Looks like he's lost weight, got himself in much better shape and is full of enthusiasm and fire. Judging from the past few weeks of practice, he & his staff are working everybody's tails off. He came within a whisker of being fired and appears to have rededicated himself to this football team & university.

I believe he personally got the message. This should be a really special year!

I realize the neverLes crowd will attack, but I like his new persona.

Well between Ole Miss and aTm, that's as close as a coach can be fired without actually being fired. Hell, he actually knows what it like to be carried of the field for his last game as a head coach at LSU because he was that close. If that doesn't set reality in and that things need to change, nothing will.

I hope he got the message because with everything that happened plus all the changes made, he has no excuse this year. I'm not asking for a title, I'm just wanting to see him maximize the talent on hand. That requires him to utilize the Qb position to its fullest instead of what he's done with it 7 of the 10 years here.

It's a shame a guy making that much money needs to "get the message" to make changes...if he even makes any changes

If I had a dollar for every time I've read this on this board, I could have paid out Miles' contract buy out.

everyone gets complacent to a degree no matter the money, look at Obama...he plays a lot of golf and has increased his worth by 25 million in the WH making just 400k, you tell me how that works?

I just think Les has struggled to have an above average QB...

and the NFL completely killed our front 7 in back to back years...we didn't recruit as deep as Alabama on that side of the ball.

I think we're going to ball this year...if injuries don't become a factor

If what you think is true he should give portion of his pay back for what he has done the past few years.

On the other hand, he knows that everyone in the administration wanted him gone but they still couldn't fire him.

I'd be more inclined to believe he'll be even more stubborn than before, and won't change anything, because he knows LSU doesn't want another PR disaster.

I think it's pretty obvious he's getting one more chance, and I would bet that's exactly what he was told.

I don't give A Damn about the 15m buyout, if he goes 9-3 or maybe even 10-2....he gone.

No 3 loss for this team this season. If they lose more than one I would be very surprised. This team is THAT good.

I want 15-0 ships from here on out. If Les goes 14-1 with a ship I want him gone and we bring in Will Muschamp.

In terms of offensive philosophy, I don't think Les has the ability to change. He doesn't know how.

So that's why with apparently him holding all the chips with the PR disaster as you call it, big bowl win, great recruiting class, and outstanding coaching hires the admins allowed him to go into the season with only 3.3 yr left on his contract?
