I understand your opinion but I can guarantee you that you are wrong.



I doubt Miles would change dominant QB's based on near ineligibility. He would be certifiable loony for doing that. I have more faith in him than you do, it appears. Miles made the change during the Bama game.

Has anybody ever considered that we have a quarterbacks coach? Don't you think he has some input? Why does he always get a free pass in these discussions? Why does everyone dog on Les?

Miles pulled Lee during the Bama game because of eligibility issues???

Doesn't make sense. THere may be academic issues which there are with many student athletes, but that isn't the reason JJ is playing and Lee isn't. I have more faith in Miles than you.

The Academic problems came out the week before WKU.

Lee is on the verge of academic ineligibility according to multiple sources close to the program.

I don't really give a frick if you believe me or not.


This was also said about Mett.

It is actually true about JJ though. Dude wrote a whole history paper about George Jefferson.

I don't really give a frick if you believe me or not. God damn JJ fangirls.

Because they are small minded idiots that lack the ability to survey the situation and come up with their own conclusions. These morons hear what the other idiots at the watercooler are bitching about then they just parrot it to whoever will listen.

A lot of the dumbfricks that bitch about stuff all the time think that makes them appear to know more than they do. If you agree with the coaches there isn't much to say...they like to rip the coach so it gives their loudmouth borderline retarded mouths something to say.

QB change happened during the Bama game.

You seem to be under the impression that Lee is being subjected to some on field punishment for academic reasons, yet he is still playing. The change occurred during the Bama game. Miles is starting/playing JJ because he prefers to start/play JJ. The QB change was related to on field issues.

Yes. Because JJ was moving the offense a little better and Lee was having some struggles. Im sure we agree on that.

Yes.

I agree with that. And also feel that he is doing it in order to have his team prepared for the chance that Lee gets ruled ineligible for post season.

It could be that Les thinks Lee may become ineligible and he wants JJ to get more reps.

True. I think he will handle the QB situation well from here on out. As long as he plays to their individual strengths.

Hard to argue with the results, but in terms of Miles being a class act and man of honor, I would say that his handling of Lee tarnished that aspect of his reputation.


No it just reaffirmed how much crap is on the Rant….

Only game he would be ineligible for would be the bowl game, most likely. If this is the case, Mettenberger needed to be throwing the ball vs WKU and Ole Miss.

I didn't think it was possible but number of laughably stupid posts and threads has actually gone up with each win by the football team.

Undisputed #1, longest winning streak in CFB, loaded with talent, 1st regular season 11-0, best season since 1958, largest margin of victory in history against two major conference rivals, unscathed through a tough strength of schedule.

Does it stop the chicken littles? Hell no.

I dont see people crying over ron brooks not seeing much play time this year. I have lost all respect for Les Miles.

If this was the case, I don't think you would have seen Lee in the first quarter yesterday. You could have seen Mettenberger throwing the ball. I just don't see any evidence that Lee is being "punished" at this point or that LSU is preparing for life without him.
