Miles was asked in a recent interview why his team was so good on the road. His response was " because their a damn good football team". Good job coach!
....there he goes again! I like hearing that from Miles; reminiscent of something he said it in 2007.
I've always liked Coach Miles. I'm happy to see that the negative opinions of him are weakening more and more. Of course, winning consistently helps with that. He will be our legendary coach. But, remember, even legendary coaches have down years. If our "down" years were '08 and '09, that's better than most coaches.
Very well said, you took a lot of words out of my mouth. Les is an exceptional class act, and you're right the players absolutely adore him because he treats them well. He isn't grabbing facemasks and jumping down guys throats when the screw up on the field. He handles it in a more calm and professional manner, and guess what he is one of the absolute best coaches at developing players. So, his approach is working. I think the way he handles the players and coaches will go a long way in maintaining LSU's status as a premier program in this country. I would not want any other person representing our school, and I too hope that he stays around until he is ready to retire. As a matter of fact if there was ever a real chance that he was going to leave I would start a "Save Les" fund.
