Perspective of Les Miles from an LSU fan: -He was a fantastic recruiter (Retrospective: Hot Blondes will do that. I married a brunette, but I get that looks matter. Cite the Hooters Hiring Clause and tell detractors to pound sand) -He had a personality. That’s good considering a lot of coaches are utterly boring. -He was lucky (fantastic recruiting will give you that) -Exciting to watch (On one hand, could take #1 Alabama into Overtime. On the other, needed the largest comeback in school history to beat unranked Troy) -Horrible clock/last minute management. (2016 Auburn may have killed us, but there was Tennessee 2010, Ole Miss 2009, and a few end of game drives at home against Alabama, where a stop means a win) -The Offense. It was College Football’s equivalent of Jose Mourinho; park the bus and maybe we will get a goal and a win instead of a los. Utterly boring play calls (My Dad called it the R2P2 Offense. Run for 2, Run for 2, Pass for 2, Punt), with the occasional flashes of athletic brilliance. Clemson (Even Pre-Championship-Contender) beats a team 70-6, and we probably beat the same team 41-10 in an ugly game, and 14 of our points come from garbage time. 2019 LSU was a perfect example of what happens when the right coaching personnel are in place to extrude the best from their recruited talent. Les never had both.
There was something fun about Les when we’d get a team with some high flying offense and just grind them to a pulp with stone wall defense and a deep stable of running backs
Very focused and clear I like the R2P 2 classic and clever really stunning but not everybody sees it the way you do which is the way I see it also I’ve almost got in fights at parties before talking about how crummy less miles was, as usual I ended up the bad guy the big bad wolf for having an opinion
The main thing I remember is how he kept holding up LSU for new contracts before the old one was near being concluded and LSU foolishly giving him new contracts with huge buyouts as his results were diminished!
The one thing that Les experienced as a coach that usually dooms most longtime coaches is the law of diminishing returns. One you've used one philosophy, one gameplan, and one way of coaching for so long once you're found out it becomes easier and easier for teams to plan for you. People always talk about how Bama's coaching staff is gouged every single year but the silver lining in that is it forces adaptive thinking and the search for a new philosophy in the search of new voices for a new team each year. In Les's case he got too comfortable and quickly fell behind an SEC that was quickly changing from a traditional run heavy style where the game was won in the trenches to one that focused on more spread option passing attacks. Just look at the caliber of quarterbacks lsu fsced at the beginning of mile's tenure then at the end and you can see the difference. Then look at the quarterbacks Les himself fielded.
Your insight is very clear also it’s important to be able to adapt and change things during the game like at halftime are even before halftime if you’re on the ball run run pass punt ,run run pass punt get so old so quick, and he treated Jerrit Lee terribly as well after Jerrit went to Oregon and beat Oregon the first game of the year
As a LSU alum & fan.. his ‘’popularity’’ declined a lot in his last 3 years at LSU.. most fans grew tired of him and was ready for a fresh start. Also, when I was in school (from 2011-2014) there were rumors around campus of him cheating on his wife with some of the female students..

Miles has a big mansion of a home, millions of dollars and financially set for the rest of his life. Not to mention he has a national championship ring he can look at every day until his last. That's the kind of downfall I'd like to have.
Remember when we could all tell something was off (more than usual) with Les around 2011 onward...Should have been gone in 2013 as the AD requested. Any competent coach would have won the 2012 natty with the talent we had on that squad, even without a stellar QB (which Miles was never a good recruiter of QBs), the rest of that team was insanely good.
I think your views may have dipped from uploading multiple videos in a week. your most viewed videos have a week between them, plus it’s not football season. maybe you’re getting the bad end of the algorithm stick, love the channel been a sub for a while now keep up the hard work!!
As an ISU fan, I do feel pretty bad for Kansas. When they showed some spark in 2019, I remember thinking that Kansas getting better can only be a good thing for the Big 12 as a whole. Unfortunately, that spark has sputtered and died. I hope whoever they hire next can turn things around
Pooka Williams the running back from Louisiana was responsible for that spark the most dynamic running back I’ve ever seen in high school videos on RUclips highlights of his runs incredible ,Clyde Elaire was pretty damn good too but Pooka was a little bit better that guy from Ohio State going to Ohio State this year high school highlights are unreal also
I'm sorry that your numbers are down there Scott. I'm sure it's just because football season is over. Keep going your videos are very informative and I enjoy them and I will keep watching. Suggestion... there was some players that weren't tagged today and became free agents. Maybe pick the best free-agent right now in the NFL and do a College profile on him.
