we all knew it has his gameplan.

what did he say today that wasnt already known?

he wanted to play lee.

JJ gave them the better chance to win with his feet.

the players that didnt play (shep) had plays but just didnt get called.

there was no fight

loss was his fault

"they were in position to win"

IMO it was not needed.



Did anyone expect him to say anything differently?

Miles words have always been meaningless and his actions and lack of actions are all that any of us should pay attention to. Miles just has extremely poor judgment and takes responsibility for it. End of story.

Les appreciates (doesn't care for) the insight, now back under that rock you call Alex. Thanks for stopping by

it basically sounds like the plan was to get some rythem and momentum, THEN get creative and take shots?


I would say that agrees with what we saw on Monday.




Thats what folks just need to accept. The rematch benefited $abun. Miles what not expecting $abun to change his teams identity in the layoff.....he has never doen that before.

Thats coaching......and thats what happened.....no reason to believe Miles wont beat him again or that $abun is just that much better. The record shows he's not.

Les probably is wondering to himself- "Why in the hell do I even have to do this? Look at my record, etc etc, 13-1. SEC Champs. LSU could do worse"


He had to do this b/c he showed up in the NC game with a moronic non-gameplan, failed to make any adjustments, basically gave up in the 2nd half, and was generally made to look like a fool. EVERYBODY knew that in the hours after that debacle.

bullshite. He didn't need to be there in the first place.

You think Dabo is holding a press conference explaining why he tainted Clemson's great year with an embarrassing loss to WVU? No.

Winner. The game plan sucked, personnel choices sucked and he admits it was his decision.

honestly it would have been bad for LSU if he had rolled jj under the bus. I dislike jj for his shitty play but if the rant got what they want we might see actual harm done to the program. the best thing les could do was admit the team and his staff are hurt by the loss and take blame for the loss.

Didn't he mention the hindsight is always 20/20 and he should have made a change looking back at it...

You fricking losers need to drop it and support the damn team and coaches.....

He admitted he and his staff were wrong. They made poor decisions.

The messed up thing is the delusional freaks that call themselves LSU fans have been wanting to hear that for the last week, now that it was said from Miles, it's still not good enough.

Some of our fans are just plain nuts.

Thanks for the recaps. I am very pleased with what was he said. I feel like he took responsibility and said he is going to make changes.

No he didn't. They showed up with a gameplan that wasn't executed largely in part to the 6 + NFL players on the other side of the ball

Only in your brain. Ive been tough on Miles after the game, but I liked this press conference.



OKAY then, what did Les say that impressed you so?

I'm really curious because the press conference I heard said NOTHING at all.

What was it specifically that Les said that was impressive?

Miles needs to show he can adapt to win the NC again. Bama will be a beast every year. Saban adjusted, Miles couldn't. Hope he learned some things.
