I can honestly say that your summation of my hatred of Les Miles originated from that Tennessee game. Although it wasn't for his Brittney Spears headset. Mostly because we blew a f'ing 20 point lead. But I digress.

What I hate now is the shear ineptitude of an Administration that said "frick it, let's just hire a bunch of old dudes and serve the fans some warmed over bullshite". I hated Les because Les really had a chance of not being a moron and failed, while Orgeron IS a moron with no chance of being anything better than a drunk coonass.

I hate Alleva right now way more than I hate O or hated Les.

O has not failed here. He has not fed some peoples delusional expectations, but he has not failed.


So has fulfilled any positive non delusional expectations? I am sorry but 10 wins at LSU is not a delusional expectation.

Hiring qualified coaches is another non delusional expectation.

Having a top 10 recruiting class is another non delusional expectation.

Exciting the fan base and wanting them to attend games is another non delusional expectation.

Knowing who the starting players is not another non delusional expectation.

Not meddling in the offense like you promised you wouldnt, when clearly this was your downfall in previous jobs is not a delusional expectation.


O has failed, face the facts and move on. lets give someone else a chance.

“Delusional expectations”?! Are you kidding me! If our expectations should be lower, then why fire Miles to begin with? Let him get us 9-4 and 8-5 and we’ll save all the buyout dollars.

I agree. He hired a highly qualified OC. That didn’t work out for all sorts of widely speculated reasons. But rather than spending a couple more seasons simmering in a lingering destructive feud, they both acted like grown ups and cut the relationship. I’d call that doing the hard thing decisively. You’d call it a fail. Fine.

He hired Ensminger. Good/Bad remains to be seen. Canada critics have been quick to point out that SE had better stats in 2016 than MC did in 2017. Qualified? SE has been on the staff a lot of years. He’s not been OC anywhere for a long time.

Will he be a flash in the pan? Doubtful.

Will he help stabilize and change a very weak QB development culture? Hopefully yes.

Can he get the job done in a steady, if not flashy manner? Most surely.

Will all LSU fans be satisfied? Not likely.

Have all LSU fans ever been satisfied with anyone or anything? Never.

So let’s chill and let things play out next season. It will quickly jell or unravel then.

There was way more in game criticism of Miles. Way more criticism of Ed in running the program.

What it comes down to is this is a gd joke. It may work out and we will all look stupid BUT there is no excusing Alleva’s lack of doing due diligence for finding coaches. It’s a damn charade and people are fed up. Then Orgeron, who should be kissing arse to have this job is going back on his word on a few big items.

How can you even compare Miles to O? As far as O not failing, what do you call this new OC experiment. He lied to us about getting the best coordinators and to me when you lie to me you have failed me.

100 years will pass and LSU fans will then say that Coach Les Miles was the best football HC that LSU ever had.

TRUTH.
