Dear coaches,players and football staff,
Thank you all for working thousands of hours and making so many sacrifices to bring all us fans so much enjoyment and so many great wins and times over the past (many) years. So many of us have come to take for granted the wins and know we are spoiled and 99% of us have no idea how much work it takes all of you to win 10 games. Sure, like all fans I'm very upset we lost 3 games but I know it is MUCH harder on all of you. To the players moving on thanks for all you have done to make us a top 5 program. To the players coming back...see you in sept! For the coaches we know you all want to win more than ever and the long hours and public lives you all live may pay you a good amount of $, but you also have very little job security. To the staff it is the first class film,weight,sid,recruiting etc etc you all add to the program..thanks. And to coach miles 80%+ wins,2sec titles and a nc only make us want more...and we know you want more too...see you all in September...thank you...

Over any multiple year period of time from 2003 to now
We are top 5. If you disagree name 5 ahead of us.

They have contracts, which provide a lot of job security.

You act like these guys don't get paid a shitload of money for what they do. Some of the coaches are great, and some are bad, but they all get paid. It's their job and they are well paid.

Some you like eating at Golden Corral & Shoney's too, don't you?

If you like Top 20 mediocrity, just keep praising this staff and not pressing them for excellence.

This This This! He makes 4 MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR! and you can sit there and continue make excuses for the continual offensive cluster that is LSU football?!?!? I'm watching better offensive schemes today from coaches making less that HALF of what LES is. Damn it man. I'm a Miles supporter too but this letter is PATHETIC!

P.S. Yes I mad...wasn't mad until reading this vomit...but now...mad.

D69. Your mad....why? How many hours did you put in to make this team better this year? Really ? They are our team. We lost a game and did not meet your/my hopes this year.. Move on. Is your happiness based on this team?

Sure isn't. Not mad at the fact that the kids lost last night. However for you to pen a letter excusing failure (yes I said FAILURE) to year in and year out establish any kind of offensive identity and then on top of that THANK our coach who continues to waste some of the finest talent in the nation and continues (his admission in the Bama game) cost us football games is laughable.

LSU Football is a game played by my alma mater that includes one of the largest athletic budgets in the country(which I contribute to). I refuse to simply THANK Les Miles for fielding a winning team. I'll not get on here and tear him down but listening to people like you THANK him for sub-par performances like last night makes me far more sick than the actual loss.

I might sound like my Grandfather but when in the hell did results stop mattering? When did it get so insulting to expect excellence from a product that is paid to be just that? 4 Million dollars is NOT Chick-Fila losses to mediocre ACC teams.. Well in a winners eyes it's not.

Every year there are roughly 120 teams that fall short of the ultimate title, a NC.

We field a team that is competetive, are in every game, and win 80-90% of them. We have begun the season for the past 8-9 years with LEGITIMATE NC hopes, which is something only a handful of teams can realistically expect.

We have had our share of heartbreaks, many of them self-inflicted by the coaching staff and players, some of them just by blind luck. Our playcalling is really inept, and we dont seem to be able to develop a QB.

Les Miles is a great coach and a great man, 2 qualities that are hard to come by. We are fortunate to have him as our head coach. He does need to make some serious changes on his staff, starting with a new OC, preferably someone a bit younger and with an agressive style of offense. And actually let the new OC coach the offense.

Go Tigers

We have legitimate NC hopes due to talent, because we have top recruiting classes. In spite of that we've one it once in the past 9 years, with another coaches recruits, in a season where multiple big upsets were required for our 2 loss team to back into the title game.

If you're going into every year with LEGITIMATE NC hopes and you're coming out of every season with a few losses and, more often than not, not even winning the SEC west, then either your expectations are too high or your coaching is ruining your talent.

Oh, you are very mad!

LSU lost a bowl game that most on here said they didn't care about and now these same idiots are acting as if it's the fricking end of the world.

Many of these idiots were the same ones sucking off Chavis 5 games ago and now the Chavis defense is running around like a chicken with its head cut off trying to figure out to defend a fricking pass.
