Despite their lackluster performance in 2014, LSU’s 2015 campaign should produce different results as much pressure will be on the Tigers to win this season.
Some LSU fans have called for Miles’ head for a while now, which is dumb, because of his “poor game management skills”, but despite his poor game management skills, Miles has won double-digit games for four straight seasons until last season.
Miles also out-recruits most coaches in the SEC. Something about the guy screams attractive to recruits; it must be his inept ability to clap correctly or his grass-eating habits.
Furthermore, Miles has brought in three straight top five recruiting classes, according to 247Sports, and this season should produce good results because of it. If not, Miles could quickly find himself on the hot seat entering next season.

Head Coach, LSU
Les Miles is one of the better coaches in the SEC, but this season his Tigers will have high expectations, even after failing to win more than eight games a season ago.
Last season was Miles’ worst season as the Tigers’ head coach since 2008. LSU finished their 2014 campaign with a loss to Notre Dame in the Music City Bowl, and finished fourth in the SEC West, tied with Auburn and Texas A&M.
