There is alot of recruits coming for the Bama game, including Russell Sheapard. Wonder what he would think about fans booing thier QB. He's our hope for poss National Championship run.

I don't understand how anyone can make this statement after the way the fans have behaved recently.

If Gen. Lee stops throwing pick-6's like they're mardi gras beads than I'm sure the booing won't be a problem.

LSU coaching staff can help out by calling safer plays. Slants, flies, screens.

Actually, better not call any screens

he would think, man these fans expect a lot from a team that has two national championships in the past 5 years, maybe i should go play for a team that is ok with losing so i don't have to get criticized for my bad playing.

I'll repeat what I posted last night:

The best thing to happen to the program was winning two national championships.

The worst thing to happen to the fans was winning two national championships.

LSU fans suck. Not all of them, but the majority that do make up for those that don't. I'm ashamed to sit in Tiger Stadium with them.

Bottom line is that this team is 6-2 right now. You would think this team is 3-5.

Lee is going to improve, regardless of what all these coaches on this board says. It's going to happen. They're 6-2 now, imagine what they will be like whenever he's a seasoned college QB.

Yeah, the program is obviously in decline.

the fans that boo'ed were at least in the stadium to boo at the end of the game.



What a sad epitaph for a once envied fan base. The fact that the "good" fans stayed to boo.

I think some fans are not booing the players there booing the coachs and I can not blame them.THings like play calling that puts lee in bad situations.Like playing Jefferson with 4 min. left in the game what a waste why not play him at least one seris in the first half.I say sometimes the coaschs should be booed with the money they make thye should do a better job.

Anyone who buys a ticket has a right to "boo" players whenever he wants, regardless of how childish it may seem. As a season ticket holder, I also have the right to tell those who boo that they are a-holes. It works both ways.

The defense is a far more pressing problem than QB

I have to agree, anybody who has got the stones to continue to shovel out cash in the volumes TAF seems to demand just to go get beer poured on them and sit in a seat a five year old's arse wouldn't fit into, then to have to endure watching a kid who wasn't supposed to be playing yet start and play a whole game, has the right, in my opinion, to boo Coach Miles for letting the team get into that situation.

See that's the thing: Who are you booing?

Are you booing Miles? Crowton? The Twins of Death (co-defensive coordinators, puhleeze!), The whole team, or are you just in the mood to boo?

Or are you booing the BEHAVIOR? Can you separate the sin from the sinner in your booing?

See how complex this is? I just stay home and boo at the TV.....

go anywhere in major college games and when a guy throws 5 ints returned for td and two or three others that were almost returned and the backup has never thrown a pass and is put in with 4 min to go against tulane there will be booing at each and everyone of those schools- stop throwing the picks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

florida lost 4 games last year and how do they look now. They've recruited well too, but even great teams have to reload when they lose players

Lee is going to improve and booing him is completely unacceptable but to suggest that nothing is wrong and inexperience is our only problem is a little naive in my opinion. If Miles doesn't have a change of heart about the direction of our defense we become a middle of the pack sec program.

Our fans sucked really bad last night. I was in the student section and everyone where I was was sitting down not even making a hint of noise. I tell them to give their tickets to someone who cares, and people want to talk shite about it. And then I went to another section.

Too many of our fans get their validation as a human being from how LSU does on the football field. Get a life, people and get some perspective. These are college kids playing for the home state flagship university. They chose to attend LSU and we should support them. Jarret Lee will develop into a very good QB for LSU if the fans and coaches will just be patient and allow time for development. The problem is that we live in a microwave culture and people don't want to wait for anything anymore. They want it now. I think that is why there is such a chasm between fans under 35 and over 35. The older fans remember what really shitty LSU football is and know that what they are seeing right now doesn't compare to the doldrums of the Hallman years. The younger fans have grown spoiled to the last decade of success and think it is our birthright as LSU fans to win SEC and NC every year now. That flies in the face of history. If you win an SEC championship ever 4-5 years you are doing pretty good in this league. We won the damn game. Try to enjoy it and look forward to Bama.
