Les Miles thread (merged)

Hope they don't consider Les Miles. My how quickly people forget his lack of offense. Couldn't recruit a QB. His unwillingness to change OC and just stick with his "system". His mismanagement of games and the clock. Nobody else's willingness to hire him after he was let go at LSU. South Carolina chose Will Muschamp over Les. Ole Miss probably hasn't talked with him. This should make people worry a little when trying to build up Les Miles.

Doesn't bother me a bit to toot his horn. You can say anything you want about stubborness, lack of QB coaching, old offense, whatever. His records and accomplishments in the SEC are second to one, and only one. And he beat him 3 times.

Orgeron is a short timer. He'll do OK, but not good enough. Soon, they will be wanting a coach to come in and win like Miles did.

Exactly. Miles can win at a high level in the SEC. Fact.

The man averaged 10 wins a season, had a Natty and conference titles, and had the winningest program in the SEC from 05-15. (Saban came to bama in 07, so that included years against him). And 5 coach of the year awards. I would actually be excited to see him in orange. He's got an established path to success.

And unlike most of the names tossed about, he has SEC recruiting experience and a boatload of HS coaching contacts. He knows the lay of the land starting on day 1.
 
We could save on grounds crew costs with Les on the sidelines, let him graze on the grass🤢
 
There is a reason you don't hear his name associated with any of the major openings. But by all means continue to pretend he would be a great choice.
 
You have a way of thinking for others, in this case you’re wrong..

Ok please Answer this. If Miles came to Tennessee, started winning 9-11 games a year, have us winning the East more often than not and having us competitive against Bama with poor QB play, would it matter? If so, why?

I don’t want Les if that answers you’re question, QB play was his downfall.. period

He wouldn't have bad QB play....

Here is why LSU struggles to get good qb play...
It's the region that they are in. That region you have a style of football played in High school where they put best athletes at qb and let them run.... teams then stack the box to stop the qb athletes and they then throw slants to athletes that score because the safety's are up to stop the running qb...

So they have these kids that have 1,700 yards rushing and 2,000 yards passing with 40tds so the stats look amazing and they get high rankings even though they really didn't read and make great throws... but they are HIGHLY rated and LSU can't pass on these kids because they can't miss on the local kids. People get fired for that.

It's like when you see a NFL take a QB in the top 5 & your like man that QB isn't that good. But NFL teams still take them... why????

Because they can't miss on that guy... if he don't pan out your like well it's on that qb.... if you miss on the guy your looking for another job.