Just a note since I’m always dipping Less Miles in the grease he was an incredible recruiter he knew how to get the talent he just didn’t know what to do with it he took Pooka Williams with him to Kansas Pooka William was one of the most dynamic running backs I have ever seen in high school football he did well his first year at Kansas 1000 yards rushing but the second year teams were ready for him and he opted out this year due to the virus , I’m still pulling for Pooka to make it to the pros another Louisiana talent another great Louisiana talent just like Devante just like Leonard Fournett , Chase ,Justin Jefferson ,Lefell, Peterson, the honey badger Deion Jones ,White Odell Beckham and Jarvis Landry should’ve had record setting years at LSU Odell Beckham really funny , when he made it back to the locker room after the championship game, Odell Beckham could be productive and happy in Tampa Bay .
Don't speak for LSU fans since you obviously don't know what you're talking about. We weren't "shocked", we knew he was a sleezeball, and wanted him gone for YEARS before it actually happened
I've always liked him as a coach and I personally hope he gets another shot. I understand what Bobby Petrino did at Arkansas wasn't nearly as bad but he was given another opportunity

You should do a video on BYU's QB situation, they posted a video of a throw from their freshman QB, could he possibly win the starting job now that Zach Wilson is going to the NFL?
Imagine basing your opinion around the media’s opinion of a coach. They kept saying ten wins, ten wins. When you only look at wins and losses, it’s easy to think he’s a good coach but watching games tell a different story than the final score. Miles was fired from LSU because he was trash!! Unprepared for games, horrible clock management, stale offense and never had answers for why his team lost. Sure He won a natty but his success at LSU was clearly due to a roster full of talent that he wasted. Unfortunately for him, The game started to pass him and his 4 play offense by. Dude was quoted saying, you have to keep doing something until it works. Which is exactly what he did in the Bama game with Fournette. Completely screwed Fournette out of the heisman by being stubborn and continuously running him into a stacked box, basically a brick wall. I think 7 had something like 8 rushing yards after multiple carries by the end of the first half and Miles still didn’t get a clue. Dude was an idiot and is trash without a stacked roster. just take a look at his record at Kansas without the type of roster he had at LSU.
@@VudooChild it’s clear you are a fan. All I am saying, as someone who is not a fan of LSU, 10 wins a year is successful. Try being a fan of a program that hasn’t seen that success in a generation. Remember, not a lot of teams have beaten Alabama in the last 15 years. Probably should stay realistic with your expectations.
@@lowers1987 these expectations are based around the talent we get. If we’re recruiting at a high level, then the expectations to be able to compete and win are extremely high compared to if your team is at the bottom of recruiting. At LSU, Les had the players to compete with any team every year and he slowly started to piss it away.
lowers1987, 10 wins is nice but LSU couldn't win the ones that actually mattered (for the most part). Les was running an offense that better defensive teams like Bama just salivated at lining up against. His unwillingness to really change up the offense seemed to have doomed him as much as anything in the end. That's the root cause of him constantly losing to BAMA and some of the other better teams in the SEC.
That’s called LSU. It’s tough consistently being one of the top teams in the country and having to play Bama every damn year... along with the entire SEC West. It really does mean more. 🤷♀️
I like how this Les Miles smoke screen comes out from LSU when the heat was going to be turned up on Will Wade and Orgeron. No mentions of all the shady stuff that’s going on there now. Nicely done LSU. Well played.
Well done analysis and reporting. Very credible & fair from the perspective of a long-time LSU fan on his record at LSU! I lost track of Miles after he left. I didn't know the specific details of why KU fired him. I do now. Just wonder how egregious the allegations really were. I'm sure his contract had a "moral clause"....I'm wondering if KU saved a lot of money by digging this up? It's clear Miles didn't meet their expectations! Just asking?
What do you mean, "UNFORTUNATELY, LSU lost to Alabama."? LSU has almost always lost to Bama and always will lose to Bama. It's what makes the universe understandable.
