Are TAF members pissed?

I know most of us are frustrated as hell about the qb fiasco but I wonder if TAF has let their feelings be known. Seems to me that's where the most pressure would come from that would make a difference.

Would TAF put pressure on miles to rethink his love affair with AJ since it's starting to look like JJ 2.0

JJ 2.0. The similarities are eery. No question.

IDK ... have a friend who was at one time in the top 100 although I'm not sure where he is now. Haven't seen him in a while but I can surely find out! I'd be curious -- of course he wanted Miles gone back in 2009 after the Bama game.

The only thing that will have significant impact is if revenues start to drop ie season tickets, parking, concessions etc.
Eta this is the same bullshite conversation that was happening when people wondered if we'd get to 6 wins just went toe to toe with one of the best teams in the SEC and it is obvious we are on their level. Still a solid program

#1 We're ranked #20 in the polls.
#2 Our 3 losses to teams who at the time were in the Top 10
#3 Tiger Stadium is sold out
#4 Last nights games was televised in prime time on CBS.
I'm not a TAF member, but if I was, I don't think I would be pissed.
JMHO.

This isn't Penn State where the coach is bigger than the program dude. If enough people with money want him gone, he's gone.

I know several members that are much higher than me. Typically, most are successful and have a lot more intelligence than the crap you see on here. LSU is 7-3 in a year many termed rebuilding, and during a season in which many at one point said they would go 4-8. They lost by 5 points early in the season to current #1. They beat current #10. They got blown out at Auburn after Miles uncharacteristically caved in to the fans, and they lost a game in overtime to current number 3 in a game they completely dominated.

I hope he was being sarcastic, because in no way is Miles untouchable. The only thing he has going for him, is that huge contract that goes through 2019.

Miles will be here for another 10 years. He wants to leave a legacy here like Schembechler at Michigan.

Consider ipodking's history as a bigger Les Miles fan than LSU fan.

Les shouldn't get another raise or extension until he wins another natty. He should have until the end of his contract to deliver or he's gone at the end. Plenty of opportunities for him to do it and if he can't, then it's time to get rid of a bad investment when we're paying him millions of dollars to win a natty.

Good point. Fans absolutely demanded that Miles start Harris for that game and got what they asked for. Say what you will about Jennings, but he has won 80% of his games as a starter, even after last night's game is included with his totals.

Please tell me your joking. Did you even watch the Miss St and New Mexico St games?

1. Les has won 79% of his games.
2. Miles' teams have won 10 or more games per season 7 times in 9 completed seasons.
3. 2 National Championship games.
4. 1 National Title.
The man's job is safe for a long time.
Sure his record against Nick Saban is dismal (3-6) but the fans keep showing up to buy tickets. Money is the only thing in this world that makes people happy. If Alleva and TAF are happy, then nothing will happen.
You cannot fire a head coach who wins 79 percent of his games. No one would want the job once you let Miles go. Saban is not coming back to Baton Rouge to coach LSU.
AS frustrating as it may be to lose 3 games in a season, the past 11 seasons have been Golden. I don't like Saban and Alabama's dominance over the Tigers, but WTF can you really do about it ? Prepare and recruit the best you can. And find other things in life to comfort you.
