7-4
10-2
9-3
4-7
3-8

Keeping Les is just as much a risk as moving on.

I know it's the "status quo" so people have a hard time thinking of maintaining it as a "risk", but that's exactly what it is. Tennessee and Texas held on to their Les Miles' too long and it cost them big time.

Iron Bowl upcoming...LSU on their mind.

Wait...wasn't Miles the coach that "could only win with Saban's players?" Now, "LSU should be laughed at" for getting rid of him? Unable to make up our minds, are we?

Gumps wonder why they're the most ridiculed fan base on the planet.

I've started plenty of Auburn threads. Even had a couple whacked because people are bitches.

This doesn't have anything to do with Bama fans. This is all LSU.

But you go right ahead and keep overlooking those numbers in the OP, and keep pretending that your next hire will come close to matching it.

I would respect LSU for ditching him. Little chance Miles wins a championship and if you aren't playing for championships what's the point. Hell, even Aubrin has proven they can win a championship, no reason for LSU not to try for it. Sure, they can go 6-6 for a few years but at least they will be giving a championship a shot.

Sounds like you're trying to spin because you got called on your stupidity.

Sorry for the punch to your vagina. Hopefully, Vagasil will take care of it.

Interesting that I'm "trying to spin", and yet you still haven't addressed any of the factual, concrete information in the OP - but would rather fiddle faddle and play tiddly winks over my supposed stupidity.

Les Miles won't come close to matching it going forward from today. It's time for a change. Sorry we are getting rid of your auto win gumps

Factual, concrete info: Miles is 19-12 in conference since 2011. 6 of those 12 losses have been by at least 3 scores. Les Miles is 5-5 against Bert, Gus, and Freeze in the last 3 years. LSU is the most penalized team in the SEC despite playing one less game than the rest of the conference.
Tell me with a straight goddamn face that Les can win another conference title at LSU.

Here is the concrete information

do you think LSU players are coached to their maximum potential?

DO you think LSU has handled QB recruiting well?

Every team in the SEC is an "Auto-win" for us if we're basing it on what we've done against LSU.

Arkansas 9-0
Auburn 5-3
Georgia 3-1
Florida 4-1
Kentucky 3-0
LSU 7-3
Ole Miss 7-2
Mississippi State 8-1
Missouri 2-0
Tennessee 9-0
Texas A&M 3-1
South Carolina 1-1
Vanderbilt 2-0

Compared to who? Alabama? No... but neither has anyone else coached their team to maximum potential.

Recruiting? Absolutely. Development? Not even close.

Is that grounds for firing the winningest coach in school history?

You don't have to ignore it. It doesn't change the fact that we're 7-2 against them. It is what it is.
