All this complaining about the program, it's future, etc. Believe me, I'm one one of them.

This is what happened with Archer, Hallman, Dinardo, etc. Real change can be initiated by the fans. Are LSU fans ready to do this?


See, this is why I didn't read or post on the Rant for the last month of the season. 23 wins over the last two years. Just signed one of the best recruiting classes in the country and of Miles tenure here, most of which were locked up long before NSD. Also, one of the most geographically diverse classes, further showing that LSU has become a national brand. Yet, we still have geniuses like you complaining.

This season coming has the potential to eclipse the regular season run of two years ago as one of the greatest in college football history. If LSU makes it to Dec playing for an SEC Championship, no matter what their record, it will be a tremendous accomplishment. But, I'm almost positive this board will be on fire with negativity if we arent winning by 50 points.

As much as it pains me to say it, I hope you negatigers get your way. Get rid of the coach, let the program fall back into mediocrity. The bandwagon will have plenty of room, and I can go back to enjoying talking about the Tigers.

As we did during the Hallman days when we "packed" the stadium on a Saturday night with 30,000 fans?

If u don't like your tickets, give them up. U would be surprised how many true Tiger fans that would snap them up. They would probably stay till the game is over instead of leaving in the 3rd. quarter like u.

Dude, really? If you have season tickets, please give yours up. You can sit at home and coach with the rest of them. As for me, I'm gladly going to continue my support of LSU athletics (FB, BB and Baseball) as a season ticket holder. And we're increasing additional donation to TAF, joining Coaches Committee and Gridiron Club.

That's not how it works for LSU fans/Alums. You don't give up your season tickets for any reason, unless you plain and simply can't afford them any longer. (As many long time die hards have had to do)

Believe me, when enough people are annoyed and irritated, they'll just stop going to the games in protest. (Like in the final years of Archer, Hallman and DiNardo) There will be lots of empty seats in the stadium and that will be a sign to the LSUAD that people are mad as hell and aren't going to take it anymore. That's when you'll see a new coach in here, but it hasn't even been close to reaching that point yet and shouldn't be anytime soon. (Especially with the impending arrival of "The Renovator")

Under Archer, Hallman, Dinardo, etc., I don't recall the panic coming after a 10-3 season followed by a recruiting class ranked #6 in the nation.

I'm not interested enough to do anything better than recording the TV games and watching them later on DVR.

The games take so darn long, ya know?

This week letting Alabama be #1 in recruiting and Ole Miss and 5 other schools beat us. No new O.C. hires and so many JR'S leaving. And when I read they gave him a raise and extended his contract was the big QUESTION. What the heck is Aleva thinking. Setting us up for a BIG BUY OUT, if something happens that causes it to worsen.

What the hell are you talking about dude? Are you one of those pencil neck geeks who is still in college and never had a date? We had a perfect regular season last year. Sure this year wasn't what we expected but when you look at all the injuries on the OL, a QB who had no experience and our best player kicked off the team, what do you expect?

Put all of your LSU gear on Ebay and we will take it off your hands.

I wonder what percentage of the fanbase feels like Miles is awful and uninspiring vs. the percentage that thinks he is the best coach LSU has ever had. The posts here go from one extreme to the other. My guess is that more of us are disappointed in the directions Miles is going on many levels. I had end of season blues like many on here. This week letting Alabama be #1 in recruiting and Ole Miss and 5 other schools beat us. No new O.C. hires and so many JR'S leaving.
