playing 11 (or was it 12?) consecutive weeks, etc. Sure, there some questionable coaching that went on during the year. But look at the overall year and consider all the facts. Look what happened when they had a chance to catch their breath and prepare for a bowl game without all those distractions. Yes, I still have questions. But short of Miles molesting a young boy, he'll be our coach in 2007.
Considering that Miles did with Saban's talent what Saban couldn't do with Saban's talent, I think LSU has a lot of happy years ahead with Miles as the HC.
Yep, comparing every year from now on out to one season, 2003, is gonna be tough on any coach, even Saban (had he stayed), if that one year is someone's only point of reference.
What did he do with Saban's talent that Saban didn't? Lose the SEC CG?:hihi: Just messing with ya on this one, but I'd like to hear your answer.
I kinda figured she meant beating BAMA, Auburn, & Florida in the same year, but I just couldn't resist taking a jab when the opportunity presented itself.
