Another silly journalist questioning Les Miles. SMH. His resume is full of correct decisions just like this one.

It takes a lot more for Les to boot his only player

Fixed.

What would he have without Pooka?

If Pooka stay out of trouble and stays healthy, he’ll probably get 40+ carries a game.

Yet he kicked Tyrunn and Perrilloux off the team possible costing him 2 NCs. They weren't even arrested. Bunch of BS

Les deserves to be criticized for this. It's really bad.

I do not think it's fair to categorize Les's LSU tenure as being "soft" on discipline. The Jeremy Hill #teamvote thing was overblown, and the rest of his track record was pretty solid.

Anyway, this particular case is really bad and I'm disappointed in how Les handled it.

well, just not the first 13x he should have. Pretty sure compliance dept twisted Leslie's arm anyway.

One of the things I have never understood about college football fans is how hard they want to be on these kids. They want these coaches to go into these kids broken homes. Promise their one parent or grandparent that they will take care of them. Then when these kids who have never had any structure get into trouble the fans want to crucify them.

These coaches have likely promised they would treat them like their own kids. I know a lot of people think this is a business but I am sure many of these coaches feel they have a duty to these kids and these communities.

I think Les got a bit more credit for discipline than he earned in some circles here. Many of the suspensions and dismissals during his time were because of University policy and not Les cracking down as much as some would report.

He kicked Tyrann Mathieu out of the program, as well as Ryan Perriloux and left him with essentially ZERO QB's in 2008.

But yes...he didn't kick Jeremy Hill off the team for a fight at a bar...



He allowed JJ back on the team and ruined the rest of the 2011 season

Our current head coach had domestic and drinking issues.

I obviously think he's a changed guy, but let's not throw stones here.
