It’s not even a game anymore, actually pretty pointless.

Pro Bowl has become a joke. Total garbage.

Miles also recruited Dak as a TE and RGIII as a DB and never let Russell Shepard attempt a pass whilst trotting out Jordan Jefferson, Anthony Jennings and Brandon Harris as QBs

Miles did not recruit Dak as a TE.
What happened was Steve Ensminger told Gary Crowton he needed to sign the kid. Steve was TE coach at the time. Crowton’s response was if you want him so bad, sign him as a TE and you coach him.
Steve then showed his film to Miles who knew nothing about him, then Miles offered but it was too late. Miles got rid of Crowton shortly after. He wasn’t the only QB Crowton passed on that was far better than who he actually signed.

Well shite. I didn’t even know it was on. What a shitty job of doing promotion. I’d have watched.

1) He was udfa prior to Jennings and Harris enrolling.
2)Shep was an athlete recruit who couldn't even win qb2 spot over Lee/JJ/Garrett/Mcartney and would've been lol QB in SEC.

After watching Shepard in that HS All American skills competition, I wouldn't have let him throw a pass either. I remember being in shock and quite frankly saddened as I watched the ducks fly. All that being said, incredible recruiter and gamer for the Tigers. And as I type this and remember being at the Tech game in 09, I indeed would have let Shepard throw it at least a bit. I remember the putrid performance from Jefferson and probably Lee. They finally put Shep in at QB and the place went crazy. Of course, all he did was run the wildcat and TS was back to full throated boos. I think we ended up pulling it out like 24-15 or some shite, but it was U G L Y, you ain't got no alibi. Damn, I miss Les Miles lol. Can't wait to see what Lane does with the place.

Roger Goodell trying to take American football International to me has made the Superbowl almost unwatchable.

You know the saying is I could NOT care less. What you said means you would actually care more.

The phrase was originally "I could care less, but I don't", which is generally what it's interpreted to mean today when used that way. Knowledge is power!

This was smart. Dude couldn't throw.
And yeah, I know JJ and Lee couldn't throw accurately, but Shepard actually couldn't throw.
And Shep ended up having a 10-year NFL career as a wideout and used that money to create a wealthy dumpster company in New York.
He wouldn't have made the league as a QB, Miles did him a favor.

Dak was a miss that almost everyone made. Your point about Shepard is just stupid. That guy was no QB.
Les Miles made some talent evaluation and recruiting mistakes. But on balance he was not just good, he was outstanding. Les Miles fielded some of the most talented teams in LSU history. He had two major shortcomings that prevented him from being an all time great. One is that he would not modernize his offense. The other was that he had the misfortune of having Nick Saban as an annual opponent.

It was a joke in part. Sorry for offending you, madame.

The romance between Miles and Harris still makes me vomit.
