Yea, i agree good info. But every team has those ties as well. But they also have a instate rival who recruits against them.

Im not picking Auburn because Im a fan but look at what Chizik faces. He has a instate rival who is at the most storied football team in NCAA history. Top 3 recruiting class every year since he has been at Bama.

Then, he has plenty of the same type of ties as Miles. Im not saying Les does not have to recruit but I would bet he plucks 80% of the good talent in LA.... Not many other teams can do that.


He is a great guy and has a unreal winning percentage. But, as others have said about Chizik, he has good assistants and has been very lucky. Last year, you guys were ready to fire his arse. His incompetence has shown many times.. Just one or two plays that did not go his way over the past few years and he is unemployed..

That is not the sign of a great coach which is why I rate him like I do. Nothing against LSU.

Keep in mind that Bama and AU can recruit the panhandle of Florida and both have inroads to Georgia. LSU has its select recruits in LA that they offer and a few from MS, and a few more from TX. IMO, Bama and AU have more of a talent pool to select from.

Les is a really good coach that gets overlooked because he does quirky things. He's a top 5 coach in CFB. You would be hard pressed to name 5 guys better than Les Miles in CFB IMO.
