Every decision of consequence brings risk. It’s been suggested by some that LSU is making a tremendous risk by firing the most successful coach in school history because he’s regressed from great to merely good. Hell, it’s an idea I’ve proffered from time to time. There’s some logic to it. Miles finished at LSU with a .770 winning percentage overall. The list of coaches with a .750 winning percentage in college football history is pretty narrow. Names like Saban, Meyer, Osborne, Wilkinson, Hayes, Bryant, Switzer, Schembechler dot the list. Les remains a few percentage points shy on his overall coaching record, due to his tenure at Oklahoma State, but his time at LSU ranks.
