This is who Les is: Great recruiter, good character, players love to play for him.

However, his coaching mistakes will cost us 1 or 2 losses each year. History has proven that.

He'll be here as long as he wants to be here.
It is what it is.

All of this could be solved by Les using his NFL contacts to get Stud a NFL job

i love this board.

so Les has "connections" and strings to pull to get anyone a job in the NFL but he's incompetent and doesn't know what to call on 3rd and 2. got it.

Let's be honest


Ok....let's.

If "fans" are going to be jumping ship from a program that's gone 34-6 for them, an 85% winning percentage, since 2010, then they are little more than spoiled/entitled children who don't deserve the elite program they have had overall since 02.

I have been seeing your type of prediction of "worse" things ahead for years and I'm still waiting to see the cliff you see every freaking year.

Let your disappointment with Lee's career at LSU go. Lee and LSU have moved on. You should as well.

lol, some good points made in this thread, but some are just plain wrong....Les has proven for 8 years, he averages 10+ wins EVERY year...as for as the cliff, the suites and Stadium club are most of TAF annual revenues and they are 100% full with 2-5 year contracts and waiting lists..calling other fans sh***y is the lowest....we are all LSU fans, if you think you are better because you think we are heading down you are an idiot...you may be right or wrong, but you are not better...grow up...

I've long known this day was coming. Time for the bandwagon fans to jump off the wagon. I'm ready for the University to have to deal with less demand.

You not seeing the bigger picture here.
I made reference to it with the whole "snowball" thing.
With restrictions on tailgating and unrest that many fans have about last jan, this season and LM in general,, its easy to see where this is coming from.

There's a reason TAF dues aren't required until March 31st and its to allow the idiots to cool off.

Not to mention, I'd wager my 2013 TAF contribution that the bitching on this site amounts to less than 10% of TAF's annual revenue.

Hey sunshine pumper...

What are you going to say in 5 years when we still haven't won another NC?

Answer: Nothing. You'll have Les' dick so far in your mouth you won't be able to speak.

Not sure if serious.

So...Winning another title shouldn't be a goal because we've already won 1 and only 2 coaches have won mulitple? That's ridiculous. We'll never win another title under Les. Book it. If you are fine with that then keep pumping that sunshine.

Just wondering here how many of the ranters here are the same ones who bail out at half time of close SEC games? That picture of TS at half time of the Moo St. game was horribly embarrassing. Yet, while demanding "perfection" ( 13-0 & averaging 50 pts a game) from the staff/team, their...your support...is only half arse at best.

LSU should have taken 5 dollars off every face ticket instead of giving Les a raise.
