Who knew he'd really be our Adrian Peterson? The best back in our schools history, but no Heisman and no national title, just like AP

You know I love Les but Sunday listening to different NFL games while driving the volume of LSU players is the league making an impact hit me.

With that talent we should have and can do better. Let's move forward now.

If the next coach can't win a natty by year three we should move on again and again until we are winning it all at least every three years.

We could've had Bo Jackson and the same result. Offense is too predictable for any RB to succeed to full potential.

This. LSU still has a lot of season left and could be the SEC #2 when the bowl committees make their selections, but it doesn't look like we are any better than the Belk Bowl as it stands right now.

You are an idiot.
Let that sink in.

Georgia squandered Chubb
OlMiss squandered Kelly
The list goes on and on.

He made the decision to go to LSU.... maybe he liked Coach Miles and LSU more than he liked Coach Satan and Alabama.

Everyone finally got what they wanted, Les fired. Any you're still bitching. It's like complaining on Christmas when you get a bike instead of a skateboard.

I guarantee that I have a higher IQ than you, and I can tell you that by your response alone.

LSU certainly isn't the first to squander great talent, they won't be the last, but they are officially in that category in regards to Leonard Fournette.

Miles gave Fournette the ball plenty. His run happy offense is one reason why Fournette came to LSU.

I honestly think it was a blessing and a curse. When you have some one like LF7, how can you not want to give him 20-30 touches a game?

at 6-6 I see LSU staying home and it would be a shame to not see Fournette close out his career in a bowl game but that's on Miles.


How would losing 4 more games this year while Miles is on the couch be his fault?

I hired a lot of people son. but not those that complained after the fact. I wanted successful people; those that concentrated on solutions and not whined about problems, esp after the problems were solved.

we have been bombarded with negatively about miles for several years now. HE'S GONE. time to bitch about something else and save up for the next coach.

Honestly think having Fournette made it harder for Les to diversify the offense.

How is this even relevant to LSU squandering the opportunity we had at winning a championship with Leonard Fournette?

1) I probably wouldn't work for you anyway.

2) We had one of the greatest RBs in recent memory, and once he leaves, we will have nothing to show for it. No SEC West titles, no SEC Championships, no playoff appearances, nothing. Why are you so upset that I'm making this point?

Letting go of Les does not mean the problem is solved. It could be a step forward, but it could in fact be a step backward. I choose to believe in the former and not the latter, but we simply do not know at this very moment.
