can't possibly put all of this on Miles. (I really think Harvey Updyke put valium in our pregame meal).




But seriously, I was stunned, disappointed, ticked-off… you name it. That didn’t look the Tigers that I knew, but it happened. We had a great year, just didn’t finish. I still support CLM and look forward to next season.

I am all for keeping Miles. I have been a hater all this time. I don't want another coach other than Miles. He is a great coach. His handling of the Lee situation and his love for JJ is unreal though. He produced a 13-0 mark with the toughest schedule.

Miles has to take full responsibility for Monday night though. Horrible gameplan and his stubbornness cost the game. We just have to wait and see what comes out behind the scenes when it is all said and done.

Miles is the greatest coach in LSU history and should not even be considered being fired even with Monday's fiasco. With that said, he deserved to be bashed thoroughly for multiple reason: the qb situation the least and not having a game plan that would at least challenge the Alabama defense. It was fricktarded to say the least.

I am a CPA, not a football player or coach but it seems obvious as a fan of football that while we are a running team it is an intermediate passing game that opens up the running game. The strategy of sticking with the scrambling quarterback when you have 4 very good running backs is redundant. 5 or even 10 yard scrambles can't sustain drives over the course of an entire game. If the rush is too hot then use screens and quick slants. It is on the coaches to game plan for this.

It is hard to fathom that between Miles, Kragthorpe, Stud and Gonzalez none of those guys could get in the head of JLee during the Nov 5th game and get him back in the saddle, so to speak. It was notable how comfortable and confident McCarron looked. I knew we were in trouble after Bama's first 3-4 plays. This game is on the coaches, not the players.

Miles is an idiot but he is our idiot.

Insane to say fire his arse. But he fricked up that once in a lifetime opportunity - BAD.

And preseason #1 next year does not mean shite except that we probably do not stand a shot for a crystal next year. Preseason #1 hits at the trophy once every 10 years??
