re: Miles calling out fans

Ok so is Miles gonna get into the solution or is he going to continue pointing the finger at the fans?
When you point the finger, you're wasting precious valuable time to fix it. So fix it. Fix it and the boos will stop. You're making 4 million a year, and quite frankly, that puts you in the "I don't care how, just get it done" category.

Where's the link to this quote? It seems to coherent to be from Miles. I think you faked this thread.

God strike me down if I booed at our team or players last night. Now, that's out of the way.
On the subject of what is Miles going to do about it? Nothing.
He does not have what it takes to right this ship. He needs someone off and on the field to take care of his business.
He is not going to shite a kid who can make better decisions on the field under pressure, than he can on the sidelines with a buttload more time.
All of this was very predictable and, yet, still very difficult to watch play out. Miles has successfully taken the fun out of watching LSU football, even on a late Saturday night with the world watching and a 17-0 lead in Tiger Stadium.
The crowd was into the game. Even when all the signs of an undisciplined, not very well coached team were present in our 75 yard penalized first quarter and a half, the South End Zone was like the student section for the kickoff after Peterson's return. Then we switched to soft zone, West Virginia scored.
We get a great return to almost midfield, I think, with 40 seconds left, and we're dialing up four yard pass plays to the middle of the field. WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does this effin' nightmare ever end!!!!!!! We actually have to punt the ball back to them and watch them get more effin' yards than we could.
Miles has gutted this team. They are playing with their intestines hanging out. He will lead them to slaughter. This makes for a perfect Greek Tragedy, BTW.
I don't want to write a manifesto, or even get into schematic discussion, but Hanagriff pretty much nailed it on the radio call in show after the game.

If you had enough people that would spend a dime at 1 game, that would force lsu's hands. They would then pressure Miles to make changes.

we have a defense ranked in the top 5 in the country. they play their asses off for the fans cause we cheer them on and encourage them. has anybody considered doing the same for Jefferson? the booing was an embarrasment to the Tigers, university and the fans. We sat in the visitors section and they really got a kick out of that and it boosted their moral. Maybe the students and fans should try complimenting and giving words of encouragement to Jefferson and the rest of the team during the week at school or abroad. Give them a reason to want to play harder. If you can get more flies with honey than vinegar I bet you could get more touchdowns with compliments than sarcasm.

Wow, I could talk for days about this. Do you want us to cheer when Jefferson throws the ball into the dirt over and over? The Boos should make him want to play better.

you are right. The offense should be given a standing ovation after every 3 and Out. That will get them to play better

You can't target a boo. There are no laser sights on a boo. You're booing the entire team.
I likewise agree! The best thing to do is to have an empty Stadium and that get all of them's attention, from Miles on up to Alleva! Something has to be done and I am one that is not going back to a game until they show me that Crowton's butt is told to staighten it out or you are through! No one thinks that there is anything going to be done because they are winning.
JJ is not doing the things he needs to do in order for him to progress either and also he knows there is nothing going to be done to him so he thinks there is no reason for him to do anything else because he is not going to loose his job. There has to be a certain amount of responsibility on the player/s to do what it takes also as the Coaches. The Coaches can only do so much because they only have 20 hours a week for them to give instructions to the team and when they have to spend that time now between games it takes away from them being able to plan out the games. So the only thing I know what they can do is sit the players that do not do what they are supposed to do. Other than that what do you do to fix the problem?
I have said put R ussell Shepard at QB or even Blue maybe even Ware. There has to be someone on this team other than JJ and JL to make this team competitive, they need to try something to show that they are really trying to fix the problem.

Saban was booed at points during Troy and UAB. Hell I remember Marcus Randall getting boos during JRocks soph year. It's not like this is the 1st year it started. Oh and BTW... I remember a certain kid who wears #12 on our team that boo'ed several times during his tenure.

No dear, I don't think you understand.
This has nothing to do with the fans and the players.
It has everything to do with a coach and his players, and even amongst the players themselves.
I am not personally upset today as I type this. My expectations were a 5-0 start, and a 7-5 finish. It was an easy prediction to make. All I needed was a little history and an understanding of the game.
I didn't start out this way. I went into the '07 season thinking national championship. I travelled to the games and invested both financially and emotionally into the program.
It is what it is. You can sing the little engine that could over and over until your blue in the face, it ain't changing the course.

Good first post, although you'll probably take some sh*t for what you're saying.
Stay classy San Diego.

I am not a fan of the booing. I think it's bullshite, but you can't have it both ways. You can't have a crazy rabid fan base that gives you 4 mil a year and a huge home field advantage and not expect them to suddenly be rational when it turns out you can't coach after all.
Oh, and Miles, if that same guy goes to work everyday and produces the kind of putrid shite product (the passing game) that you continuously put on the field week in and week out, he gets fired.
God bless the guys out there playing their hearts out. Their coach is letting them down.
