"Hep" me out here. Didn't Auburn win the SEC Championship in 2017? Beating no #1 Alabama 26-14 & #2 Georgia 40-17? Hardware year... I don't recall E ever beating Alabama & Fat Ed is 0-6 against them Bammers. By 2011, Miles was beating Saban 3-2..then Louisiana politics happened over 1 game. As for Les' OLines, he developed 2 Jacobs Blocking Trophy winners at LSU. You dont do this in 1 year in the SEC without great OLine blocking: 1 - 3,000 passing 1-1, 500 rushing 2- 1,000+ yard WRs * First time this has ever been achieved in SEC History. LSU 2013.
He's absolutely correct. Saban ain't doing shit without being at the top football school in the South, without all of Alabama's money & without controlling three of the major fan recruiting services, & importantly, a cooperative AD. Plus other amenities. Need a Ref? Call: 888-FOR-BAMA Let's look back: Meeechigan State 1995-1999. (10x better than Kansas job) Saban's miracle MSU seasons. "Behold da bess damn corch dat eva done lived" 6-5-1 6-6 7-5 6-6 9-2 ( Did not coach Bowl game) Saban was 0-3 at Meeechigan State in Bowl games. Lost to Gerry DiNardo for one, in the Weedwhacker Bowl. MSU fans happy he didn't coach the 1999 Bowl. Saban'first Bowl win came in December 29, 2000...7 seasons into his corching career.
Miles did not build anything. He won, yes. But to build a program to where LSU was while he was here from nothing? He didn't build anything, he maintained it. He took the wrong directions in recruiting and that was just one reason he is gone. Kansas won't amount to squat during his tenure.
Your cheese is old & moldy. Build / Maintain, you don't know what these words even mean. Okie State just started winning on their own.. Miles recruiting failed him? Has last class was ranked #2 in the Nation dew drop. Ever heard of Devin White & Greedy Williams? Both in Miles last recruiting class. If that's failing I don't even want to know what you think winning is. https://247sports.com/college/lsu/Season/2016-Football/Commits/
You’re the one person who hasn’t figured out it’s a what have you done for me lately world. You bring up stats and records from 20 years thinking they’re relevant now. No one gives a shit who Saban lost to while at Michigan State...last time I checked he’s won a total of 6 Nat Championships, 5 in the last 9 years. Dispute that one!
If your living yearnby year like you think you are, why is it the IRS will toss your ass in prison for "Forgetting" to pay your income tax in 2010, assuming you work? History is important. Why so they keep showing that damn Billy Cannon Halloween Run on TV for every LSU/Ole Miss game? I don't dispute his NC's. You stick Saban's ass in Kansas, he ain't winning jack shit. Miles is trying to get them to 6 wins in the next few seasons. BTW, @CaryLab , you really love "Coach Sabes", don't you? No wonder Louisiana recruits do too.
