lester the jester is a helluva' lot better football coach than he gets credit for being....the dumbshit stuff he does,he does on purpose,just like casey stengal and yogi berra used to do...stengal and berra were two of the best baseball minds to ever hit the diamond,but you would never know it by the stuff they said...all three of these "wacko's" are and were very intelligent men

I dont know what in the high frick you're talking about old man. My argument, from the very beginning, was that les miles inherited more talent than nick saban.

Not one single time did I say saban inherited a bad team. I said Les miles inherited a team full of good football players.

Half of you act like you don't know what the word more means. I said he inherited more and the Lsu fans got their panties in a wad. Saban had josh reed so boom! Yea whoopty fricking do. Les miles inherited a better team than nick saban. That's what I said, that's what the truth is, like it or not

it damn sure wasn't the talent that resulted in that record. why do you think dinardo got canned? ever heard of lou tepper? teams get demoralized and mail it in. look what arkansas has done the last 2 games. i know you worship saban as a god and that is your right; but you really aren't knowedgable about LSU football. you just assume we were garbage before saban arrived. i have been watching LSU football for 50 frickin' years.

what does corch have to do with osu fans saying they wouldn't take miles for some unstated reasons?

Somebody asking me this led to Corch being in my reply

I never claimed to be an lsu football historian. If you had compehended the post rather than seeing red and going into defense mode you would have realized that I asked a question.

since riseupfromthebubble has lost his stupid arguement and won't admit it, i would like to comment on your post. did you see yogi on the tim mccarver show the other day? he's still got it! to listen to him is a treat. read his book and the recent one ron guidry put out; yogi (and casey too) were slick as they come.

UM was the coach that beat the ever loving shite out of us in a NC game against tSEC.

Uhh, Les did that too bruh.

No. Miles beat our arse too, but not nearly to the extent of Urbs.
Urbs beat the shite out of a highly touted, heisman led team.

Miles got to compete against a Boeckman led, horribly overrated team that lucked its way into the BCSNCG with a soft schedule. If I remember correctly, we were ranked 11th with like 2 or 3 weeks left in the season and got lucky enough for EVERY team ahead of us to lose in that span.

2006 tOSU would have beaten 07 Badly. As would 05.

I think riseup is trying to say Miles inherited more depth than Saban.

Granddad is saying Saban inherited some of the best that ever played at LSU, since some that he inherited still hold records.

either way

i am glad that you finally gave up your other points and settled on one. i am not going to argue that one. hell, i'll just give it to you. either way, saban is one hell of a coach and so is miles. now, you need to go back and review LSU football history. just because you don't know much about it doesn't make it irrelevant. most of it may have occured before you were born.

Oh I know, I was just busting your balls with that comment. It's not like lsu is auburn or anything. My knowledge of lsu before the 90's consists of a billy cannon punt return against ole miss in '58 and bama winning in BR for 3 straight decades

i didn't see it but i would have loved to...yogi and casey were great for baseball and les is great for college football....i try to hear him everytime i can....les miles is far from the buffoon that he portrays....he knows exactly what he is doing and i really think sits and thinks these things up beforehand...i respect the hell out of him

that's what that tells you? If saban wanted to move him, then saban would have moved him. I considered taking a shite before my shower this morning, but decided to wait until after my cup of coffee


What it tells me is you were and are speaking of ignorance. It isn't your fault you have no idea who was on 2000-2001 LSU squads, I really just want you to quit acting like you do. You were wrong, are wrong, and insist on persisting in being wrong. Let it go. LSU people know more about their own team than you do. That shouldn't shock you.


ETA: I caught up and saw you give it up on knowing who actually played for 2000-2001 LSU and Saban finding Josh Reed out of nowhere. I'll leave the Bama history to you if you leave the LSU history to people that follow the team.

loser talk. losers like to view others as lucky, have an easier road, etc, etc. it'a a ego defense mechanism to cover up real or imagined shortcomings. c'mon dude, man up! face your situation and don't worry about others. just sayin'




everyone knows all the coaches at LSU have been successful. There's nothing to it. A cave man could do it.


As an LSU fan, I for one, am excited at the prospect of always being a top 5 program from now until the end of time. After Lord SABAN blessed us in 2000 by winding our football world up like a top and spinning us into a perpetual infinite elite football loop, it wouldn't matter if freaking Mike the Tiger was our coach, we would be dominant.

Now that I mention it, we should just save the 4-5 million we are wasting on Miles every year and just bring Mike on down on the side lines. We could do the "food test" with him to see what plays we would run and everything. I mean, it really doesn't matter who is running the show, LSU runs on its on right? Ok maybe not Mike, (he may get full by halftime), better yet, we could bring JLS down from Fayetteville and pay him 800 k a year and everything would stay the same right? I mean that's what everybody is telling us? An idiot could run this football factory, let's give a literal football idiot a crack at this sucker and play the thing out.

There is that segment of our fanbase that should have this tattooed on their forehead. In the end it doesn't matter what those outside think, I'll take CLM over anyone, including Saban. But also I don't think CLM should be overly praised for that 4 year stretch since ultimately, he is responsible for recruiting and staff hires. Yes RP hosed up the team but not having anyone besides him and Crowton as OC has to rest on Mile's shoulders. That being said, the fanbase ought not be surprised at the teams success with a better QB coach, better OC and better QB's. Time will give a better perspective but I'm optimistic that the faithful will look back and say 'that 2008-2011 run was pretty good after all, all things considered'.
