Miles doesn't want them televised

He doesn't want anyone seeing anything the offense is doing

We lost to Clemson. That's what you get.

I'm ok with it not being televised. Just not exciting enough. Could impress recruits attending though. That's about it.

This....the last one they televised was prior to the '11 season. Craig James and the PBP guy railed on how bad JJ looked. He didn't look good all spring and was like 4-14 in the spring game. Les would rather fly under the radar than have the media start to scrutinize his qb for the whole summer leading up to the season.

If it wasnt so hot, I would go. I have other things to do like scratching my balls all day.

I must be in the minority by thinking spring games are terrible.

Ur not, but i live in br so ill be there. Prob wouldnt if we didnt have cam.

Also most coaches prob would prefer to not have one. They are prob more concerened with the recruits that will be in town.

I assume you have no idea how this works. If there is no live feed, how can espn3 broadcast it? Do you really think espn sends a production crew and announcers to all those games listed on espn3?

First, people don't watch 3 loss teams who lose 11 underclass men to the draft play a spring game.

Second nobody that isn't an lsu fan is watching anyway.

I always go to the game. So the TV thing is unimportant to me. I like seeing the new players on the field. It is hot and uncomfortable. But I work outdoors so I am used to it. Sorry to hear how many wusses there are out there.

We got a lot of covereage last year and did little with it as I recall. The whining on here was substantial.

Because: #1- LSU is going to fall off this year after losing so much talent to the NFL.
#2- LSU only has 20 to 30 thousand fans show up for it's spring game where as Bama has close to 100 thousand show up for theirs.

Oh, and ESPN hates LSU.
