LSU is 4-7 in SEC West over last 2 years. I'll take our chances to improve on that

I know, I see now, we will be lucky to win 1 conference game without miles. ONOZ! What will we do? lose I guess.

What will be funny is when Miles stays and all this hoopla will be for nothing. Oh well. At least the bamafans are entertaining.

Miles staying would be great for College Football.
I also think Miles leaving would be great for the SEC West, depending on where he lands.

Good luck with your internet and radio rumors. If it had only been that easy for Texas last year... Oh? Jimmy Sexton?? You don't say...???

Looks like he has wins over some really bad Florida teams, an average USCe team, and a squeaker over Auburn.
That's fair, but UF is a rivalry game and going 4-1 is always a nice accomplishment in that rivalry. LSU squeaked by the 2010 UF team in the final seconds on a fake field goal (go figure) that we had to catch off a bounce. FSU beat that same team 31-7 in Jimbo's first year.
Also, that 2010 South Carolina team was really inconsistent, but they spanked #1 Bama by 14.
As for the squeaker against Auburn...when you squeak by to win your 14th game to go to 14-0 and win a NC, nobody cares how close it was. The object is to win big games and national championship games are supposed to be close because it's the two best teams playing.

What's even more baffling, is this hope that LSU fans that if Fisher comes, he'll be able to beat Saban head to head more than Miles' has.
So "hope" is baffling? It's really not just about Bama. Of course LSU wants to beat Bama, but Bama will still be who they are and very tough to beat. The chances might get a little better if they landed Jimbo, but you have to be realistic.
It's not just Bama beating LSU pretty good. Miles is 6-5 against Arkansas and has been blown out two years in a row by them. The last three games have started out 10-0, 17-0 and 24-0 before LSU ever scored a point. That is pathetic and there is no excuse for it.
LSU fans want to see a team that looks like it's in this century on offense. They want to see someone on the sidelines acting like it matters. They want a coach who can make adjustments when his original plan is clearly not working. Most of all, they want to see an offense that is not completely predictable and boring. Miles has had a great run, but things do change sometimes.

what happens when you cut it to the last 4 years?
Miles winning %:
.762 - last 5 years
.714 - last 4 years
.694 - last 3 years
.652 - last 2 years
.583 - 2015, potentially
Notice any sort of a trend?

Take out 13-1 in the 5th year. Since Miles shite the bed, and honestly lost the fan base on 1/9, he's 35-14.

But but but... return on investment, man!

Les beat the same SEC team that Jimbo did in the BCSCG. Jimbo is a younger, immoral version of Les. Good coach yes, but if you fire Les you get s better coach than Jimbo.

Probably after the 2nd game next season

Interestingly Stoops in not on the hot seat but Les is. Bob doesn't coach in a tough conference.

Yes, the players are softer but just as talented. That's on the coach no doubt but it's fixable and not a five year rebuilding effort.

BW(Before Winston) most FSU fans wanted Jimbo fired because he would consistently lose to some random shitty ACC team, even though he fielded one of the most talented rosters. Now that he's AW; he's doing the same shite again.
Not saying he's not a good coach, just like Miles, but I don't think he's at the Urban Meyer/Saban level.

Looks right, Miles looks like the worst coach of all of them.
