Yeah, the horse has been beaten, but this is a pretty good summary of the whole ordeal, and the consequences of indecision (and deceit, I guess) on Miles' part.

I got a kick out of that

Does not mean jack shite to Miles if his QB decision "dooms" a potential national championship season.
Miles can do whatever the frick he wants with no consequences.
Due to financial obligations to Miles, LSU has no control in that employment relationship and people just need to get over it.
Is Miles the kinds of guy that would take advantage of the situation? Probably not.

come on man, this hack is talking about the spring game and not what happens in practice. Les is just a sneaky guy that's why players love him. Get a life

To believe this you have to believe Les doesn't care if he wins and doesn't value what his players want. That's simply not true, sorry

Boy would that be wrong since a Championship means an increase in pay for him

That would be wrong as well

LSU can fire him whenever they want, they can afford it even though it would be a nice little hit

Just what the rant needed... another ignorant opinion piece about Miles/JJ.

This is why the Rant is thought so little of.

Mett is going to have to earn the starting position. It is not just going to be given to him. He was not just going to come in and split time with the 1st team with a senior QB in Jefferson. It's on him to prove himself. He has to take the starting spot, it won't be just given to him.

why, JJ didn't earn his. Then JJ didn't do enough to keep it either with last year's performance.

Why are you holding the other guy to a higher standard?

But they werent on our team.

Miles is going to give JJ every opportunity to take control of the position, possibly even at the expense of Mett's development. But if Mett is head and shoulders above JJ in the fall, I'm confident Miles will play him.

If he's not head and shoulders better, than perhaps 2 years of SEC starting experience should be the deciding factor.
