Even though most New Jersey residents don't know or care much about college football, they've seen enough of Les Miles to have an opinion. In today's NJ newspaper, there is an article titled "The 34 Things We Learned From The 34 Bowl Games".

Here's the text regarding LSU:

"Every big, close game that LSU's Les Miles is involved in somehow seems to turn into a coaching adventure on the Tiger's sidelines."

Here's my opinion...for what it's worth. Les Miles is an embarrassment to my home state and our educational system. The man cannot speak in complete, coherent sentences. He is confusing, boring, and at times naively arrogant. His does not think quickly on his feet, and his inability to manage game-speed situations makes him look foolish at THE most critical times.

Obviously, we have to work through the massive contract issue (and it may take some time), but there is no way our state and our beloved university should be represented by this bumbling idiot.

Fortunately, LSU football is bigger than Les Miles. Maybe the new assistant coaches and the talented new recruits will help us through this current mess, but clearly the real fix (as stated many times on TD) is new leadership.

Seeing as the writer claims to be from Louisiana, not sure how this is New Jersey natives laughing at Les.

Classic - don't refute the facts, just attack the reporter of the facts. Les Miles defenders are just looking ridiculous now.

Edit: Can't believe you guys didn't rip me to shreds for spelling Miles as Mile - thanks.

WTF?

So because he stutters in his pressers this makes him an embarrassment to the Louisiana educational system? And of all the things to criticize you actually choose his occasional arrogant demeanor? Truly ironic when you see the hard-ons the Rant gets when names like Saban and Meyer are thrown around. GTFO!

I leave judging the man to his coaching abilities which have shown to be poor.

Les is an embarrassment. There are too many dumb asses in this state to know it though.

So if we fired Les, then our educational system would look good again?


Hmmm...

I think we may want to actually improve the education system first.

And if someone draws a conclusion to an entire state's educational system based of off one school's head football coach, then they may be the one's who are in need of some education.

His post didnt have any facts to refute....he said it was his opinion.

Whats ridiculous is calling the head coach with a Masters degree a bumbling idiot among other things. Thats frickin' ridiculous.

Miles bashers just repeat their opinions over and over and claim them as facts. Suck on it.

I thought Miles grew up in Ohio? If anyone needs to be embarrassed it is the Ohio educational system.

I'm confused. Is this from the article or you? Are you from Louisiana or New Jersey? You (or the article) says Les is an embarrassment to your state's educational system. Is that Louisiana, New Jersey or Ohio?

Because Les is from Ohio. And if he is an embarrassment to anyone's educational system it should be Ohio's.

Well #1 Les is from Ohio. What does where the man is from have to do with the price of tea in China. There are plenty of very smart people that can't speak publicly.

Yeah, Miles speaking in short incoherent bursts reflects more on Miles than anything else.
