I think that 5.5 years into his LSU career, you can at least say this about him--he hasn't allowed his recruiting or his coaching staff to stagnate. When things have gone wrong, changes have come in the offseason ... eventually.
There is legitimate concern that (1) it takes too long to change problems with his staff because he's too loyal to his assistants, and (2) that he might keep Crowton in perpetuity. On the other hand, the offense has shown enough improvement so far this year to give Miles a little more slack.

I agree with most of what Doc Fenton wrote. Most times we are too hard on Miles, but the point I do not like is that he (Miles) seems too stubborn to make changes during the season. The QB issue is the most prominent. Even Ray Charles could see that a change needed to be made at QB after the 3rd game, especially when we had a viable option sitting on the bench.
Same thing now. While I appreciate keeping JJ in the games some for his running ability, the current level of performance of JL, and of the offense while JL is in, certainly calls for JL to start or at the very least have by far the majority of the snaps.
Right now, outside of clock management, which can be easily fixed and perhaps already has been, Miles stubbornness over this issue is my only complaint.
While it might not matter against McNeese, continuing to start JJ and only putting in JL when we are behind, could easily cost us a loss that is unnecessary.
I know this has not happened yet, but it certainly concerns me as we go forward to the tougher games.
