Who here has stuck by Les through thick and thin?

Never wavering in their loyalty from calling for timeouts after turnovers, calling for a spike, the end of the 2010 Tennessee game, etc...?

I admit I have never been a Les fan, but at the same time I will give him his props. Who else admits they were done with him at one time or another?

I was done with him post Ole Miss clock disaster and UT 13 man play....

Came to accept him after the Bama win last year..

and fell in love with him as OUR COACH after he told Michigan to take a hike....

Now I am "All In" with Mr. Miles and all he represents...

The Ole Miss game was the only real time I was about done with Les.

I've always liked him, thought well of him and defended him on here.

All the way except The Ole Miss Game and it was a brief emotional response.

I don't understand either extreme. Why be "done" with him? Why stick by him no matter what? Coaches at this level should be criticized for their mistakes and commended for their accomplishments. Les has had both, but has decidedly improved over the past year.

Big fan of Les, but his offensive play calls seem to be a little too conservative. But he was a Michigan man, so it seems about right.

he has pissed me off at times, but I have never lost sight of the fact that he is the easily most successful coach in the history of LSU football...he is a winner, and I like winners...

Gotten mad, scratched my head, say wtf, etc.; but never called for his job. He's our coach and I'll stand behind him until he rides off into the sunset. FWIW, Hallman was the only LSU coach I ever joined the lynching party for.

He's never had my full support. After watching him outcoach Saban last night, he now has it. That's always been our benchmark anyway, right?

Saban was rattled at the half.

I think when people reached a point of "being done with him", it was a result of an accumulation of things so I can see the extremes.

I have stuck with him but it has been hard. I remember 08 Ole Miss game when the radio was singing the praise of Houston Nutt.

I have never doubted Les, even for a moment.

This guy. You won't find a post on her stating otherwise.

I'm rarely right on shite, btw. Just happened to get lucky on this one.

The Nutt record is one thing that really needs improvement. What is he, 1 and 4 against Nutt's dumbass?

But I freely admit I've been tough on Les as a coach. Always admired him as a human being. He now has my full support.
