re: Les Miles is a better coach than Bobby Petrino

I have no problem saying that.

No defense or running game, the same all of his teams have shown.

i think you might have missed

RUSHING Cl G Att. Yards Avg. TD Long Avg/G
1. Cam Newton-AU JR 11 206 1297 6.3 17 71 117.9
2. M. Lattimore-SC FR 10 209 1066 5.1 17 58 106.6
3. Knile Davis-AR SO 11 148 1031 7.0 12 71 93.7

IMO Petrino is one of the greatest offensive minds and one of the best football coaches in the nation. He knows more about the game of football and each players assignment than most other coaches even try to concentrate on. If you watch his coaches show then he explains scheme and assignements better than any other coach I have ever seen.

Atlanta with Micheal Vick not going to prison and with Bobby Petrino as coach would be Super Bowl champions by now. He knew the cards were stacked against him once Vick went to prison. So, he ducked out before they would have fired him and then he would have had to have taken a MSU or Texas A&M type of job.

We love Bobby Petrino and hope he wants to stay as long as he wants in order to get our program to the next level. When he moves on it will be because he is ready and wants to not because we ran him off.

Louisiana is a talent rich state, to say that Petrino couldn't get the kids there is stupid, these kids want to play at LSU.

Then why did we suck so damn bad from the period of, oh i dont know, charlie mac's retirement to nick saban's arrival?

The coach has to be able to recruit.

fair enough

Petrino's bringing in a Top 15-20 class for the 2nd time in 3 years. Year one was nothing but patchwork to retain some of Nutt's kids.

If he can do that here, he can do that or better anywhere else.

The better question is can Les Miles bring in two top 15-20 classes in three years to northwest Arkansas. I have my doubts.

Les is one of the greatest recruiting head coaches in the country. To try to argue differently is pretty stupid.

You're a complete failure.

LSU, as I have said, is a talent rich state. If you don't recruit in the top 10 then you have epic fail written all over you.

20 years of LSU mediocre say you need a good recruiting head coach brah.

If the great classes are coming to play simply because of Miles and the school has nothing to do with it, I assume Miles was bringing in top ten classes at OK State too?

But since this thread is about the better coach, its Petrino and the original flamer and everyone that has posted in this thread knows that

Ok Arkansas isn't shitty anymore but IMO a lot of coaches could have done that.

And a lot of coaches could've walked into a team with Addai, Bowe, Dorsey, Landry, Hester, and I don't know who all and lost less than 6 games in their first 3 years but that's neither here nor there. Who all do you think could have come in after 2007 and had Arkansas at an equal or better position to where we are now? Do you really think Miles could?
