Has anyone EVER lost a "starting" position under Les Miles that didn't because they were kicked off the team or suspended or something???


D.J. Welter and Jalen Collins say what it do.

People forget CL is still young and just finishing his true sophmore campaign. While not spectacular, he is solid and I expect he will get better going into the next season.

Meh....Had Welter not been benched LSU wouldn't have won 5 games this year and Miles knew it. Anyone on this board could have made that call and saved the universtiy 4 million dollars.

And, as far as Collins goes he started the last three games of the season (SEC games); played in every single game. And, will be the starter in the bowl game. So, I don't know if you could say he really lost his spot.

Point is, one has to be as out of place as Welter was or not on the team to truly lose their job.

Karnell Hatcher, Harry Coleman, Danny McCray, Jarrett Lee, T-Bob Hebert, JC Copeland, Curtis Taylor, Marlon Favorite, whomever was the punt returner in 2006 when we put Buster Davis back there, Kenny Hilliard, and Trey Quinn, just off the top of my head.
