Don't LSU fans want to fire their coach who has like a 80% winning percentage

With O....still losing. Probably on probation.

Cutcliffe more than likely would have stepped down on his own before the 2005 season, when he started having that heart problem. He wasn't a recruiter. So we would have probably had several losing seasons after Eli.

I'm extremely happy for Cut and O but I'd pick Freeze over them every day of the week

Cuttcliff has his perfect job right now. No pressure on him just win 4 or 5 plus games a year and they will love him forever.

At a high pressure job in the sec or somewhere else his health problems could return

Happy for both of them, especially Cut. It's taken him five years to get Duke where they are. I wouldn't trade Freeze for anything, though. We probably wouldn't have him if we'd kept O or if Nutt had hired him as OC.

Well, they are still doing ok right now. It's good that their former coaches could go elsewhere and do good too. Pete Carroll didn't do well at his first head coaching job in the NFL either. A lot of coaches need that second chance to do well, because they learned from the first failure.

Cutcliffe lost to Texas tech and Memphis with Eli manning as a 5th year senior.

Coach O won maybe 3 SEC games and went 0-8 his last year.

He deserved to get fired for that. As well as all the off the field crap that happened with the team that season. That man was a PR nightmare especially in 2007. And I worked in the PR office during his time at Ole Miss.

Probably fighting each other over the microphone at the post-game pressers. It would be ugly....

He learned a TON from his time here. He ripped his shirt off in the first team meeting and had the team running plays in the parking lot of the hotel on game days. I bet he didn't do that his first day as USC's head coach. I bet he lets the players relax at the hotel too.

Ole Miss is a great job for development, and expect to see Nutt at UConn soon as well. As long as Freeze kicks arse here, so fricking what? This is only a positive thing for us, and unlike say Arky, we wish our former coaches the best, and most of them still alive are making us proud.

I wonder how many alarm clocks, telephones, towels, etc have gone missing from the hotels since he took over.

I listened to an interview of his on sports radio recently, and he's most certainly changed. He said that for that Friday, they weren't doing physical practice and were going to see a movie as a team together that night. He said he really relaxed from Kiffin's practice and knows the exercises that truly develop them, and has really developed the team in the way douchebag never has.

My fellow LSU fans do not seem to realize that LSU is #2 only to Bama - who is talked about as the greatest coach of all time?

Should have the 2011 Crystal by thumping OSU.

Had Bama backed up at the end of game in Death Valley at Night with 100 NFL players on D. Let them out. (Great drive by Bama btw - not knocking it - certainly a historic drive for your fans).

Pat Peterson Interception screw job.

and dealing with Florida through the hey day.

Had OSU gone to the Natty that is LSU.

Anyway you slice it last year was close as crap from LSU going again.

LSU and Bama are separated by a couple of plays and a bullshite rematch. A razor thin slice. With LSU having more wins over top teams (notre Dame doesnt count). Until this year of course. But 11 guys. Damn.

Thats how close Miles is to having what Saban has. I guarantee you Saban would say the same thing.

Its impossible to have done better then Miles has without being the dynasty.

Les Miles is awesome and a force. The recruiting is still flowing - all is good. The fans that hate Miles are simply unsound in the view of the game.

Miles is a bad arse.
