Les Miles: Idiot or genius?

After watching LSU for the third time in recent weeks, I began to wonder if LSU wins because of or in spite of Les Miles coaching.

The call at the end of the Auburn game very well could have cost them the game if the guy doesnt catch the ball. At the end of the Florida game, he went for it on 4th down inside the 10 when a field goal would have sent the game to overtime. Continuously inserting the backup QB in critical situations and killing his team momentum. Last but not least, 4 straight inside runs against Kentucky in the last overtime resulting in the loss.

I beleive that LSU is probably the most talented team in the SEC and that they win in spite of Les Miles. What an idiot!!

Re: Les Miles: Idiot or genius?

If they lose, he's an idiot. If they win, he the most gutsy coach on the planet who has complete confidence in the physical talent and mental toughness in each and every one of his players.

Re: Les Miles: Idiot or genius?

As long as he stays brain-damaged for two more weeks, I'm OK with him. Truthfully, I'm beginning to think its more overactive ego than intellectual deficiency that's behind his questionable calls.

I cannot STAND Les Miles. He is one of those people that makes me just want to walk up to him and slap the crap out of him. He is so full of arrogance...he makes Steve Spurrier look human. I hope Michigan comes calling!!!

They stole that victory from Auburn. I really hope the Tide can serve some revenge back to them. As if you don't need more motivation, here's the hottest selling shirt in Baton Rouge right now:

Re: Les Miles: Idiot or genius?

After the Gator win I thought he had the biggest balls in college football. But what he did this weekend was just stupid. But hey, it worked for him.

Re: Les Miles: Idiot or genius?

Les Miles is starting to remind me of Steve Spurrier in each passing game. His body language is exactly the same!

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways ackowledge Him and He shall direct your paths.

Proverbs 3:5-6 NKJV

Re: Les Miles: Idiot or genius?

Iam sorry y'all don't like my COACH LES MILES, but we do, just like y'all like Saban and Tubbervile(sp). But he likes to see if we can get the job done and it has worked. Next year, he will
probably go to Michigan. GEAUX LSU TIGERS, COACH LES MILES, AND ALL OF THE COACHES AT LSU.

Re: Les Miles: Idiot or genius?

I am an unbiased opinion from the west coast, I am a Cal fan and from what ive seen Les Miles is nothing but an arrogant piece of $hit, did anyone see the interview after the game. He acted like he was insulted when the reporter said "you cut that one close on time". If the reciever bobbles the ball or even drops it the game is over and all you LSU fans would hate Les Miles. Saban is the one who built that program anyway, you LSU fans should know that, he took you to a national championship. LSU is the most talented around but you have a coach that can possibly lose you a game single handidly.