He came in behind Saban and kept Saban's staff as he needed to have people in place. Through his 11 years, he went from a title contender to a mediocre program. Pitiful staffing ( picking old friends over more competent possibilities ). He didn't personally recruit, but left that to his DC and OC. His philosophy was if a team executes a play perfectly it will be successful. So a constantly stagnant offensive was blames on a lack of execution. My end came after we were defeated 20 -0 in a National Championship Game with Alabama. We had a 1st string QB who was struggling, and our 2nd string QB had played more than 6 games (6-0) and had brought us to the 1st in the country rating in both polls. He refused to switch QB's and, of course, we were embarrassed. Everyone asked him why he didn't switch QB's in the second half, and he said he would fully explain it in his weekly press conference. His explanation was the straw that broke everyone's back. " We thought we had a better chance at winning the game if we. stayed with our starter." Duh! Wow I hadn't thought of that as a possibility, nor had the other 500000 fans in Louisiana who closely follow the LSU program." That was when I realized what a dead stump Les had for a brain.
I was screaming “innocent until proven guilty” but then they parted ways. Either he’s guilty and they know it or they just don’t want this distraction to last. We’ll see though.
I was surprised they didnt fire him immediately after the season first. With a 3-18 record and 1 win in conference in 2 years, he should have been the FIRST coach out the door, scandal or no scandal
Les miles sucked at weekly gameplanning X’s and O’s but he was elite at talent development. How many 2 and 3 star guys became nfl starters after training at Lsu. His in game play calling was ok. But it was really just how fundamentally sound his Lsu teams were that made them good.
Tragic? He was this way, since his offensive line coaching days at Muchigan. He only allowed hot girls to room at his house and hit on all of them. Told them no boyfriends in the house--me being one of them.Oh, and he was engaged. So what, he coached...failed human being.
“To room at his house?” So he was renting rooms to female students in a house that he owned and also lived in while employed by the school? And nobody from the school told him that was inappropriate?
Yes. His house was a few hundred yards behind the Target off State. This was back in the early 90s. Creditors were also always calling. My guess is, Michigan must have heard about this or other problematic stuff, which is why they never hired him. He was a really creepy dude.The girls were not uofm students as far as I knew, but two were students. Now you know.
I agree. I think Miles is done. If you're Les Miles you don't take a job at Kansas unless you're winding down your career and just want to give it one last go at a school where no one really cares if you win anyway. It's not like he took it as a stepping stone to Texas or something.
A tragedy is when you get fired from your job and you don’t have 15 million in the bank and they don’t pay you off of $15 million I just wonder why the girls didn’t speak up when we were having problems with them anyway then why would you want to give a mediocre coach a contract extension run run pass punt run run pass punt run run pass punt you would think that eventually maybe you could do something different and treat your players fairly not reward players that have been out at the bar room getting in brawl , Nick Saban spent his time here turning the team around and making LSU great again Les Miles spent his time breaking down the team and making LSU crummy again even with all that talent Odell Beckham Jarvis Landry both on the same team we’re thrown to less than 53 times in a season, Jarvis Landry less than that because it’s important to establish the Run Run Pass Punt ideology from 1972 Michigan and some ,a lot , of people took up for him and made stupid excuses for him, then he was rewarded for mediocrity; every little bitty mistake I’ve ever made at a job I’ve been fired for right off the bat ,but somehow he got an extension contract I think when they won eight games by one point against teams that we should’ve been rolling over, frustrating , frustrating and now the girl comes up five years later !? and some people and administration knew about at that time , why not use that as leverage to fire him ? I'm no saint and I love beautiful and even half beautiful women , I hope that I would find a way to get my fix in a better way , I will say Les over achieved ,regardless of the past and all those crummy games i had to SUFFER through , I hope Les is taking all this with a grain of salt like he did with the media .
They beat Texas tech in the bowl game in 2015. A&M was 4 years into the sec by then & would have been literally impossible to play a division rival in a bowl game
This was so wrong! I have watched Lsu since the early 80s and Miles was the worst. He was gifted a loaded team from Saban and still lost 2 games in 07. The only coach in the bcs era to play for a title with 2 losses. I could go on and on. He did less with more than anyone.
What's the difference KU don't care about football they ran off a coach that got within a game of playing for the national title. Now if you could transform it into basketball on grass they might care. Sad thing is since they ran off Mangino and now had no choice with Miles they've become like K State in the 70s. If they can get in a young energetic coach with a personality and give him time they might be able to move into the middle of the big 12 but alumni are going to have to push for it and convince recruits they are going to build into contention. Don't hold your breath.
