In Dandy Don's transcript of the Miles press conference, Miles says the Quarterback call for the ball. Did that happen? I didn't notice it watching the game and haven't seen it referred to elsewhere. LINK

He also says no one could hear him. How loud was the noise down there?

That is completely false. JJ was looking around to see if everyone was set when the ball was snapped. He never called for or saw the snap.

I do not think Jefferson called for the ball. I think T-BO saw the clock ticking down and snapped the ball knowing anything is better than nothing.

The fans saw what was happening and the place went crazy. I think everyone was having flashbacks to Ole Miss.

It was loud. Everyone seemed to yelling angrily or cheering to make something happen. I was trying to quiet the section of people that i was with. Some of the people that sit near me that never yell or cheer the whole game somehow became very vocal at the end. it doesn't help!

One of the loudest times I've ever heard in TS. And as the clock ticked down, it just got louder and louder. Apparently, "what are you doing.. snap the ball" is louder than the normal monotone yell.

The only one who really knows if he said anything is Jefferson himself. But, if he called for the ball, why wasn't he watching for it?

Miles said that JJ called for the snap but was not heard... I don't believe this because I was actually watching the game. JJ was looking around waiting people to get set and the game clock to expire.

Les said he did probably based on what JJ told him. However, we all know he claps to start the play

It only got loud when the crowd realized that we had no clue what was going on. The clock hit 10 seconds and we were leisurely setting up in formation.
It was beyond belief. Total Total incompetence.
