I think we can see now why CC has had so many jobs............now, if he is being prevented from doing what he wants by "someone else", different story.
With you here but I think the Texas analogy is closer. I feel a lazy entitlement creeping in (coaching). The kind that starts after all career goals are met and the wallet is too fat. Just show up and win on talent isn't enough. There appears to be no game planning. We seem to be missing the grit, discipline, work ethic that separates great talent from great achievement (penalties, getting physically beaten, Jacob Hester come home!). If changes aren't made soon, we will wake up to a disaster that may take a decade to fix.
This thread about sums it all up in one giant lump of shit, and that is exactly what Miles is being paid $4.5 million to produce. The culture of winning is gone. The team comes with zero preparation. There is no more coaching up in any unit. The team comes out flat week after week. The scary part is it's now two weeks in a row that LSU gave up. LSU was always a team that fought to the end with a samurai spirit. The record in the SEC is not good enough. Then you factor in the bowl losses and it proves the down trend. Miles is taking the ship with him. Time for a change.
Here are the win numbers in the SEC starting w/ 2011: 8, 6, 5, 4, 4 (currently, and looking very realistic that it will stay stuck there). Trending in the wrong direction, folks. Not acceptable with the talent that Miles recruits. Yes, players have to execute and perform; however, they are not being placed in an optimum position to do so. Does Miles really want to get fired? Why the stubbornness and unwillingess to adapt and change with the game? I don't get it.
I didn't watch. I wonder if he might consider retiring. He certainly doesn't need the money -- he's set for life.
My gawd! Where to start...he thinks the defense was great except on the 3 long TDs? And they fought hard? Really? Did anyone else see this or did they see a team that gave up? He talks about the mistakes and he promises to correct them, but they're the same mistakes we keep seeing week after week? Finally, he says the Ark defense was doing some things that they haven't seen before, but in the same breath, he says that they prepared for them. How can you prepare for something you haven't seen? Totally clueless, as usual.
Yep. Don't really have to watch them after a loss. Same ol same ol. We'll fix this. Quality opponent that.
