Miles' general thoughts on the season...

from Dandy Don:

I didn't hear the actual quote, but if that's what he said then that's what frustrates the hell out of me about Les. He either won't tell it like it is or he's really that clueless. Is JD Moore really the glue that held this entire team together? Were injuries the reason we came out flat against Arkansas and Ole Miss? Did injuries cause yet another Les Miles mass confusion moment at the goal line?
Why can't he just admit we played like crap in all three of those games, that we have huge problems that must be addressed, and not just a tweak here and there and a healthy fullback and we'll be fine?

Hawthorne asked Miles for his general thoughts on the season. Miles pointed out that the losses the team sustained were against some of the best teams in the league and that if they had not had a series of injuries the outcome might have been very different, but that they are still set to play in what he said is unquestionably a quality bowl matchup.

No matter how bad you fools on this board want to, it is impossible to win the national championship every year

How about not getting blown out three games in a row?
Is that too much to ask for also?

Isn't that always the goal, though? I know you can't win it every year but as a coach you shoukd at least see why you're not and address the problem in an effort to. I like Les but I think he shies away from addressing the real issues and just blames it on injuries.

You don't think he knows that and talks about it in house? Not sure why you need him to tell you this.
Do you truly think he believes every thing is peachy?

I think that's what has really stung about the last 2 years
This is the first time in the Miles era that we've really been blown out of games

Such a dumb arse if that's what you thing everyone wants

Basically what you wanted him to say was:
"I am a bad coach. I make too much money. I hate LSU and deliberately sabotage the season just to make the fans angry. I laugh at all of you when the armored car picks up my money. I love keeping all of you really really smart fans in the dark because I am aware that each and every one of you knows more about football, the dynamics of the team and the situation around the program than I do."
That about it?

That's the problem, Bee. You really can't tell sometimes.

I guess Texas Tech, Toledo, and Memphis are deeper than LSU and better equipped to handle injuries to a fullback and tight end.
Guess we're fricked in the Texas Bowl, eh Les?

Exactly! I can't believe some can't see that getting blown out three consecutive weeks is a huge red flag that screams some kind of change is needed. A philosophy change or a coaching change, just some kind of change.

He's actually not wrong, well minus Arkansas. But Ole Miss and Bama are two of the top teams in the league and if going by the bowls they were the two best teams in the sec this year.
Also, LSU did have a lot of injuries. I'll also go out on a limb and say the whole, he's being fired before the season was over didn't help much.
Just hope they finish with a win and start to rebuild that depth on the defense with this class.

Lol what a narrow minded twit. Most of us would be fine with not getting shellacked 3 games a year. Most of us would be fine with not having an offense where if the fullback gets hurt than our chances of moving the ball goes down considerably. Most of us would be happy with coaches that wouldn't be so incompetent to where our team has no LB depth, no DL depth, no OL depth, no QB depth, but hey we have WR's,RB's, and DB's for days. We don't need national championships every year. I just wish MY team wasn't such a shitshow. If that's too much to ask in your opinion then you can go f*ck yourself.

C'mon Gray Tiger. You and every other extreme posi always have to blow any criticism out of proportion. That's not at all what I mean--beefense is becoming more objective and rational than you. I've always said that I like Les Miles--he just frustrates me to no end sometimes. Pump the breaks.

Don't short change the loss of our only true blocking TE as well.

Yeah but Twill you also liked Curley 
Posted on 12/22/15 at 11:52 am to Gray Tiger
What I want him to say is "our approach to offense must change because it consistently falls short against the better teams in our league."
EVERYYBODY has injuries at that point of the season. The man is clueless.

This is exactly what I have been saying for 10 years. You can't win on LA talent alone, the state is loaded with athletes, that's about it. No one is going to just come in here and win titles because LSU is the only big time program here. He's done very well considering.
