Now that I have everyone's attention.....

While I'm not in admiration of Les Miles in the slightest, I cheer for the LSU Tigers...which includes, at the moment, Miles as head football coach. Therefore, in a roundabout way, I'm still cheering him on, although I don't agree with his methods per se.

That being said, I do wonder from time to time...if we never hire Nick Saban, and we never win the NC under him, do we have this pathetic backlash from the fanbase? I'm proud of LSU, I'm not real proud of the fanbase. While I realize the rant is a horrible sampling, I"m wondering if Saban never gets hired here, do we have this pathetic display of idiocy daily?

I'm an a-hole, and I approve this message.

No, but we also probably wouldn't have 2 MNC's, sooooo which would you rather?

Not a flame at all. Im just agreeing with the majority of the LSU fanbase. When your signing the best athletes in the country and under-achieving its got to be frustrating

Hitting us where it hurts. But to answer your question, YES, it is extremely frustrating.

I think there were other coaches that could have turned LSU around. The whole key was to basically make LSU the only place 99% of the top LA recruits wanted to come. Saban helped bring us a NC in 2003 and I am grateful; however, I don't worship him for it.

That's all you got little boy? Nothing more god awful pathetic and pitiful than a fan of another school posting on the message board of a rival team at 2:38 on a Saturday morning about individual game victory's. I guess for Ole Miss fans though, single game wins make or break your season every year. Schools like LSU, Alabama and Florida have slightly higher expectations and are more concerned with Championships, not single game wins. 1963 Baby 1963......

And as a fan should we settle for second best every year?

Probably not. Most fans would still believe that playing for second, behind Alabama, is all that could be hoped for. Saban showed us that LSU could win championships in football.

Most likely not. What if the internet isn't around either for just anyone can get online and post what they want?

But I wouldn't be surprised at all if there is a similar dissatisfaction with whoever the coach is who follows Saban at Bama among an element of Bama fans just like there has been here.

The only stupid people on this board are the ones that love Miles and being average. How does it feel to be picked fourth in your division preseaon? Boy what alot of respect this program team and coach has from everyone. Go die "I like being average in life fuc-tard"
