notiger is right.

If an explosive expert was defusing a bomb would you jump in there and start disconnecting wires? A football coach has data, like the expert in this example, that you and I don't have. RS couldn't make it as a QB, a WR, a kick returner, nothing. Face it, the guy is just not LSU material. He definitely won't make it in the NFL. This is just a face-saving announcement on his part.

Les had 3 quarters of data on Monday night, yet that bomb sure did blow up, no?

I disagree. I think he is just too far behind the curve since he had no experience what-so-ever as a receiver in HS and the fact that he didn't red-shirt and was given a full year to try QB made it worse. He improved quite a bit in his catching from last season to this seaon and I can see him improve his route running significantly if he stays around. As a pro, he is untouchable right now but I think another year at receiver will make him coachable at the next level.
