re: Rumors on why Alleva acted so fast to fire Miles

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.

No. Miles lost the team. Everyone knew that TAF had mutinied long ago but they were willing to wait it out even if LSU was out of the NCP picture. A lot of pissed off players after that game. They thought that Miles had mentally checked out on them during the game and Cameron had no clue. That was a recipe for disaster.

The players said all the right things after his firing...but if you also read the things they've said about the practices and what not it's pretty clear they were not a happy bunch

Then explain all the subconscious stupid mistakes various team members were making: fumbles & dropped passes & 23 yard punts & various mental lapses resulting in penalties.
According to the recent Mike Detillier interview on Dandy Don: "I don’t see Les Miles returning to LSU in 2017. It will be more than one issue, but I see a new head coach at LSU in 2017."
Unless Miles was sexting possible recruits, losing the team was the worst that could happen!
