He actually fascinates me. When you really sit down and break down the numbers across the board, what Miles has done is truly astounding. For instance, Miles has covered the spread in only 26 of his 84 wins at LSU. His team lost the yardage battle in 31 of those wins (one of the most mind-boggling stats ever IMO) and lost the turnover battle in 20 of them (also amazing). His team has had a go-ahead score in the final two minutes 18 times.
The guy is a true enigma. He clearly doesnt coach up to the level of his talent (by comparison, Saban has covered the spread nearly 70% of the time at LSU and Bama) but his teams routinely find miraculous ways to pull out games in which they either played poorly, were outplayed or simply had no business winning.
That's our Leslie.
