re: Are SEC West foes glad Miles was retained?

Yes. This is because a hire would have gone 1 of 2 ways. Either LSU would have a coach who utilized the talent LSU has and LSU would be harder to beat or LSU would hire a complete frickup who weakens the program to the point that beating LSU loses value. I want someone who can keep LSU as a power program we can consistently beat and Les is the guy.
