The truth is that it's not really gloom and doom.
It's hatred over the history of the way the program has been managed, masquerading as gloom and doom in order to try to find a way to rationalize it.
There is a very long history of twists and turns in the Les Miles saga going back to 2005 that explain why so many people don't like him. Most anti-Miles people can't bring themselves to admit that they dislike him for reasons other than his win-loss record.
I'm not saying that it's wrong to want LSU to do even better than it has in terms of wins and losses. I'm just saying that such a desire does not at all match the levels of antipathy that Miles has generated within the fanbase. He has created rifts unnecessarily. I personally can't stand the guy--simply cannot tolerate him one iota anymore.
By the way, I'm also not dismissing the theory that Miles is creating a program that is slowly spiraling out of control, because I happen to think he is. It's just something that is happening very slowly, and has more to do with moral rot than anything else. By most ordinary metrics, the program is successful and quite stable in the short term.

Pure stupidity.
