.770 winning percentage with two SEC titles and a nattie. Yeah, he really damaged that program.
He underachieved the latter half, but he left them loaded...except at QB. They’ve sucked at that position almost as bad as we have.
I miss Les.

I have never known another coach who took more crazy chances or capitalized on them. What happened to us in 2010 at home was insane.

He is a great recruiter.

:doh:

Smh

No... he was conservative as hell until the end of the game then became a gambler. Hell he made Butters look like an offensive innovator.

Im REALLY surprised Chimp hasnt offered him a job as OC. Perfect pair.

I'm talking about the legendary fourth down calls as well as calls at the end of the game. Don't tell me you've already forgotten.

Law, face it, if the coach doesn't sling the ball all over the field, he's shyt in your book. Doesn't even matter if he's a shyt coach period. Just move the ball vertically through the air. hypnotic-spiral-vector-18474189.jpeg

If he didn't run two yards and a cloud of dust.... he wouldn't have been in fourth down constantly.

He is a shyt coach. That is why no one has the slightest interest. Spurrier used to call him stupid in press conferences.

No one does Les with more.

Here's what I think of Miles. He recruited great athletes, his teams were consistently stout defensively and plodding offensively, though they always seemed to have big, athletic receivers who could go up and get the ball in traffic.

And he was piss poor at developing quarterbacks and running an offense.

We have had coaches with learning disabilities. You knew he was going to do a fake kick. He did it every time we played, and they would let him get away with it anyways.

I dont remember his receivers quite like you do, even when Billy G was there, but this part is absolutely true.

It is why he is unemployed.

Why would he want to be employed anyway?

The only real question is if Miles were born today, how many diagnoses would he have? It wasn't just at Lsu. One of my best friends is a Sooner, and I can remember watching his post Bedlam press conferences, wondering what the hell was wrong with this guy. How he made it this far and achieved some measure of success, with his glaring mental deficiencies, is a mind blowing.

Beer Commercial?? Spur Dog is doing beer commercials?? My god, doesn't the guy have enough money? You know he has the first dollar he ever earned!

Played golf with Steve 20 or so years ago at Gator Creek in Sarasota. Eight of us. Steve st up about six bets, won five and tried for five minutes to find a mistake on the guy that won number six."

Guy was a 19 handicap. Steve was a 7. Told the old guy he'd give him 7 strokes. Guy said "Steve, I went to Catholic school in Boston and where I come from 19-7 is 12. I'll take the 12. He won that one bet by 1 stroke and Steve was beside himself.

I was thinking the same thing considering they tossed him in the sh*tcan, twice, but had to say "just kidding" the first time. But as referenced above, this isn't real smack talk, this is advertising with them both in the same beer advertising campaign.

Dos Equis promises free beer for fans of winning team amid Les Miles, Steve Spurrier banter

Looks like Dos XX thinks the OL` Ball coach is going to win with more places offering free beer in the boooooooot

Man, you had to remind me. I still don't understand how the eff a player who is kneeling on the ground can legally throw a pass or lateral without even standing up first?
