Ask me how I know you don't really follow LSU football that closely...

Yeah and in 2016 we will do better than we did in 2012 because we have a defense that is actually worth a damn.

The OP spouted some BS that was mostly his opinions. A dozen LSU posters have claimed numerical facts that are untrue. So you would be wrong in that regard.

it should concern you that kevin sumlin couldn't beat les miles even once.

When we joined the SEC our President called it "The 100 Year Decision". We all knew what that meant. We ALL expected that it would take at best seven (7) and more probably ten (10) years for us to become competitive in SEC football. If GOD had told us all in 2012 that we would not beat LSU for the first four (4) years then we ALL would have said, "Duh."

The fact is that we HAVE been competitive EVERY year thus far. And we are looking better right this minute than ever.

We'll see you Thanksgiving night.

No you haven't. Aggy hasn't had a good defense since 2010.

You don't know jack squat on this subject, or you're just being an arse.

And Kevin Sumlin has fired one offensive and two defensive coordinators in his short tenure at A&M


nope

On offense he lost Kingsbury to Tech, promoted Clarence McKinney to OC then demoted him back to RB coach, and Jake Spavital "mutually parted ways" once he knew he could catch on at Cal. So technically he didn't fire anyone.

On defense he fired Mark Snyder who came to A&M from South Florida when Sumlin wasn't able to pry Pat Narduzzi away from Michigan State. (likely due to A&M brass not willing to pay enough) Snyder was replaced w/Chavis.

Obviously you don't know jack about The Texas Aggies.

Probably you haven't left the peanut farm since going to Nashville with your grandparents when you were five.

"Better type of man"? Did he not lie to at least one of those fancy 5 star QB's over playing time/starting? If not both? Did he not enable Johnny Football? Want to compare how CLM would have handled that selfish jerk of a college player? And CLM just eats TS grass. Sumlin gets his kicks out of a bottle/s. And has a pool boy. ClM does not have a pool boy.

I know all I need to know. Johnny Manziel was a transcendent college football player that Sumlin rode as far as he could.

Both are good coaches, with some strengths and weaknesses. Miles is more relevant because he has won Championships, though he has coached at a better more prominent program with bigger recruiting advantages. Not even close there really.

To Sumlin's credit he made some adjustments that seem to be working. Hardly the only coach to adapt though, just recently Charlie Strong, Saban as many others in the past have done. Not all succeed while changing it has to be said. Now Miles is stubborn no doubt and he paid for it.
