Tolstoy could have written War and Peace in a 100 pages but he didnt. Dont knock a guy with a gift for prose.

Being 4-0 is not special (same as last year)
Did we play 4 BCS schools to start last years season? Did we play 2 ranked teams in the first 4 weeks last season? Did we have one of the hardest schedules in the first 4 games of ANYONE else in college football?

You are obviously not a rocket scientist.

The statistical argument is laughable. Our schedule is much more difficult than many of the top ranked teams in the offensive categories. Yeah they've looked like crap at times but it's not like they were playing Miami of Ohio and Georgia state!

Maybe you should read some of the players quotes on the booing and then come back
The idiots on this board don't realize the players take the boo'ing personal. It is degrading to them and all the work and effort they have put in since the spring to prepare for this season. The ones that argue it is directed at the coaches have never played sports a day in their lives.

How many people had to go look up the word "Excoriating"?

We also have not played any of the teams we lost to last year in another .500 conference season. We will be there again if he doenst do something with the QB position. I dont care what it is. I would take more wild tiger or Lee. Les Miles has been a below average coach for two years now, and if he repeats it this year in the SEC conference games, this arguement is over.

mainstream to some for sure. us more mature guys see it for what it is; spoiled titty babies who take mommy and daddies money and then act like they are all-knowing. but, not all negatigers are in this category.

I would like to see Les do something different on offense, we can't be any worse. Wild Tiger or power I something In stead of having a WANT.

Second, your theonly one who likes Miles genius, get a clue.

Ask yourself this question Les Miles haters: Do you trust Joe Alleva to find a coach that can recruit and win games at the clip Les Miles has? If you can say yes without reservation to that one then you must work in the Athletic Department or you are a close relative of Joe’s. Because the likelihood of that happening in this unforgiving, headhunting conference is slim to none!


Take note, statistic-strewing Miles Apologists...this is your best argument for keeping Miles. The LSU administration's hiring record looks like the college coaching version of Antietam. I have to admit, as a proud "Negatiger," this is the one concern that gives me pause. Doubtless, there are better coaches than Miles. Doubtless, many would love a shot to recruit from and utilize talent from the fenced-in state of Louisiana. But who's to say that Alleva won't hire Mark Richt if Miles hits the road (on his own volition, or otherwise). I can hear it now: "We wanted a guy who had caoched at a major D-1 program, and who was respected as a college head coach by his peers, and Mark fits that bill." Awful.