@@Nanu67-e9j let's see he had a decent record at Oklahoma State. He had a good record at LSU and was in the national title conversation a lot of the time. He goes to Kansas goes bust. How many coaches have gone to KU got frustrated, flopped, then left? KU DONT CARE ABOUT FOOTBALL!!!!! Why would any coach want the Kansas job unless they wanted a break from the pressure from the administration TO WIN. If a coach wants to win there the culture has to change. Miles didn't become a bad coach when he was there he was at a bad program. If Kansas cared about football they would have found a way to keep Mangino. He built a good base then they promptly broke it down. Don't blame miles because the program stinks.
@ Ya going 7 straight years of doing the same or better is something no one with the last name of Bryant, Stoops, or Saban have done. and taking OSU to a BCS bowl for the fist time and winning oh and his Cowboys FORCED a CFB PLAYOFF. Ya get rid of him LOL
@@Stiitchjones The 3rd or 4th Best B12 South team FILLED TO THE BRIM with B12 players went to the SEC and Handed Bama andLLLLLLLLL INTANTLY ON THE ROAD
I knew the Miles personally when I was growing up in Stillwater, Oklahoma. His daughter Smacker and I went to the same school and played soccer together for like 5 years. Les was always a creep when he'd come around, it was pretty well known that he was a sleeze bag around the community.
Kansas needs a local guy to build and give that coach 7-8 years to get the ball rolling. With transfers available everywhere and a juco farm system in Kansas this is do-able, just not easy.
“Star defensive coordinator Bo Polini”. 😂 Great defensive coordinators don’t let Kentucky and Arkansas take you to triple OT. LSU beat Texas Tech in the bowl game for the 2015 season not Texas A&M, because A&M was a member of the SEC as you mentioned just minutes earlier in the video. Perhaps gaffs like these and ones like claiming Garret Gilbert went to Lake Austin high school is why your views are going down. And it’s is pronounced Less not Lez.
And everything else was free also can you imagine all the people that go hungry in the city and he gets to walk away with 15 million oh 0h Ho Hum,and never looked back
People acted shocked that Les miles was like that but trust me that happens at every program. They very rarely hire unattractive women in the football department especially in recruiting
Was not a frivolous scandal that got him fired but he aged out; that with coming off a winless season. Happened to Paterno, Eddie Robinson, Bowden, ect. Saban has 2 mediocre years and you will see the same thing.
Les stopped being a great coach around 2013 when he became too rigid to change his offensive style. He did just about what I expected him to do at Kansas 2-18. He was fun to talk football with; but was out of date offensively. I never knew about his female situations. Feel very bad for his family, it has to be very embarrassing for them. Some famous / successful people get caught up in their own ego trap, maybe he can work his way out of his.
At Kansas, Les didn't seem like he was all there. He seemed different and slower. Like maybe cognitive decline. I wonder if it started the second half of his LSU tenure.
WTF? It speaks to his character. If you’ll cheat on your wife with your boss’s wife, that speaks volumes about his character. Not to mention Gary Moeller wasn’t JUST his boss, but he was also his friend. But them again he is “A Michigan Man”.
What coach should I do next?
Mike Gundy
Mike price. From wazzu to Tuscaloosa. Partied too hard and eventually led to the hiring of Saban
I'd like to see a video about What Happened to Matt Leinart. or What Happened to Tyrone Prothro.
Mike norvell from Florida State
Do a video on the 2007 college football upsets
KU should just say screw it and hire that coach who never punts.
hahah
The coach that never punts is really good though but he is going to be trash at closing close games

2011 was the peak of what a les miles lsu team could be and even then their offensive gameplan was straight out of 1995
I went to about 95% of the games during this mans tenure and this is very accurate.

With some of the stories I’ve heard from players about Les Miles I think it’s a good thing he’s not coaching anymore
It’s not tragic. What’s tragic is LSU decided money was more important than firing him for cause...

... and his reputation? What's that worth ?
Not at the cost of my reputation
Yea, he has a championship ring, thanks to the residual effect of his predecessor nick sabin. Look how his record started declining after three years.
Not an LSU fan but he was one of my favorite coaches....but my opinion has changed now.
Remember when we could all tell something was off (more than usual) with Les around 2011 onward...Should have been gone in 2013 as the AD requested.

