You called Les an idiot earlier in this thread. Do you really not remember?

Quote:

Mediocre overall record, yes. His final season, 9-2, was great, but the first four were very mediocre. However, he's won national titles at 2 schools where the previous coaches were abysmal and he had to re-build programs.

So is 34-24-1 at Michigan State somehow better than 28-21 at Oklahoma State?

Quote:

Not really. But I guess when you've never experienced 13-0 or 14-0, you have to have that mindset.

You're being really pretentious. Like you wouldn't claim it if it were at Alabama, or try to downgrade those players or that title. You don't have a problem claiming 1945 in your sig, or any of Bama's other dubious titles. Wasn't it the Bear who said he would claim the Tuscaloosa Laundromat Association as an NC if they voted Alabama #1?

Quote:

On Spurrier, his record with Florida in the 90s says enough. Throw in that he's got SOUTH CAROLINA as a pre-season pick to win their division a 2nd year in a row? S*** dude. They have 1 10-win season and before last season, had 1 championship of any sort(ACC 1969).

Sure what he did at Florida was great, but you said re: Les' record at Oklahoma State that mediocre was mediocre and it didn't matter where it was. But you're not being consistent with that re: other coaches as I've shown in this thread. That shows that you're just anti-Les and anti-LSU because of a personal grudge. You can deny it all you want but your inconsistencies give you away.

On another note, and this is a serious question, how can Spurrier and South Carolina now be upper tier in the SEC when Les and LSU had a better record than they did last year against a tougher division?

Quote:

We're 45-24 against LSU. That's ownage. Use your arbitrary time frames all you wish, but Alabama owns LSU. Hell, since you want to use time frames, you're 4-16 in the last 20 at Tiger Stadium against us.

That's great. If you were around 40-50 years ago when all that happened then awesome for you. I wasn't, so it really has no bearing on me. I'm 24 years old, and for as long as I've been old enough to be paying close attention, LSU has usually beaten Alabama, so that's my experience and all I really worry about. I'm not losing any sleep over what happened in the 1973 game that took place before my parents had even hit puberty.

Quote:

Doubtful.

It would have been an absolute travesty if a 12-1 Alabama team had been surpassed by a 12-0 TCU team. I SERIOUSLY doubt that would have happened, especially with many of the pundits saying a one loss Alabama team would still be a lock for the BCSCG after the South Carolina game. You know this is true, and you're just playing coy because it makes you uncomfortable to admit that LSU knocked you out of title contention, just like we did in 2005 and I'm sure we'll do again sometime soon.

Calling a coach an idiot is not the same as calling another OS member a jackass. Just keep that in mind for the future, if you last long.

You mind giving us a little more information into your seemingly personal relationship? I will say this about Les, I would really enjoy reading a Biography about him. Everything I have ever heard, seen or read tells me he's just not the best football mind. Not saying he's Steve Adazzio, but he's no Nick Saban.

#1 I didn't call him a jackass, I asked him if he was just being one because that statement was obviously a flame on his part.


#2 I worked in the athletic department part time in high school and college. I met Saban and Les a ton of times.

I would never take anything away from Saban as a coach, he's outstanding. But he's not perfect either and as we've seen, Les can stand toe to toe with him. They are both very very very different coaches and people. I'm not sure you can really compare them, although obviously Saban is more accomplished. I like Les on a personal level a LOT more, as Saban isn't exactly a people person. Personally, after having either Saban or Les coach my team for the last 12 years, I would not trade Les to have Saban back. Go ahead and bash me for that all you want but I'm in a unique position to make that statement.
