I refuse to provide an audience for any of these sanctimonious morons who claim some type of football expertise because they've been sniffing jocks since they were in 8th grade. Will any of these self-righteous dickbags be around to defend Les to the administration and fans when we travel to Tuscaloosa and Alfred Blue gets hurt in the second quarter and we end up coming just short on a last minute fourth quarter drive to win the game because we can't convert a fourth and short with a tired Hilliard and Magee for our only loss of the season and Bama goes on to win 4 in 5 years? No they will write about how great Saban is and Les just doesn't quite have it. Fk these guys and the horse they rode in on.

you weren't expecting media backlash?

Les doesn't care. he's here to win football games, not win the morality bowl.

There is no reason LSU/Miles should go "above and beyond" to punish something that every other div 1 team would be doing as well. Bama wouldn't have booted the kid. They would take the same course of action.

The self righteous, sanctimonious fans truly baffle me.

Most self righteous fans in the country.

agreed. if there was a white RB that Hill was taking over for....we'd have Lee/JJ all over again. Thankfully not. By game 5 no one will care about this topic anymore.

If it were a white RB, would anyone be calling him a thug?

We have a bunch of fans who are upstanding citizens that have made all of the right choices in life, never cheat on their taxes and never drive over speed limit.

By no means am I a Miles apologist, but you would be hard pressed to find another SEC coach (or any major college football coach) who under his tenure: suspended 1 starting qb his senior yr for several games; dismissed a 5 star qb recruit who was the presumptive starter; dismissed a starting d back who was a Heisman finalist the year before. Before anyone chimes in with but the school admin forced his hand - bullshite. If Miles had wanted any of those kids on the team they would have continued playing. Compared to other SEC schools, the # of arrests for kids on the team are low. There are legitimate reasons to occasionally question Miles' decisions, but this is not one of them.

If Hill stays clean Les made a good decision.

If Hill screws up again Les gets roasted.

It is what it is, no one can change it. Hope the kid the best. If he doesn't know this is his last chance then he is a fool. He has plenty of time to show everyone He is a good guy besides being a good football player---We need to be their for him until he proves otherwise.

Lol remember when Meyer suspened Spikes for half a game for literally trying to GOUGE a guy's eyes out? Then he suspends Hyde for a "phantom hit/fake out". Also Roby out because he pushed a bouncer, you mean the same thing Manziel did to a grad assistant?

The difference between Meyer and Miles is that Meyer is a little weak bitch who gives into media backlash after being lenient for far worse crap. Miles has stuck to the same level of discipline for his players since he's been here no matter what shoebox blogger or cardboard analyst says.
