So? Everyone with a brain knew that Lee wasn't going to play this year.

What did you expect. Before he signs, you give him the old "if you perform well in practice and show you are better than who we have now, you will have a chance to start" routine. After signing, the truth comes out.

What did you expect? No one actually thought Lee was going to be competing for the statrting position. Miles was playing the game and trying to keep Lee here.

Hey I hope he's right, but that's pretty bold after what he originally said.Posted on 8/18/10 at 11:59 am to WHATASHAME
So he answers a question about how a freshman QB is doing and gives the press some positive input. What's he supposed to say.

Les was giving support to Lee in hopes he would stay. Now, he's trying to show that LSU is in no worse shape without him.
Also, Les is probably trying to show support of the guys we have at quarterback now, since their confidence isn't exactly spectacular

I thought "Miles was gushing" about him. What happened to that part?

In other words, Miles was playing the game, just like Lee ... nothing more, nothing less.

QUOTE OF THE NIGHT I: "This opportunity was just too difficult to pass up."
--- LSU football coach Les Miles as told to the LSU sports information office minutes after Zach Lee became a Dodger late Monday night. Sports information offices tend to clean up coaches' and players' comments and make them sound better. In reality, the $5.25 million opportunity may have left Lee with a difficult decision to make. It was not a "difficult" opportunity.
QUOTE OF THE NIGHT II: "I always dread when opportunities come, because they're so difficult. If we'd just get rid of all opportunities, life wouldn't be as difficult as it is."
--- A sportswriter from another publication minutes after Miles' comments circulated.
Snarky comment. Akin to calling someone out for misusing the word irony or a typo on a message board. Worthy of a punch to the face. Guilbeau really is a dick.

Has he had brain damage? A stroke? Seriously, I am not trying to be funny, but if anyone who I knew or who worked with me spoke that way, I would think that he had mental problems.

Gilbeau made no sense in that article.

When asked if Lee would have basically been slated for "mop-up" duty behind Jefferson and Lee, who both have struggled at the position the last two years, Miles agreed. "Yeah, it was going to be the back end of the game," he said.
Dude i have read so many articles on this. Media is full of shite and takes things out of context. He never said lee will see time in the back end of games. He said the 3rd string qb will. The 3rd string qb will only see garbage time. Most schools the 3rd string qb doesnt even get to see that.
