disliked Miles until this weekend. I was at the beach in Gulf Shores with my golf group and we are sitting in chairs when a super nice gentleman came up to us and said he was from Lake Charles and wanted to congratulate us on our win (a couple of us had Bama hats on). We talked more about Lake Charles and the oil spill than football until his grandson came up who is in the 4th grade. We asked him if he was going to play football when he got older and he said he wanted to play at LSU. Of course we said he should consider coming to Bama and play for coach Saban. This kid said if Saban is still there then he would much rather play for Saban than Miles. His father (who supposedly played for LSU in the past) must have been talking about Saban and Miles.
We cracked up and his grandfather just laughed. They are super people as most LSU fans are when you talk to them face to face.

As opposed to the phone.

I don't really think that one dude with his grandson on the beach and about 30 or 40 posters on a message board = the entire Tiger Nation.

A 9 or 10 year old kid speaks for the LSU Nation?

So two people speak for all LSU fans?
Don't worry Saban won't still be there.

I think most LSU fans are between a rock and a hard place on Miles. We want to like him. We want to have complete faith in his abilities and not doubt him or second guess what goes on behind closed doors or under that hat of his. The reality of the situation is that Miles is probably the most upstanding coach in the SEC as a person. (Maybe second to Richt; I hear he's a good man as well.)
Unfortunately "nice" and "upstanding" do not necessarily mean squat when it comes to head coaching abilities. So I wouldn't say we hate Miles; we like him in so much that he is a great person with values and integrity; but the catch is that he isn't the best coach. Any LSU fan who argues otherwise is just in denial.
