I say give the guy one more chance..... I know his unwillingness to pull the plug and throw someone out on the field besides JJ could have resulted in a better outcome but we will never know. Couldn't have been worse than the starter on the field that's for sure.

I say give CLM one more mulligan! After all he was chosen national "Coach of the Year" and rightfully so - before the BCS championship game. He also was being praised as the best coach EVER at LSU before the big game. However, now that the biggest game of the season is over would ANYONE have voted this guy Coach of the Year? - I think not.

So let's move on and while an estimated (by my straw poll) 48% of the state would like to fire the guy this week I think we should give him one more season and see what he comes up with this time.... However if he takes us to the ship for the 2nd straight season and pulls another stunt like this one would you want him gearing up for another campaign for your Tigers? What do you folks think?

Who knows WTF Miles was thinking as the game got continuously worse every single second from the 1st play to the last. Was there ever a thought of abonding the script and changing the process as well as the personnel? My opinion is not NO but HELL no. How else could you explain such madness.... It's true he's all LSU/ours and we love him! I just don't want to see him pull another stunt like this. If he does - NO more mulligans. I can't take another national stage embarrassment like the rematch! I expect great things in 2012! Just hard to figure out the last game in 2011 season..... Geaux Tigers!

You really don't get what firing a coach does to a program do you?

Can we just drop this already? The man lead the football team to a first time in school history record of 13-0. Even Saban never did that, some people think Saban is light years better.


I agree, it was embarrassing, it was horrible to watch, and I was as mad as everyone else. But bitching and saying F Miles and fire him and this garbage is ridiculous.

The coaching staff's game plan certainly warrants criticism but the rest of this is retarded.

We lost. Move on.

Epic rantard post.

You are bitching about national title appearances and SEC championship winning teams.

Some people in this fanbase have completely fell off the deep end and have lost any and all perspective.

I understand the logic of keeping a quality coach and playing in championship game(s), etc. I just don't understand OUR coach and WTF he was thinking. Like everyone else I am curious if Miles had any intentions of changing the QB. My answer is NO. Prove me otherwise.

What does it matter? If he says he thought about it, then what? It still won't change the game.

Quit being a hater and move on.

It doesnt work that way. You think the packers are going to start flynn next year? Broke records in one game, broke records rogers has yet to break. No they gonna stick with rogers.

Now on to the Giants, you think they make a coaching change? For years now it seems TC has been on the hot seat, but his team still finds ways to win, unlike our very own les miles. I think hes done all you can teally ask for out of a coach. Hes kept us relevant and in postseason picture.

I know nfl and college is diff, but everyone strives for the W.

Figuring out which humanoids are stupid and which are not has certainly gotten a lot easier since the NCG.

I'm giving Jeff Foxworthy this one for free.."if you think Les Miles is a bad coach or you think he should be fired....you might be a Redneck!" (with redneck in this case being a euphemism for "idiot")

Good synopsis. Note the subject line with "?" ending so as to bring up the subject matter and not necessarily enforce it. But..... if he pulls something like this again he won't be LSU's coach ever again. You can just about be assured of that. That was my point. Idiot indeed!

So he has to go undefeated and win a NC next year to keep his job? Solid logic.