As an ISU fan, I do feel pretty bad for Kansas. When they showed some spark in 2019, I remember thinking that Kansas getting better can only be a good thing for the Big 12 as a whole. Unfortunately, that spark has sputtered and died. I hope whoever they hire next can turn things around
Pooka Williams the running back from Louisiana was responsible for that spark the most dynamic running back I’ve ever seen in high school videos on RUclips highlights of his runs incredible ,Clyde Elaire was pretty damn good too but Pooka was a little bit better that guy from Ohio State going to Ohio State this year high school highlights are unreal also
I'm sorry that your numbers are down there Scott. I'm sure it's just because football season is over. Keep going your videos are very informative and I enjoy them and I will keep watching.
Suggestion... there was some players that weren't tagged today and became free agents. Maybe pick the best free-agent right now in the NFL and do a College profile on him.
Thank you so much man! And great idea, let me look at a list!
Just a note since I’m always dipping Less Miles in the grease he was an incredible recruiter he knew how to get the talent he just didn’t know what to do with it he took Pooka Williams with him to Kansas Pooka William was one of the most dynamic running backs I have ever seen in high school football he did well his first year at Kansas 1000 yards rushing but the second year teams were ready for him and he opted out this year due to the virus , I’m still pulling for Pooka to make it to the pros another Louisiana talent another great Louisiana talent just like Devante just like Leonard Fournett , Chase ,Justin Jefferson ,Lefell, Peterson, the honey badger Deion Jones ,White
Odell Beckham and Jarvis Landry should’ve had record setting years at LSU Odell Beckham really funny , when he made it back to the locker room after the championship game, Odell Beckham could be productive and happy in Tampa Bay .
Don't speak for LSU fans since you obviously don't know what you're talking about. We weren't "shocked", we knew he was a sleezeball, and wanted him gone for YEARS before it actually happened
Yo amazing video
Will Les Miles ever coach another game?
I've always liked him as a coach and I personally hope he gets another shot. I understand what Bobby Petrino did at Arkansas wasn't nearly as bad but he was given another opportunity
Nope and hes on the downside of his coaching career..didnt win at Kansas and his last years @ LSU weren't that good either
@@jserv9421 except that national championship.........lol
But I guess I generally agree.
Probably some shitshow program in C-USA or Vandy.
Do not focus on making content for views. Focus on making great content and the views will come as your channel continues to grow. Add value to the audience and things will improve with time.
You should do a video on BYU's QB situation, they posted a video of a throw from their freshman QB, could he possibly win the starting job now that Zach Wilson is going to the NFL?
let me look into it!
@@ScottFisherCFB The video they posted was on their instagram page, keep up the great content!
Kansas was looking for an excuse to fire him and the allegations gave them their reason, he was terrible
Imagine consistently winning 10 games per year and being on the hot seat.
Imagine basing your opinion around the media’s opinion of a coach. They kept saying ten wins, ten wins. When you only look at wins and losses, it’s easy to think he’s a good coach but watching games tell a different story than the final score. Miles was fired from LSU because he was trash!! Unprepared for games, horrible clock management, stale offense and never had answers for why his team lost. Sure He won a natty but his success at LSU was clearly due to a roster full of talent that he wasted. Unfortunately for him, The game started to pass him and his 4 play offense by. Dude was quoted saying, you have to keep doing something until it works. Which is exactly what he did in the Bama game with Fournette. Completely screwed Fournette out of the heisman by being stubborn and continuously running him into a stacked box, basically a brick wall. I think 7 had something like 8 rushing yards after multiple carries by the end of the first half and Miles still didn’t get a clue. Dude was an idiot and is trash without a stacked roster. just take a look at his record at Kansas without the type of roster he had at LSU.
@@VudooChild it’s clear you are a fan. All I am saying, as someone who is not a fan of LSU, 10 wins a year is successful. Try being a fan of a program that hasn’t seen that success in a generation. Remember, not a lot of teams have beaten Alabama in the last 15 years. Probably should stay realistic with your expectations.
@@lowers1987 these expectations are based around the talent we get. If we’re recruiting at a high level, then the expectations to be able to compete and win are extremely high compared to if your team is at the bottom of recruiting. At LSU, Les had the players to compete with any team every year and he slowly started to piss it away.
lowers1987, 10 wins is nice but LSU couldn't win the ones that actually mattered (for the most part). Les was running an offense that better defensive teams like Bama just salivated at lining up against. His unwillingness to really change up the offense seemed to have doomed him as much as anything in the end. That's the root cause of him constantly losing to BAMA and some of the other better teams in the SEC.
