knapplc Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 @jwinslow7 Josh Winslow @ AP_Top25 LSU's Les Miles is AP coach of the year, got 30 of 56 votes. Snyder (16), Gundy (6), Hoke (3), Kiffin (1) How Granny Snyder doesn't win this is beyond me. 2010 LSU record: 11-2 vs the #15 SOS 2011 LSU record: 13-0 vs. the #16 SOS 2010 KSU record: 7-6 vs. the #61 SOS 2011 KSU record: 10-2 vs. the #10 SOS I'm just saying that if you improve your W/L by three games while going up 51 spots in your SOS, I think that merits a little more consideration than Miles' coaching gig. Give Snyder LSU and all the perks and recruiting and he'd be unstoppable. Quote Link to comment
Excel Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Topeka radio jesters were whining about this earlier but I have to agree with them. People knew Miles was going to do well. Snyder's K-State came out of nowhere. Quote Link to comment
Captain Hindsight Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 The job Snyder did this year was leaps and bounds beyond what Miles did. LSU is LOADED. Quote Link to comment
NUance Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 No doubt. Sure, Les Miles achievement was amazing. Like climbing Mount Everest. But the job Bill Snyder did this year was more like pulling a rickshaw full of cinderblocks up Mount Everest. Quote Link to comment
strigori Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 And some LSU fans will be calling for his head after a couple nail-biting wins and a loss next year... Quote Link to comment
Treand3 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Congrats to Les but it should have gone to someone else, probably Snyder like others have mentioned. Miles is a beneficiary of outstanding local talent and lax SEC recruiting standards. Quote Link to comment
husker_hurdler Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Who voted for Kiffin? (and why?) Quote Link to comment
Notre Dame Joe Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Miles deserves it for going an entire year wihtout any Les Miles Moments. Quote Link to comment
Landomatic Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 And some LSU fans will be calling for his head after a couple nail-biting wins and a loss next year... Yep...that's what top-tier, national championship caliber programs do. Keep the bar high, baby!! Quote Link to comment
