Good post.

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?


Reading the posts of some around here would lead you to believe that's the case.

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.




Yep, that's been my observation of LSU fans for decades.

have to give Miles credit for where the program is...but you must admit that he has made some huge bonehead decisions when it comes to personnel.

I will say it differently, let's hope for the best.
IMO 85% he will handle it right, 15 % of screwing it up.

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?


I doubt the OP would say that and it doesn't follow from his post. Hate to speak for him, but what he is saying is that there continues to be a constant drumbeat by some posters to the effect that Miles is an incompetent coach and reinstating Jefferson is another horrible mistake that will destroy the season.

that's the funniest part of all of this....it would be one thing to hear the JJ/Miles bashing at an NCAA coaches convention, but to hear it by the 'common man' is comical....as if they have ANY idea how a big-time NCAA program really works...

shut up and enjoy the season !

we're 4-0, ranking #1, and 90% of the posts here are complaining

I don't think the average fan has any idea how much football even an average HC knows. Imagine being around as much football tradition as Miles.

And to think, I used to believe the Poliboard was too much to take at times. The Rant puts it to shame in terms of emotional and uninformed . . . well, rants.

Could not agree more. When will people realize that Miles' prepares his team to WIN. The asst coaches prepare the team to WIN. The unorthodox game management has been frustrating in the past, but I believe it more a reflection of the past OC. I support the players, the coaches and the fans. If you have ever been a part of a team, you realize it is always us against them. I do not see this team divided, in fact, I see this as a more unified team going forward.

You're like Herbie.
You only hate Miles because he continually makes you look clueless.

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.

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.

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.



I agree with what your thought process is but what is the backdrop for this? Everybody questioning Les doing what now?

Les is the coach that has beaten every one of those so called "genius" coaches. What does that make Les?

There are many who question the decision that they fear Miles might make.