That’s called LSU. It’s tough consistently being one of the top teams in the country and having to play Bama every damn year... along with the entire SEC West. It really does mean more. 🤷♀️
As a lifelong Kansas fan... This sucks. Didn't think we could get lower than we've been
rock bottom
Love these long style videos! Another cool coach video would be Ralph Friedgen
Great suggestion!
Hope you get around to the Bobby Petrino era at Arkansas. Especially the 2011 season it was hot🔥🔥
Will never be a head coach again in college but financially set for the rest of his life
He should've been fired from LSU much sooner. GEAUX TIGERS!
I like how this Les Miles smoke screen comes out from LSU when the heat was going to be turned up on Will Wade and Orgeron. No mentions of all the shady stuff that’s going on there now. Nicely done LSU. Well played.
I have family who are LSU fans.
Now we have McMahon and Kelly and the best AD in college athletics.
@@markjohnson9455What is your point?
Well done analysis and reporting. Very credible & fair from the perspective of a long-time LSU fan on his record at LSU! I lost track of Miles after he left. I didn't know the specific details of why KU fired him. I do now. Just wonder how egregious the allegations really were. I'm sure his contract had a "moral clause"....I'm wondering if KU saved a lot of money by digging this up? It's clear Miles didn't meet their expectations! Just asking?
You put a lot of work into this video!Great job!Geaux Tigers 🐯
What do you mean, "UNFORTUNATELY, LSU lost to Alabama."? LSU has almost always lost to Bama and always will lose to Bama. It's what makes the universe understandable.
Man i’ve been asking for a vid on matt painter since March 2020😫😫😫
When painter makes a final four, I’ll make it haha
He came in behind Saban and kept Saban's staff as he needed to have people in place. Through his 11 years, he went from a title contender to a mediocre program. Pitiful staffing ( picking old friends over more competent possibilities ). He didn't personally recruit, but left that to his DC and OC. His philosophy was if a team executes a play perfectly it will be successful. So a constantly stagnant offensive was blames on a lack of execution. My end came after we were defeated 20 -0 in a National Championship Game with Alabama. We had a 1st string QB who was struggling, and our 2nd string QB had played more than 6 games (6-0) and had brought us to the 1st in the country rating in both polls. He refused to switch QB's and, of course, we were embarrassed. Everyone asked him why he didn't switch QB's in the second half, and he said he would fully explain it in his weekly press conference. His explanation was the straw that broke everyone's back. " We thought we had a better chance at winning the game if we. stayed with our starter." Duh! Wow I hadn't thought of that as a possibility, nor had the other 500000 fans in Louisiana who closely follow the LSU program." That was when I realized what a dead stump Les had for a brain.
I was screaming “innocent until proven guilty” but then they parted ways. Either he’s guilty and they know it or they just don’t want this distraction to last. We’ll see though.
I hope he is innocent. You can't trust anyone anymore, especially when the accusing people never get backlash if they are proven to be liars
@@garrettcoleman3200 #PointExactly
Dope. Keep it up.
ayyy!
Less football wise never wanted to adapt on offense, the other stuff i don't know about
I was surprised they didnt fire him immediately after the season first. With a 3-18 record and 1 win in conference in 2 years, he should have been the FIRST coach out the door, scandal or no scandal
its Kansas tho lol
@@ScottFisherCFB touche lol
Why was he hired in the first place ?
@@jerrylanglois7892 probably because of his success at LSU. Kansas was probably desperate
@@jpinon403 literally anything is better than David Beaty
Les miles sucked at weekly gameplanning X’s and O’s but he was elite at talent development. How many 2 and 3 star guys became nfl starters after training at Lsu. His in game play calling was ok. But it was really just how fundamentally sound his Lsu teams were that made them good.
As a Jayhawks fan, this video will be painful
Lol! Les looks like the Sensei from Karate Kid in that pic of him and Jamarcus Russell. He's probably telling Russell right there to sweep the leg.
Lmao who Kreese?
Yep. Look at that smirk on his face.
In college Les was known for well
being nasty with the ladies
Tragic? He was this way, since his offensive line coaching days at Muchigan. He only allowed hot girls to room at his house and hit on all of them. Told them no boyfriends in the house--me being one of them.Oh, and he was engaged. So what, he coached...failed human being.
“To room at his house?” So he was renting rooms to female students in a house that he owned and also lived in while employed by the school? And nobody from the school told him that was inappropriate?
Yes. His house was a few hundred yards behind the Target off State. This was back in the early 90s. Creditors were also always calling. My guess is, Michigan must have heard about this or other problematic stuff, which is why they never hired him. He was a really creepy dude.The girls were not uofm students as far as I knew, but two were students. Now you know.
