lee would basically have to be the worst QB in history t not be able to at least run with JJ the final 2 games
the same coaching staff that has seen him the past 3 years didnt believe he was the best choice. If not for the suspension, he doesn't see the field for a meaningful snap this season. The coaches did not believe he could help them win the past 2 games. Could they have been wrong? Sure. But i trust their opinion over the expert opinion of the rant, who's collective football IQ probably doesn't equal to the football IQ Miles shits out in the morning.

Not quite sure why this is hard to grasp. I mean, I realize for some why it's hard to understand...that is, why Miles and staff would consider JJ to be the better option...but why can't people grasp that they actually did?

They have thought JJ was the best option since late 2008. Everything they've done since that times points to that conclusion. And as you suggested, Jefferson was the clear starter going into 2011.

Disagree with his decision to play him all you want...but why the need to suggest that not playing one of his players who he clearly feels gives the team a slightly smaller chance of success is some nefarious personal issue? Is that the only way some of these guys can wrap their heads around the possibility of Miles not seeing in Lee what they all do?

and they have made plenty of questionable coaching decisions in miles' tenure at LSU

and, once again, their football decision making (not character) is shown to be questionable

miles' character should only be brought up in quitting monday night

miles has tendencies. some are good, and some are bad. once we rolled with JJ, the bad tendencies rose up again and led to our demise. we ran a different type of offense early on in the year and we were killing teams with it. it was unlike anything i've seen under miles. pure aggression

It's taken me many years with Miles as coach to just realize that he is stubborn, and is going to do whatever the hell he wants. In the end, all of the bitching and questioning from the LSU fans and the media doesn't mean shite to him or the athletic department. He is just going to collect his millions and keep doing the same shite that we love and the same shite that we hate. I have chosen to just accept this and hope we keep winning.
