Softball questions were all that were asked. Even the guy that usually denigrates the other team before his lame question took it easy. Anyone else listen? Just trying to get something on here other than the "what can we do for SC" threads.

When does anyone ever ask a tough question on the Les Miles show?

When have his interviews ever been informative or compelling? Outside his recent message to the 'receivers'...

Because it's rigged.

The callers are fake. Try calling in yourself and see if it works.

RIGGED!

It was a little stranger than usual...

Some guy was kind of aggressive and critical in the lead up to his question (I think it was about play selection or maybe WR drops, but I don't remember exactly). Les didn't say a word for about 10 seconds. Just dead air...

I did like Les's response to the little girl who asked, "How many players are on the team?"
There was some snickering in the background, and after a short pause, Les announced, "That's a GREAT question!" and answered her very seriously.

I don't know how much Les gets paid to do that show, but you can tell he isn't interesting in any coaching advice.

I particularly like the little girl that calls in and asks a question
Nothing like a dopey little kid quizzing the coach. Talk about contrived!

Does anyone else notice how smug and sort of above it all Hawthorne looks when the callers are asking their questions? It kind of annoys me a little bit. Like yeah you can laugh at the people who mispronounce names and kind of say silly things but dude kind of does it for every call, even good ones.

First question was about including more short throws in the passing game instead of just bombs. And something similar about the defense..

Got in a couple of times last year, but haven't gotten anything but a busy signal this year. Sadie is the little girl from Texas that always gets in - her question was "are the lb'ers going through any kind of technique drills?" WTF?

Last week some guy told Les he needed to get control of the penalty situation (legit comment imo), and I think Les got offended by it.

Don't know why I listen really - just a chance to hear some mid week football talk I guess. Kind of lame though.

Why would that be a good idea other than an attempt to damage the coach, program or both?

Call in.
You seem to be such an expert on all things related to LSU sports, your observations would be valued.

Not sure why they waste their time with a show like that other than for fans to embarrass themselves in front of a live audience.

Correct me if I'm wrong but as per public record of miles contract 330k of the 4.2 mil a year is this farce of a radio show. Down right stealing money from the taf producing donations and ticket holders! This show is as useless as a pro bowl football game

Wow - didn't know that. Don't hate it that bad, would just like to hear some meaningful comments, questions, and answers from Les.

Does no one else remember when "Keiland" from "Washington" called in?
