Since my thread was anchored, I'll post the counterargument here:

quote:
From 2010 - 2014, LSU won 10+ games in 4 out of the 5 seasons, won 1 SEC championship, and had one of the best seasons in college football history. This year, if the first game of the season had not been canceled, they'd be on pace for another likely 10 win season, although they still may get there even with the canceled game. Miles is 6-4 in bowl games including a win in the BCSCG and a win in the Sugar Bowl. LSU will have gone to a bowl game in each of Miles' 11 seasons at LSU.

So what exactly do LSU fans think they "deserve?" You guys think you should be winning the SEC and getting in the CFP at least once every three seasons? Good luck finding a coach who will be able to accomplish that goal in the SEC West. Saban does it, but there are no other Saban's out there to be had.

You guys really think your justified in paying $13M to fire Miles, probably pay some more to fire the assistants, and then take on a whole new payroll including paying $4M/year for a new coach? Wasn't LSU having budget issues?

Hell, before Alabama, I don't think you guys could be any happier. Now just because LSU loses 2 games against 2 of the toughest teams in college football everything has gone to shite? You aren't George Steinbrenner and LSU isn't the NY Yankees - you can't justify expecting championships every year.
