re: A Memo to Coach Les Miles - an appeal to show CHARACTER

post script for those on this rant missing the point: The reference to character is based on Miles SEEMINGLY making his decision based on performance. It relates to Miles selecting not to play Jarrett under any conditions, even the worse, which no one is really buying. It is not referencing the start of the game, the predominant playing by JJ for the majority of the game, it is based on the last quarter of the national championship game, when Les made it clear to the entire universe that he was not playing Lee under any circumstance in favor of staying with a Qb who was playing the worse game ever seen on such a stage. As such, no one believes that Miles was making that decision based on Lee's performance capability, so there is something else. This memo is asking for him to DEFEND HIS CHARACTER by giving some form of a reference to what it is, because NO ONE WITH ANY REASONABLE SENSE OF INTELLIGENCE BELIEVES THAT MILES PLAYED JJ OVER LEE IN THE 4TH QTR BECAUSE HE FELT JJ WOULD DO BETTER THAN LEE. Lee would have to be the most incapable QB in history to be unworthy of at least an attempt IN THIS SPECIFIC SCENARIO IN THE 4TH QTR. As such, we simply DO NOT BELIEVE LES MILES, and that is a character issue, plain and simple. HE can change that by coming up with some other statement to allow us to rule out character as an issue. Otherwise, many are left to wonder if sme form of petty personality issue was put above the entire LSU nation, and that is a character issue when he is paid to try to win the game, not to win some form of petty teenage like battle behind the scenes. SO, I am asking him to rule out that, and to make some form of a statement to the world. I don't think he will, as I state at the top, because I think he will hide in a shell and let time takes its course. He is a betting man, so perhaps that is his way. I think a man of true CHARACTER would MAN UP and find some way to tell the world something OTHER THAN PERFORMANCE as the reason why he did not play Lee IN THE 4TH QTR. There are ways to do such things. Anyone who has lived in a corporate or governmental organization for any lengnth of time has seen memos to such effect. He can get the entire Athletic and Communications departments at LSU to aid him in such a communication. If he does hide in vagueness, we are left to assume that petty personality issues are in-play. I am NOT saying this is what happened, but I am saying that he should find a way to make a case on something OTHER than performance, because no reasonable person is buying that. This is too important of a game and situation to hide in a corner. If he does that, then his character is all the more flawed.
