I mean enough is enough. I don't see any other coaches carrying on about eating crazy shite.

I don't see the upside of these antics

Here's the upside. Les' kooky antics plays well to the media. Despite some criticism on ESPN, the sports shows love him. It keeps LSU in the spotlight and a 17 year old kid is goiung to see Les as a "real guy". Not some cheap car salesman that sells their program then turns on you once you sign. The vast majority of Miles' players love him and would walk through fire for the guy.

Despite our purple and gold hue that we view the world through, there are a lot of programs that blue chip players could choose. It's Les' persona as well as his staff that draw these kids here.

There are plenty of things you could criticize Les for, but this is not one of them. The fact that Les is not a native and he fell in love with LSU speaks volumes to recruits. We are recruiting outside the state better then this program has ever done and that's a reflection of Miles' charm and dedication to LSU.
