    I simply don’t understand why people are complaining about getting Miles, or looking at fewer big name coaches. When Saban came to LSU what had he done? He was a coach at Michigan State and was a coordinator for the Browns. I’d hardly say that he was a big name coach when he got here, but through the use of an amazing LSU program, was transformed into the hottest coaching name in football. I have no doubt in my mind that with the right help Miles can do the same thing. He was the big 12 coach of the year, ABOVE Stoops (who’s going for a national title again. I think that says plenty.

    Obviously, you forgot A LOT over the last five years. Saban was one of the hottest coaching prospects in the country. The big "knock" on Saban was that he would be gone within 3 years because the NFL was "all over him". We heard it from EVERYWHERE.

    You're not hearing ANY of this with respect to Miles. Hmmmmm...I wonder why???

    I agree in that Saban was a hot prospect when we hired him, but there were lots of question marks when he came here...More than just whether he would be gone in three years....

    Not sure where YOU'VE been, but you're a day late and a dollar short w/ these arguments. They've been hashed out 100x over the last few days. What's done is done, and in the words of our dear departed coach, it's time to move on.

    Maybe the reason you haven't heard it about Miles is that he hasn't had his agent out fishing for the next job ever since he became a head coach as did Nick Saban. Miles said that his ambition is to be the best college coach he can be.

    We got it ... let's celebrate ... Less Smiles

    No more championships

    No more BCS Bowl games

    No more Top Recruiting Classes

    Pull this post and ****can it ... I don't care ... but it won't change the facts

    LSU recruiting with Saban was headed for a Top 5 spot despite 18-20 spots

    All of you "in the dark" with those "Bigs Smiles" get the first taste of that "**** SANDWICH ...

    When Miles' first recruiting class won't even make the Top 25 ... and next year ... and the year after that ... and ...

    LSU will be fine.............

    Miami has lost 4 or 5 coaches in the last 20 years. LSU will reload and kick ass.

    I'll give this guy a fair shot before I flame him.......

    I'm glad you feel this way b/c you are ALWAYS WRONG ... so that must mean Miles will do really well at LSU!

    I'm sure you'll disappear when Miles proves you wrong .... guess that's a side benefit of hiring Miles! :hihi:
