Having followed the Jimbo hiring from day one, I have a story to relate to you. I can't verify if it is true as it was on a football board.

The other day, Jimbo Fisher came back from an FSU interview and starting trying to coach the offense. He put in one of the five backup running backs LSU uses, and Miles chewed him out:

"Jimbo, I need somebody with brains, somebody whose loyalty has never wavered, and you, unfortunately, fulfill neither requirement."

He then turned to Bo Pellini, and ordered:

"Kill the spare."

We know for a fact that Miles did step on plays and order Fisher to go run attack which irked him. He did the same with Croyton. Miles has been his own worst enemy. You have to wonder what LSU would be doing if Fisher were still there.

I know this to be a fact, when Fisher first came to Tallahassee, he was on a radio interview. They asked him about Saban and Miles. He said I have never been around anybody who knew more about football than Nick Saban, and Lester ........... well he is nice guy.

We're already mediocre, and have been that way for a few years now, despite elite talent.

There isn't a program in cfb that would shite on its most successful coach ever except lsu fans.

It is the same with every fan base, some can't see the big picture. LSU with the right staff should be trading home and away loses with bama 50% of the time, not losing every year.

It was that damn national championship. Wasn't it, Gray? If we would have never won that God forsaken thing, and just kept on sucking, just like the good ole' days, things would be much better!

Damn all of you spoiled kids!

However you want to spell his name, he is quoted as saying that was not my offense being run at LSU. And Lester said of course it is not, it was always the LSU offense.

And by the way I do know being familiar with FSU football that Fisher has admitted that Lester got too involved with play calling. Fisher didn't appreciate that at all.

.462 winning percentage in November against the SEC West since 2012 is below mediocre!

Says the guy that sacrifices nothing for lsu to be a better program. It shows the entitlement of lsu fans.

It most certainly was. Just because you can't tell the difference between his offense and the other offenses lsu has ran during Miles' tenure doesnt mean they aren't there.

Surely you have a link you can point too right?
Because I heard on a message board that Jimbo said Miles was the greatest football coach he had ever been around.
See how that works.

Miles has averaged 3.25 losses a season since 2008 and that includes the 2011 season. During this time he had put the most players in the NFL. That is called underachieving!

What do you want me to do? Go on a hunger strike for the Tigers?

Btw. You don't know me. So why don't you take your arrogant judgemental self, and go crawl back into your hole, mourning for Les?

Again. From 2009-2013 only 4 programs won 9 games every year and lsu was one of them. Stop acting like lsu was losing more game than other great programs.
Yea our 2014 season was bad.

2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 had top 15 finishes. In no way is that mediocre.

This is false. Since 2008 bama has put more into the nfl than lsu.

You're just like every other entitled lsu fan that thinks winning 10 games is easy and having a great program is your birthright when you do nothing at all to make the program better.

Show me where Jimbo has said negative things about Miles stepping in on offense. Since its common knowledge you should be able to link me to articles talking about it.

I've repeatedly said it's time for a change dumbass. I just refuse to shite on our program's accomplishments just because I don't like the coach.
