Fan rumors are to blame for what? Miles's poor performance? I doubt that. He should have left several years ago, but not there should be no reasonable doubt that he is not going to get things done right. Time to face it.


You're not getting the point of this thread at all.

Why has Alleva been mute? Why hasn't he just said, "We evaluate our programs at the end of the season every year. Les Miles is our coach. Anything else is rampant speculation."

Alleva is not calling the shots here. He's just a puppet for the boosters.

Ok here is the deal. Jimbo is going through a divorce due to his wife sleeping with a black assistant coach at Florida St. This is more the reason he is ready to leave Florida St. Ed Orgeron is leaving now for the head coach at Syracuse. It's pretty much a done deal and will be announced soon. Very soon.


Except for the infidelity thing. That's terrible that she did that.

sorry if cursing offends you.

look, this thread is not to justify anything miles has or has not done. i'm merely addressing the "rumor" that all of this bad press is LSU's fault due to leaking info, etc when there are no facts to support this.

Then why do the boosters want the speculation to continue instead of asking him to try to limit it? To make it an impossible situation. Is there another answer?

It's all Alleva. He had a chance to stop it cold...He didn't. There's a reason.

He wants others doing his dirty work because he's a weak bitch

look, I know you're a long time poster on here and have some respect. but why should I believe you on this matter?

purposely "leaking" info or rumors for the purpose of obtaining objectives is an old political trick. many "whisper campaigns" have been quite damaging in the past. BUT to assume this was done without any proof is damaging to LSU's rep. undeservably.

Pretty simple. Alleva made a choice with the assistant contracts. Now that this stuff is out, he has no comment. He's not standing behind the current head coach.

There is no turning back now. You can't just have a lame duck coach out there.

Maybe they just don't have the guy they want in place yet.

I want Miles gone but the pathetic display of leadership by this pathetic excuse for an AD is unprecedented.

Taking anything people say on a message board as fact is kinda stupid. IMO But with that said it is kinda fun to speculate on what could, should and might happen and who our next coach might or might not be.

Now as far the media those clowns just want eyeball and ears whether they make shite up or not. Think about how many of same ones are saying Miles should be fired are the exact ones saying everyone's stupid if they do. So really IMO they have as much credibility as average person on the message board save a very few.

Aleva should have squashed it a week ago right after the article came out. PERIOD! Even if it would have been an out right lie, you have to do it then to save recruiting.

This class will fall apart quicker than the game plans on saturday last 3 weeks with O and Miles leaving and probably frank and Raymond too.

There is little doubt this started from within the AD office.. Alleva has always stated that he doesn't evaluate until the season is complete which gives him complete cover when says no comment.. The BOS interview last week all but confirmed that the leak came from high within the administration which means Alleva. The reasons why.. To many to speculate but they revolve around emotion and inexperience dealing with the frenzy of the lsu football rumor machine. They've painted themselves into a corner that will put egg on the face of the AD regardless of the outcome.
