Well, what do you do with the guy?
I posted this a few weeks ago, and it still stands:
This is the Miles enigma. Like it or not, Nebraska may be stuck with him for a few years. Barring complete collapse, he'll be back next year (how do you fire him with a senior laden team coming back?). Next year sets up to be a marque year, nearly a lock for a NCAA bid. You can't fire him after that. Then the youth movement comes in, back to the bottom of the B1G as he as shown he can't coach a young team up. Miles is good for a competitive team every 3-4 years. Unfortunately, we are coming up on that cycle.
Lest Palmer and Copeland leave, this is a NCAA team next year (if not, he's fired). Then you have to keep Miles for 2019-20, and back to square one: Young team, young talent, and whatever other excuses have been parlayed for Miles the last 6 years (injuries, transfers, etc)
