This whole thing just makes me sad

I agree, I just don't like the way Alleva is handling this. He could have kept this quiet.

Agreed.

I have mixed feelings about it too. You're securing this program's future for a decade but you are losing a wonderful man that represented our school so well for 11 seasons. He had his faults but the man was a winner.

I'll admit it's a sad day losing Les and I'll remember him as a great man and a wonderful representative of LSU. I love Miles character as a man and wish him the best of luck in the rest of his life. That said, bring on Jimbo!

People keep bringing up the f'ing money.

This is about a coach putting his stamp on a program. The entire country knows about LSU, Les Miles, he's a household name of college football. And now, this dumpster fire the last 2 weeks. No matter if you think he should stay or go.

Wish we could rewind the clock and go back to fix things. We may get a better coach but not a better man. I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way. It's just really a shame.

You thru wallowing in your self pity? This is a business. Miles is paid a lot of $ to win games. He's done some of that in the past but now he's stuck and losing traction fast. Put on your big boy pants and quit whining. Hard decisions have to be made.
It's not like Miles hasn't had the chance to right the ship and $15 mill will go along way in easing his damaged psyche.

Exactly!

I feel bad for the kid brought up with no parents and in a foster home their whole life not a success football player then coach who is a multi millionare with a NC ring on his finger.

Les had plenty of opportunities to fix this and either was too hard headed or didn't know how butI can promise he will be just fine. He probably has a million dollar a year job lined up at ESPN as soon as he wants it.