Do a video on jimmy clausen (the kid with the golden arm)
That could be a good one
Good job.
5:24 star... i know he was good but i was not alive for the 07 season so all i know is 2020, not a star.
I don't really believe Les Miles will get another head coaching job. I don't even know if he wants it. He is 67, he doesn't have much left in him.
I agree. I think Miles is done. If you're Les Miles you don't take a job at Kansas unless you're winding down your career and just want to give it one last go at a school where no one really cares if you win anyway. It's not like he took it as a stepping stone to Texas or something.
A tragedy is when you get fired from your job and you don’t have 15 million in the bank and they don’t pay you off of $15 million I just wonder why the girls didn’t speak up when we were having problems with them anyway then why would you want to give a mediocre coach a contract extension run run pass punt run run pass punt run run pass punt you would think that eventually maybe you could do something different and treat your players fairly not reward players that have been out at the bar room getting in brawl , Nick Saban spent his time here turning the team around and making LSU great again Les Miles spent his time breaking down the team and making LSU crummy again even with all that talent Odell Beckham Jarvis Landry both on the same team we’re thrown to less than 53 times in a season, Jarvis Landry less than that because it’s important to establish the Run Run Pass Punt ideology from 1972 Michigan and some ,a lot , of people took up for him and made stupid excuses for him, then he was rewarded for mediocrity; every little bitty mistake I’ve ever made at a job I’ve been fired for right off the bat ,but somehow he got an extension contract I think when they won eight games by one point against teams that we should’ve been rolling over, frustrating , frustrating and now the girl comes up five years later !? and some people and administration knew about at that time , why not use that as leverage to fire him ? I'm no saint and I love beautiful and even half beautiful women , I hope that I would find a way to get my fix in a better way , I will say Les over achieved ,regardless of the past and all those crummy games i had to SUFFER through , I hope Les is taking all this with a grain of salt like he did with the media .
They beat Texas tech in the bowl game in 2015. A&M was 4 years into the sec by then & would have been literally impossible to play a division rival in a bowl game
This was so wrong! I have watched Lsu since the early 80s and Miles was the worst. He was gifted a loaded team from Saban and still lost 2 games in 07. The only coach in the bcs era to play for a title with 2 losses. I could go on and on. He did less with more than anyone.
Thus, his name. His name is Les ... not more.
Females alleging things these days should be taken with a grain of salt
Les Miles will NEVER be a Head Coach again. He’s done and he should be done after his off the field conduct.
Do Mike leach and talk about the issue at Texas tech
I want to do a Downfall of Texas Tech video
im a FSU fan and i had to go back and check and LSU played UF in 2012 not FSU but its alright dude really good vid
Yep haha
What's the difference KU don't care about football they ran off a coach that got within a game of playing for the national title. Now if you could transform it into basketball on grass they might care. Sad thing is since they ran off Mangino and now had no choice with Miles they've become like K State in the 70s. If they can get in a young energetic coach with a personality and give him time they might be able to move into the middle of the big 12 but alumni are going to have to push for it and convince recruits they are going to build into contention. Don't hold your breath.
Les Miles is not a good coach.. very overrated.. Kansas got a better replacement with Lance Leipold..
@@Nanu67-e9j let's see he had a decent record at Oklahoma State. He had a good record at LSU and was in the national title conversation a lot of the time. He goes to Kansas goes bust. How many coaches have gone to KU got frustrated, flopped, then left? KU DONT CARE ABOUT FOOTBALL!!!!! Why would any coach want the Kansas job unless they wanted a break from the pressure from the administration TO WIN. If a coach wants to win there the culture has to change. Miles didn't become a bad coach when he was there he was at a bad program. If Kansas cared about football they would have found a way to keep Mangino. He built a good base then they promptly broke it down. Don't blame miles because the program stinks.
He had to leave Michigan because he had an affair with Head Coach Gary Moeller’s wife.
FACTS!
😯😯
Sure that was bad. However, was there any sexual assault involved?
No? Then WTF?
That 2011 Bama team was way better than 2011 Oklahoma State any day of the week.
Thank You!
But its cool since he never beat Nick after that!
Do a review of coach Bill Snyder of KSU. COACH of Century.
Yes, Snyder did a great job in pulling Kansas State out of the abyss. However, Snyder won many, many, MANY games against weak opponents.
