You are absolutely correct. No question. Review every personnel decision he's ever made and you'll find that Les Miles' greatest quality - and weakness - is loyalty to people and, believe me, LSU. He has yet to learn that sometimes loyalties conflict and the leader has to make a difficult decision. Until he learns this lesson we will continue to have personnel issues. I deeply cherish this quality, along with integrity (another of his qualities), and I continue to have a deep respect for Coach Miles. But please, get this figured out. He's not doing right by both Jennings and Harrison by being loyal to Jennings.

It's selective loyalty. He's loyal to Jefferson while screwing Lee. He's loyal to Jennings at the expense of the rest of the team. Continuing to play Jennings is not showing a lot of loyalty to the rest of the players.

He does not hesitate to throw players under the bus by blaming execution. The scheme is never the problem. He's loyal until it's time to cover his arse.

I'm also convinced that he DID NOT tell Domingue to kick the ball out of bounds vs. Bama, regardless of what he told the media. Anyone who saw that kick and believes Miles' statement that the intent was to kick the ball out the back of the end zone instead of squibbing is a moron. That's real loyalty there: Lying to throw a kid under the bus to protect his own arse and avoid accountability.
