Um...no. In fact I wouldn't have. If you had know Lee was going to do what he did at BAMA in November, would you have started him?

Are we now using hindsight as the hammer we're going to bash Miles with? If so, nice work.


So you are saying yes then? You would be okay with it? Alright I guess your football opinion is stamped as meaningless.

The first time LSU ran the option and BAMA had defenders beating us to the sideline, an average coach would have IMMEDIATELY changed the game plan. Bama was ready for it, they planned for it. Miles didn't WANT a plan B and stuck with Jefferson and then sunk the entire ship.


I'll ask again.

Put it this way, if you were told Jefferson would average 40 yards a game ( ) in the SEC championship and the Nation Championship games, would you have advocated for Lee to play? Yes or No?

What? I typed the EXACT OPPOSITE.

I already answered this question you dolt. The fact that you felt the need to suggest I wrote the opposite is fairly distressing, though.

I then asked you if we were now going to bash a coach using solely hindsight data? You're not exactly going out on a limb by suggesting you would not play a player once you've already seen their game and they played poorly. turns out, most coaches don;t have a crystal ball...so they sort of have to make that decision WITHOUT your hindsight stats.

Knowing what Lee's play was going to be like in the first BAMA game, would you have started him in that November game anyway in that case?
