We all know the angles. We all know the stats. But, based upon many of the positions I read here, we can only attribute this year's success to date on the involuntary absence of JJ. That is to say Les is successful despite himself.

The most successful coach in LSU HISTORY really doesn't know what he's doing nor does he understand HIS team.......is this a correct interpretation? I mean he is out of touch and doesnt know each and every players capabilities. Right?

I mean, you PEs, CPAs, half drunk students, meterologists, service industry employees, bar tenders, waiters, plant operators, car salesmen know more than the Mad Hatter. Hell thats why you all have reached the pinnacle of success in your respective fields. You choose not to offer your brilliant football insight to LSU (or any other elite college/pro team) because, let's face it, it's just boring.

I know what's got so many of us stumped today is how in the frick did JL turn it around?!?!?! We all had his arse shipped off to SFA to have a happier ending to his putrid football career. Oh well, I guess its that pathetic idea that he's a "True Tiger"......whatever the frick that means.





Do you really think Les is stupid? If you have a mirror, you might want to bring up some tough questions this morning.

no

he's just a "big picture" guy, and not a details guy. he's also stubborn and loyal to a fault. Which helps LSU win games, and also lose some games we shouldn't have

Miles is genius, one day when he is through here there will be a statue of him outside the stadium. Thank goodness he doesnt listen to the average fan. He always what he feels is in the best interest of LSU and his team.

What makes you think JJ would not be as good as JL? That is a huge assumption. Nothing over the previous 3 years has shown either to be much better than the other. The big change this year is a new OC. To assume JJ hasn't improved as much as JL has no basis. I'm not at all saying I want JJ over JL.

ETA: I didn't read the rest of your post so I realize isn't what you were saying...

Not clueless but more goofy. If he was clueless then he wouldn't be the head coach of a major college football program. I can't tell if he lacks some common sense or just prefers to do things his own weird way


It's refreshing to see a solid post on the rant these days

Some LSU fans used to joke that Miles took an hour and a half to watch 60 Minutes.

Not any more.

There is a God. Thank you CharlesLSU. Maybe there's a reason Miles has won a game or two. This site and a lot of the comments overwhelm me sometimes. It is refreshing to know there are some that actually have a freakin' clue.

There was a great quote by a player last year saying Miles knows what he is doing and is just trying to keep the pressure off of his guys by acting the way he does in front of the camera. Basically he is an evil genious.

Could not agree less with this statement. Anyone with any football knowledge that has been to an LSU practice proclaims them to be some of the best, most organized and detail oriented practices on every level.

Regardless, Miles' approach is working.

I've always said I can't believe Alleva doesn't troll this board for a new coach.

He'd save a helluva lot of money and get a better coach too.

so it follows logically that if one alleges that miles has ever made a bad decision then the conclusion has to be that you think he's stupid?

this does not compute. everyone makes mistakes and bad decisions. Nick the Great does and Miles does. WE know miles made a terrible one with his Co-DC bullcrap.

I, like many others, love miles, but hate the fact that he has wasted so much time on JJ. WE fear that he loves the kid so much he'll put him back in. Oh, we are not worried that JJ will get some snaps. We are worried about him starting.

Even the most brilliant people do stupid things. Even us lowly civilians can spot a glaring error.

Miles is the smartest coach in America. He can say words without actually saying anything and leave the listener spellbound by his scintillating bullshite.

Then he goes out and kicks arse on the football field.

Genius.
