Saban is making us quit

And we're letting him. The fans pretty much hate Les Miles, his prized recruits are leaving early and there is a great deal of negative energy around the program.
By not letting this go, we aren't making things any better. I'm mad too and would love for someone to just give me all the answers. But I've had to reconcile with the fact that the past is the past and that Miles will have no choice but to learn from it. We'll all have to do the same so the sooner the better. Prolonging this is only making it worse.
So I urge the great posters of the greatest message board on the planet to not let Saban win. He can't make us quit.

this was a program defining loss. No way was espn and alabama/saban going to let lsu have the best season in ncaa history. When they had a chance to avenge thier loss and win a NC i knew we had a long shot at best. I don't even want to imagine the lengths at which was gone to for the season to end like it did. No we will not be the same and i that is why WAKE UP

Shep is the only one without a legit reason to go pro. The others will go in the top 50 picks.

And if we let go, Miles will not change
Threats to his job moved Malveto and Crowton. The success of this year allowed him a big "eff u" to the Tiger nation with regards to JJ
If he weathers this storm, as we all sing Kumbaya, just expect more of the same

do you think he will?
I dont

Players leaving early for the NFL to make millions is indicative of a "quitting" program?
Really?
Really?

I agree SiliconValleyTiger---let it go, it's done...the future is what matters now!

Fap, fap, fap, fap...

I expect Miles to resign anytime now and become Saban's lawn jockey and chaffeur.

This isn't about Saban winning anything it is about facing the fact we have a coward for a Head Coach. He quit.

Saban made Miles quit before the game started.
Most inept job of coaching talent I have ever seen. Pure incompetence.

This is not about Saban. This was about JJ. The entire last 3 years have been about JJ. It has always been JJ over the team and JJ over the Tiger Nation. Saban is good, but we never gave ourselves a chance in that game. Saban did make the team quit, Miles did in his irrational support of a very very very poor QB.

You can't go out on a national stage like that undefeated and lay a turd like we did. We were 13-0. At least act like you want to win. LSU is still going to be LSU and I firmly believe we will pick up again next year. A loss like that takes a while for a fanbase and team to get over.

Miles quit first. The players and fans are just following their Coach.
Posted on 1/13/12 at 8:29 am to siliconvalleytiger
No he is not.

"Us"?!

You gonna let a midget held together by hair gel and a smirk make you quit?
LSU is a pre-season #1, so the failure in the BCSCG should not eclipse the promise of the future. The great thing about the present is that you can focus on the future. That BCSCG was LAST season.

Who is quitting? I see some undergrads leaving early for the pros. But how do you improve on a perfect regular season? It's a great way to leave. Bama, on the other hand, had a blemish. They were convinced they were number one, yet got beat on their own home field. Had LSU won the BCSNC, most of those same players would have headed.
There does seem to be a lot of smoke surrounding certain not-so-well-described events before and immediately after the game which only provides a contagious environment for conspiracy viruses to spread. The criticisms of the offensive game plan seem legit, not just for this game, but for the whole year. As frustrating as that may be, it does not make people quit, especially following the only undefeated season of the year.
The only thing that makes people quit is when deep down inside they believe they are losers. Such a belief can be disguised when we have a winning season. But let us lose a game, and the mask comes off the non well differentiated few, and they are right back where they were. All the blaming in the world will not remove the irrational shame they carry believing themselves to be a loser. And what is worse, neither will a BCSNC.
LSU has a history of playing like we are underdogs. By conjuring up lots of emotion we might be able to pull off a few great upsets. But the pressure of being on the top has been too much for our low self worth to handle. That is, until Nick Saban came to coach.
Saban helped LSU see that they could win it all with Louisiana recruits. The belief that we could win it all became the greatest recruiting tool of all. Louisiana produces some of the best players in the country, and only second to Mississippi with per capita of players in the pros.
Superstitious people contribute too much power to Nick Saban. He is a great coach. He has a method that works, and he usually out works most everyone around him. But he is beatable. He lost to LSU this year. As sweet as crystal is, it cannot finally remove the sour taste of the loss at home.
The sooner LSU fans can release this loser mentality and embrace the good people that we really are, the sooner we will improve our attractiveness to the many talented recruits. When we do bring home the crystal, we will know it was not luck, nor because the other team "beat themselves." We will know that deep inside we are winners.
