re: This exemplifies what is so wrong about the media treatment of LSU and Miles....

Right on brutha

I find most of what you're speaking of endearing towards Les. Sure, some of it is condescending but Les seems happy to fill the role they have put forth for him. People are intrigued by characters, and Les is a character. He does it to himself by personifying an aloof, laid back, spontaneous cat. But you can laugh at Les and also respect him, which I think most of those analysts you mentioned do.



Les is the best thing that could have happened to this program after Saban left. I'm not sure many personalities could fit the bill better to carry LSU into the future. He is stable, he loves what he does, and he brings excitement. I think some of his decisions are way off, but you can't deny the stability that he has brought to this program.

Stability is something that is easily taken for granted.

All he has to do is win another NC and they'll shut up!!!!

Man, I think we just have different ideas of "completely idiotic coaching decisions".

Should we have thrown against Bama and run against Clemson? Quite possibly.

But was it "completely idiotic" to do it the other way? I just don't think so. I'm not one of these fans that thinks just because the result isn't successful that it was a stupid decision. Things don't always go according to plan, especially when you're playing against some of the best teams in the country.

Was Saban "completely idiotic" for choking away the GOTC by trying multiple FGs that everyone knew his kicker couldn't make or attempting a silly gimmick pass with a WR when his RBs were pounding us into submission? I think those weren't the right calls, but I also don't think Saban is a lucky buffoon that wins on his superior talent because the decisions he makes don't always work.

Your ilk focus on the negatives, but what about guiding LSU to a big win over Spurrier's #3 Gamecocks or Sumlin's Heisman Trophy winning QB that abused Saban's D?


What about LSU's greatest season of all time when we won the SEC at 13-0 by destroying every team except one by 2 TDs??

It's always the one play or call that doesn't work that you guys harp on while ignoring the mountains of success that Miles has brought us to.

I just don't get it.


For you and your Miles loathing friends, some words of wisdom from another misunderstood rogue:

"Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and enjoy it once in a while, you might just miss it."

:chickchickachickaaaah:

Best answer yet. I do want Miles to clean up somethings on offense. Just wait and see. This year could be great.

that's a pretty perfect sentence to illustrate everyone i would disagree with.

It's not selective quoting, if you can read, I said you should have stopped writing at the point that I quoted.

And please, tell me what a "completely idiotic coaching decision" entails, citing specific examples.
