No but his recruits waxed that ass in Jan. Miles became the 1st coach in the BCS era to get shut out in a NC.
Derek Mason, with the talent in Louisiana, would probably work out well. He'd field a hell of a defense, no doubt.
12 games... 13 with a bowl game... You beat your cupcake OoC teams that's four wins. Beat the cellar dwellers that's four more. Get one more and you are batting .750 and are a hall of fame coach. Winning percentages mean less than championships.
I started missing Les Miles last year. Les Miles goes for it on fourth down, has awesome trick plays, and takes big risks. I don't know who this guy was who punted on 4th and 1, played for field position and never tried anything out of the ordinary. The Lesticles Era was so much fun. He must have gotten lesticular cancer and lost one.
