I think it's funny, but at the same time, it's pretty ridiculous and awkward.

People keep using the same excuse over and over again like "Why doesn't he just answer the question??!! Why is he starting Jefferson??!! This wouldn't happen if he'd answer the question!!"

Miles doesn't have to answer anything and owes nothing to any measly fan.....because remember, that's what you are........

He doesn't even give the media, the people that get paid to find out, a straight answer as to why he starts Jefferson.

People act like they deserve answers after acting the way they do.

prominentwon, you can check my history. i'm not a negative guy and have defended miles more than most.

With the above said. you are totally wrong. Without the fan, there is no les miles at lsu, there isn't lsu football.

he doesn't owe the fan's his scheme, his strategy, his game plan, ect. (it's his job to win games for the fans who pay the salary. they want a champion)

he does owe the fan's a straight answer/reason for his continued decision to play a guy who hasn't performed as well as the other guy, which appears to go against what is best for the team/program.

there isn't a logical reason why a less performing player is playing above a performing player.

It makes me nervous that he may be more interested in his own agenda, whatever that may be, (a new contract, a f you to the people that have questioned him/pay his salary, or whatever,) than he is interested in what is best for his players, the team, the program, and yes the fans.

with that said, i hope j.j. go's out there and scores 6 t.d.'s in the game. I just don't have any basis to believe this will happen due to the prior 7 games.

I don't know why you have such a low opinion of yourself and the rest of us but last time I checked the "measly fans" pay a good chunk of Les' 3.8 million salary considering his payroll from LSU is around 350K. I don't see why asking a legitimate question about our QBs backed up with stats is so horrible. None of the people asked for next weeks game plan just asked why has and why, when you look at the stats, does he continue to start the lesser of the two QBs which is just trying to understand the thought process. Hell, at this point, it seems like it is doing more harm to JJ than good to keep starting him because he seems to be losing confidence with each mistake maybe he needs a chance to sit and collect himself for a game or two to get his confidence back because chances are we will need him at some point in the season especially if, god forbid, Lee gets injured.
