well i suppose this is progress
the first few years, les was larry coker. now he's phillip fulmer. at this rate he is moving up the coaching ladder at a decent clip.

All flaming aside, there are some pretty striking similarities between Fulmer and Les.
- both are former OLs
- both inherited teams from HOF coaches
- both are very strong recruiters
- both have had john chavis as DC
- both have one bcsncg

Was Auburn 2-7 against Fulmer in their first 9 tries?

Auburn didn't play UT regularly after 92... PF won his first three against AU... Then lost his last five (I think)

Les Miles and Phillip Fulmer are a fair comparison. Les has not had a losing season yet though..
To be fair neither did Fulmer in his first 8 years in Knoxville

I've always thought that Miles and LSU has a "Charles McClendon" feel to it.
Difference being Cholly Mac never won a NC as head coach.
Fulmer had two losing seasons at Tennessee. I expect Miles to go after his second losing season as well.
Cholly Mac only had one in 18 seasons.

I'm listening to H2H Radio and Matt Wyatt just said that Les Miles and LSU has a "Phil Fulmer" feeling to it.
That is what you get for listening to a man on the radio that goes around feeling up other men

I sorta agree but...
Miles has better numbers so far.
Through his first 9 years, Cholly Mac had a 73.4% winning percentage -- good for 12th best in the nation just below Notre Dame. Amongst SEC teams, only Alabama won more games from 1962 to 1970. Tennessee, Ole Miss and Florida weren't far behind though.
During Miles' first 9 years, he has LSU at 3rd best winning percentage -- winning 79.8% of his games. Bama and Florida are also in the top 10.
The worry, of course, is about the next 9 years. Cholly Mac won only 65.2% of his games from 1971 to 1979 -- 26th best in the land over that time period. Oddly enough, that was still good enough for 2nd best in the SEC after Bama (they won a whopping 89.8% of their games between 1971 and 1979). Auburn and Tennessee were close behind LSU but no other SEC teams were able to win 60%+ of their games between 1971 and 1979.
Interdasting.

Recruiting Fournette
I'm for you making an argument that Les is doing well, but recruiting a kid from NOLA isn't all that hard.
