re: A Miles supporter, and positiger, throws in the towel

Yeah, my point is that Landry made the most improbable catch I've ever seen in my life. Without that catch we lose. Of course Miles recruited him, and Miles played him. So if you don't buy that, then I'll sell you this:

2013 was the high water mark of the last four years, and we had three losses. The last two years we're not even a top 25 team! And this is happening to an established coach at a top 10 program with the largest coaching budget in the nation. Come on man. He's 62. That's about the age a man runs out of steam in life. All signs point to a Mack Brown situation if we don't end this now.

I just don't subscribe to this. If looking "bad" winning or looking "good" losing are my choices, I take winning every time.

For years, LSU has been a poorly-coached team. The indicia of a poorly-coached team is regularly apparent each time that LSU football takes the field.

Many fans who watched the "ugly wins" for years would remark: "I know it's a win, but, the team looks poorly-coached."

These fans were always told that "winning ugly is fine and getting the win is all that matters. Looking like a well-coached team is not important."

Well, now that the team is not only losing, but LOOKING REALLY BAD in losing, it seems to me that most LSU fans are coming around: having a team that looks like a well-coached team IS important after all.

Why? Because when you have a team that almost always "wins ugly" when they win, you still have a poorly-coached team. That poorly coached team is not going to "win ugly" forever. At some point, the poorly-coached team will start losing, and looking bad doing so.

LSU football has finally reached that critical point. Coach Miles's poorly-coached LSU football teams will no longer be tolerated. That's a good thing, IMHO.