I love Les "than average" Miles. He gave us "The MAN" Mike Gundy.
Gundy's probably about to get the axe himself.
@ Ya going 7 straight years of doing the same or better is something no one with the last name of Bryant, Stoops, or Saban have done. and taking OSU to a BCS bowl for the fist time and winning oh and his Cowboys FORCED a CFB PLAYOFF. Ya get rid of him LOL
Gundy knows offense but a weird duck...he wouldn't be doing as good if he was in the SEC.
@@Stiitchjones The 3rd or 4th Best B12 South team FILLED TO THE BRIM with B12 players went to the SEC and Handed Bama andLLLLLLLLL INTANTLY ON THE ROAD
I knew the Miles personally when I was growing up in Stillwater, Oklahoma. His daughter Smacker and I went to the same school and played soccer together for like 5 years. Les was always a creep when he'd come around, it was pretty well known that he was a sleeze bag around the community.
Kansas needs a local guy to build and give that coach 7-8 years to get the ball rolling. With transfers available everywhere and a juco farm system in Kansas this is do-able, just not easy.
They need to bring back Mangino!
@@ScottFisherCFB Kansas got lance Leipold he's slowly improving the program.. Les Miles was a horrible hire though..
Were the misbehavior charges fully proven?
Do a mike price video! Rise and fall rise and fall lol
Good idea!
Please
miss you coach
haha
I guess he was eating more than just grass.
Steak and lobster at any New York or Chicago restaurant he wanted to
@@ljbull33 hes saying he was eating grass and ass
Great information on this video!
As a Bama fan my mind always goes to 2 things: that amazing fake field goal (against Florida?) and eating grass
“Star defensive coordinator Bo Polini”. 😂 Great defensive coordinators don’t let Kentucky and Arkansas take you to triple OT. LSU beat Texas Tech in the bowl game for the 2015 season not Texas A&M, because A&M was a member of the SEC as you mentioned just minutes earlier in the video. Perhaps gaffs like these and ones like claiming Garret Gilbert went to Lake Austin high school is why your views are going down. And it’s is pronounced Less not Lez.
Jayhawks pretending like they didn't know when they hired him..so they could fire him with cause and not have to pay...LOL!!!
honestly could see them trying to hire the Coastal Carolina coach
When you get a better mic I will turn the bell on
Bobby Petrino has a job Les is fine
wow haha
But the NCAA is going to punish LSU and the people who were not there during Miles time. Miles gets a free ride.
And everything else was free also can you imagine all the people that go hungry in the city and he gets to walk away with 15 million oh 0h Ho Hum,and never looked back
Do ray drew UGA, former 5 star
let me look into him!
People acted shocked that Les miles was like that but trust me that happens at every program. They very rarely hire unattractive women in the football department especially in recruiting
Was not a frivolous scandal that got him fired but he aged out; that with coming off a winless season. Happened to Paterno, Eddie Robinson, Bowden, ect. Saban has 2 mediocre years and you will see the same thing.
hey look a michigan hire/lack off that they got right
A true man of god
Let me guess: he'll be spending more time with his family.
Kathy Miles is too weak to leave him. Sad.
Video starts at 13:00
I know another Leslie that had a not-so good relationship with women...
oh my
I love Coach Les
lsu only won the regular season game over BAMA because of a bad call. the national championship game setteled that 21 to 0 ROLL TIDE !!!
I’m a Kansas fan and help me
Lol
He left Oklahoma State after swearing he was staying!
I believe that was karma that came back and but him in the ass. At least we have Mike Gundy!
When you have a job do it. Don't mess around. The money should be good.
He did it to himself. But, he was a helluva recruiter though. Enjoy your early retirement mad hatter.
Les stopped being a great coach around 2013 when he became too rigid to change his offensive style. He did just about
what I expected him to do at Kansas 2-18. He was fun to talk football with; but was out of date offensively.
I never knew about his female situations. Feel very bad for his family, it has to be very embarrassing for them.
Some famous / successful people get caught up in their own ego trap, maybe he can work his way out of his.
At Kansas, Les didn't seem like he was all there. He seemed different and slower. Like maybe cognitive decline.
I wonder if it started the second half of his LSU tenure.
WTF? It speaks to his character. If you’ll cheat on your wife with your boss’s wife, that speaks volumes about his character. Not to mention Gary Moeller wasn’t JUST his boss, but he was also his friend. But them again he is “A Michigan Man”.
