What percentage of LSU still think he's the man for the job and will get things turned around and start winning championships again?

judging by this board I'd say he's lost about 90% of it

I'm embarrassed now to say I was fully backing him until 6:15 on Saturday evening.

FWIW, I think there is a difference between "losing the fan base" and "fans that believe we can get it turned around and win championships"

I support Miles and think (and hope) that we are still on solid footing as a program.

Nonetheless, after Saturday, I certainly now have my doubts about that happening and winning championships under Miles in the future.

But to say that he has "lost me" would not be true. I will support him as long as he is LSU's coach. If we don't win the SEC West in 2010, then I think it will be safe to say that he has lost me.

About 70% of it. He never had the other 30.

this board is a very (i.e extremely) small percentage of fans are are mostly extremist. I think 99.99% of LSU fans are extremely pissed but can understand that things will be fixed .... if not, these thing get corrected in due time (one way or another)

He lost the un-true fans, not the faithful!This board sucks! you bunch of whinning idiots!! 90% of you are not true fans. People make mistakes, stand by your team, stand by your coach. Bitching, crying, and complaining isn't going to fix anything. Get a grip! you can't
un-ring a bell!!

Just to let everybody know this is only maybe 15-20% of LSU's fan base.

Everybody (that's EVERYBODY) I talked to since Saturday lost confidence in the guy. And yes, we all still are behind the team. That will never change. But nobody is behind the coach anymore.

I just think it is hilarious to see how retarded all of the people on this board really are...we have been trying to point out how much of a Moron LM is, but all we would get in return is "He's got a better record at LSU than Saban did", "He brought us to a BCSNCG just two years ago", "Blah, Blah, Blah." I do not understand why you all are so surprised at his poor clock management. He has NEVER been able to manage the clock. HOW MANY F'N TIMES HAS HE LET 1:30 RUN OUT BEFORE HALF WITH LSU NEEDING ONLY ABOUT 60 YDS TO GET A TD??? NOT EVEN A TRY FOR A FIELD GOAL??? HOW MANY TIMES PEOPLE??? He has done this in almost every other game! I do not see why you are surprised now I am glad, however, that you have all FINALLY jumped off the DAMN fence.

I support Coach Miles and still think he's a great HEAD Coach. He made a mistake with the kick team this past week but do yall really think we would have got people lined up on time anyway? Probably not. He recruits as good as any coach in the country and we don't have a ton of player misconduct. That is what a head coach watches over. He's also made some great hires since he's been here in Bo Pelini and John Chavis. All you people remember is his mistake last year. I want Crowton gone but in 2007 that hire by Miles single handedly won a NC for us. There is no way our offense should have averaged 40+ points a game that year. Now however I want Crowton out. Miles is a great coach who makes mistakes like any other coach does. Not saying its ok, but it was a learning experience for him which I can promise he won't let happen again.

No, only the idiots who hated him from the get go.
Are fans pissed by his head up the arse showing last Saturday? Of course. Is he the first coach to pull a boneheaded stunt like that? No, not even close. See genius Belichik the previous weekend v the Colts. Stupid decisions are not the exclusive property of LM.

I was never a MILES fan. I will admit, he has taken longer to lose people than I thought.

Les is NOT more.
