"I meddle enough as it is. There's some things I insist on and I'm a pain in the tail occasionally. I enjoy that role."

Why do people think he is the only HC who gets involved with play calling?

Wait?? what?? aren't you one of the guys that says Miles interferes with the playcalling? As a matter of fact...didn't you agree with a post in another thread that said Stud will call whatever Les wants him to?

and why do you seem to enjoy it when something negative happens to LSU?

Deny what? Anyone that thinks the HEAD COACH doesn't have say over what happens on both defense and offense is a fricking moron. What I think is ridiculous is Les gets shite for "meddling" with the offense but no one says shite about the defense, which he ALSO meddles with from time to time.

Yes he does interfere with the playcalling and he just confirmed it.

You think I'm happy today? I'm about as pissed as possible.

Many of us have been saying he's been meddling too much for years. Some Pumpers have been denying this fact (no I'm not looking it up). Now they'll just say he's meddling some, what head coach doesn't.

i've never said he doesn't put his hand on the offense....every coach does. I just don't believe everytime the offense sucks its on him and everytime it plays well its on the OC like some people

I think the main point is, unless you have been wearing a fricking headset the past couple years, you don't know who was calling what and when.

So did Miles meddle last year and make us run that much?

The only time we know for sure that he called a specific play was against Tennessee where he called a run with Ridley. If thats the type of meddling he does (keeping Crowton from getting too cute) then Ill gladly take it. If he wants us to be a run first team perfect. We have great RBs. Anyone who thinks we should have been running less the past couple years and "opening up the offense" is a fool.

All Head Coaches are involved in the O and D. If they're not supposed to "meddle", then what exactly is your idea of what a Head Coach's role should be in the team's function? Just stand on the sidelines, scream at everyone and eat grass?
