Rumors on why Alleva acted so fast to fire Miles
Posted on 9/27/16 at 4:50 pm

I have heard from some people familiar with the program(former players)that there was about to be a mutiny of some of the players regarding the play calling and that it was about to get real ugly internally. It got back to Alleva early Sunday morning. He decided that he had had enough
Anyone else hearing anything similar

I wouldn't doubt it. After that exchange between LF7 and Miles after the 3rd down play, I have no problem believing that.

How early? The decision to try to fire Miles was all but made (pending BOS/F. King approval) right after the game.

Whoooo rumors. I'm guessing your source can't (won't) be identified. 
You people are so sad.

Miles had lost support of the administration and boosters but not the team. Yes, they were frustrated, but I seriously doubt mutiny would have happened. The mutiny was happening in the TAF.
Firing Miles early appeases the boosters and gives the team something to still play for with 8 games under Orgeron.

Those rumors may be true. But what enabled them to act quickly is that after the Wisconsin game, a contingency plan was put in place so that all they had to do was pull the trigger.

Remember that time there was a fight during halftime of the NC game?
Yeah that was made up too.

that makes me wonder about the little exchange between LF7 and Miles towards the end of the game, I guess we'll never know, my $.02: Alleva doesn't call those shots, just plays the heavy when he's instructed to

You could see the players faces on the sidelines going all the way back to 1/9 NC game. "Here we go again." They loved their coach but had zero confidence in the game plan.

Alleva acted fast? He should've fired him last year, dunce.

Totally false. I know it went down Saturday night.

There was a contingency plan in place, probably after the first game.

After Wisconsin they were just waiting on him to do anything.
