The Irony of the situation with the fan support (edited for longer title)

For the last two weeks, all we've heard is how money was not a problem when it came to Les' buyout. Our rich boosters were going to pony up and do whatever they could to get Les Miles fired. The rich dudes were driving this thing.

Then tonight, the vocal majority of the crowd in support of Les were the poor arse students.

Obviously, I'm not saying that is what ultimately saved his job. Maybe we went after Jimbo and we couldn't get him. Maybe the athletic department reviewed the season and decided it was enough to keep Les another year. But if the atmosphere at the game tonight and the positive response for Les had anything to do with the decision to keep Miles, it's pretty funny when you think about it.
