Les would be at least as good at Alabama as Saban, I suspect. And a hell of a lot easier to deal with.
This is ridiculous. Saban is the best coach in college, but sustaining success is almost as tough as building a program from scratch. Miles deserves more credit than he will ever get, but with the volatility of LSU fans he's going to be bashed no matter what.

That's because LSU fans will always compare his success to Nick Saban's. He won a national title, but a lot of people love to argue that he did it with Nick Saban's recruits and that he backed into the title game with an unprecedented two losses. Another factor that Miles has going against him is the fact that his best team ever got shut out in the BCS National Championship Game.
His record at LSU is impeccable, but most people seem to think he has underachieved with the amount of talent he has brought into the program.

You agree with me or not?
