Rumors on why Alleva acted so fast to fire Miles
Posted on 9/27/16 at 4:50 pm
Posted on 9/27/16 at 4:50 pm
I have heard from some people familiar with the program(former players)that there was about to be a mutiny of some of the players regarding the play calling and that it was about to get real ugly internally. It got back to Alleva early Sunday morning. He decided that he had had enough
Anyone else hearing anything similar

I wouldn't doubt it. After that exchange between LF7 and Miles after the 3rd down play, I have no problem believing that.

it was on Dan Patrick
he said it in the context that it wasnt hard, because it was enjoyable everyday
I dont think he was discounting that it took work, just that the joy he took in it, made it easier

Les really said that?
Out of context.
He said coaching LSU was a blast and he enjoyed every moment. It was not difficult.
He was asked the most difficult part....
He was simply saying he loved it so it was not burdensome.

How early? The decision to try to fire Miles was all but made (pending BOS/F. King approval) right after the game.

And the play or two before that where Etling showed a lot of visible frustration because they (Les and Cameron) couldn't get the play in to him on time and he had to call a TO.

Does anybody have a clip of that?

Whoooo rumors. I'm guessing your source can't (won't) be identified. 
You people are so sad.

Miles had lost support of the administration and boosters but not the team. Yes, they were frustrated, but I seriously doubt mutiny would have happened. The mutiny was happening in the TAF.
Firing Miles early appeases the boosters and gives the team something to still play for with 8 games under Orgeron.

Of course not, that's not how sources work.

It may be better if you did not read the types of information posted on message boards. You can read the paper or watch the news and get all the official information.
Although, you would miss out on the information that gets shared from time to time from people that are in a position to know things, but do not want to be known as a leak.

I didn't get a specific time, but it was definitely before 10 a.m.. Because Orgeron got the call before he went to mass Sunday morning that he was to be in Alleva's office for noon

CPT, 4thgen and gumbo pot, you seriously just make sh** up, don't you?
You know damn well he didn't say generally, "I don't think the coaching job at LSU is hard."
LF said something to CLM after walking off the field in which he was t the bottom of the pile, and Miles responds, "I hear you". LF's back is to the camera so you don't have any idea what he said.
Etling called a time out after they were lined up WITH A PLAY. he didn't like something, so he called TO.
yall are a bunch of dildos. don't spew shite about our players that you know or should know is not true.

I saw the exchange but didn't get the impression he was upset with Les as much as he was telling him what happened or failed to happen.

Those rumors may be true. But what enabled them to act quickly is that after the Wisconsin game, a contingency plan was put in place so that all they had to do was pull the trigger.

He'll probably talk about it on the radio later this week.

That way no body can see if you are making it up or not, or if your "source" is credible.
Dude we all got "sources".

Remember that time there was a fight during halftime of the NC game?
Yeah that was made up too.
