Last Season he beat 5 coaches who has won a National Championship.

I think you can all say Les Miles is the best Coach.

Here is my email to [link=(javascript:location.href='https://search.scout.com/a.z?s=451&p=4&c=1&search=1&sskey=%22' + escape('Richard Cirminiello') + '%22&sssiteid=451';)]Richard Cirminiello[/link]:

Dear “Dick Cornhollio”:



#1 Urban Meyer – I like how you conveniently left off his record at Florida over the last three years so that the average reader wouldn’t see what an “unconventional and a little kooky at times” kind of hack sports writer you are!



#1 Urban Meyer - 31-8 @ UF



#12 - Les Miles - 34-6 @ LSU



What’s the difference? Les Miles started his head coaching career in the Big 12 at a school that has traditionally been one of the whipping boys for the B-12’s southern division powerhouses of UT and OU. Have you ever heard the names of these two schools before?



Where as Urban Myer coached at Bowling Green and Utah…



Yeah, the Mountain West and Mid-American conferences are so comparable to the Big-12 aren’t they? Thus, comparing Miles head coaching record to Meyer’s, prior to their SEC careers, is bull-shite analysis and any objective person knows that your rankings suck!



The Mountain West is shite and BYU, when it won the NC – the conference's only claim to fame, it did not deserve it because they didn’t play anybody up until Michigan. If you need a reminder…here it is (1984 affirmative action NC):



LINK



The Mid-American conference is even worse than the Mountain West; it’s below shite…if that is possible.



But, opinions are like assholes and your opinion stinks like it was just freshly birthed!



And, yeah…I’m and LSU fan…



And, if you were to pick Urban Meyer in 2007 as your best coach…I would understand, but after last year…shear hackery at best!


Find a new day job and come up with some original analysis other than…Les Miles is a lucky, dumb gambler!

How ridiculous is Steve Spurrier at No. 11???

33-36 in the last 5 years as a head coach. Sounds impressive to me.

and i can kind of understand it, but flynn needed to settle the frick down. he was horrible early in that game


Let me get this straigt, you understand while he sticks with the starter, you feel he needed to settle down, he did in fact settle down, yet you still fault the HC......hmmmmm

Maybe he should have just predicted Flynns poor play and not played him at all, how could he have not known.

Of course not, he was horrible, but played a good second half....it happens, its sports. Not a new concept. So in fact, he did settle down. You just wanted it quicker?

So you pull a player for horrible performance, then expect to put him back in and pick up with stellar play? Why does the second half matter. A series is a series

Damn, arm chair quarterbacks such as you would want Les's nuts in a cup if he had done that and Flynn had had a bad drive.

That is the beauty of constant critique after the fact, you cant be wrong.

As an LSU fan, I don't think you ought to be dissing Steve Spurrier. He was 11-1 against you all while @ Florida. Although, I guess I can understand your angst.
