BS, most of these babies are pissed because we lost. If Lee played and the final was 21-7, they'd still bitch about something.

If it was 21-20, LSU played all out and still lost, these same people would still be bitching and complaining about something.

Hell, most of them bitch when we win games.

It is amazing that Miles misunderstood the dynamics of the QB situation. It's even more amazing that it look this long before it blew up in his face. In the November 5th game, Jarret Lee played a horrid quarter of football against the Crimson Tide and was pulled...

Jordan Jefferson played a horrid half of football January 9th against the Crimson Tide and was not... The problem is consistentcy. When you are the leader of a team, consistentcy is one of the most important traits that one can have to maintain buy in from that team...

Miles' refusal to be consistent in his dealings at it related to QB playing time (based on performance) has caused him bigger issues than just losing this game, he slowly lost the belief of his team in his decision making everytime Jefferson returned to the field in the 2nd half...

Would have inserting Lee into the game have changed the outcome? Probaly not, however why leave that type of doubt? The problem is that we and his team will never know what would have happened, because Miles wasn't consistent.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate yourself as a person? I'm guessing a low of 9.

This could be one of the most self serving, pompous, and elitist threads ever started on the Rant.

Gosh, for 2 seasons we have had post after post bitching bout QB play and yet we win the SEC, go undefeated in SEC play and undefeated in the regular season for the 1st time since 61 even with subpar QB play and you think the staff didn't get what was going on with out QBs???

And BTW, the "dynamics of the QB situation" didn't cause Bama to beat us, but Bama stuffing our rush game, 39 yds, while we gave up almost 400 yds of offense to Bama did.

Bama beat us...their 11 lined up against our 11 and their 11 stuffed ours.

If you want to think putting Lee in , would have changed anything...go ahead, but nothing I have seen in the last 4 seasons of play lead me to believe it would.

And , sometimes leaders are blinded by reasons no one ca explain and make terrible decisions costing their organization dearly. Those leaders are usually held accountable

Does a good leader result to name calling "whiners" and generally "low-rent people". Since you stated your are a leader a little self-assessment of how you feel about people underneath you having an opinion other than yours, might do you some good.

Leaders must never quit-which is what Miles did.

Saban didn't quit! Those calls Miles were making weren't simply bad, they were acts of surrender.

Yes, why should anyone care about a national title, why all the fuss?

He could explain why he decided to quit.
