Miles has my support. I don't think he will win another SEC title


Well, there ya go, and you have a lot of company. If I truly thought someone was not capable of doing their job at a high level, I would not support their continued employment in that position. I don't think Miles will win another title, either, which is one reason why I can't in good conscience support him. I want more out of the program, but maybe I'm just a dreamer and should just accept the fact that LSU is not capable of winning football championships. But all is well. rah rah sis boom bah

Nega Tigers love LSU, I have no doubt. They just let their hatred for Miles drive them and in the act of trying to destroy Miles, they are destroying the family.


I am considered a nega tiger and I don't hate CLM (I actually really like the guy). I hate that he refuses to change. I hate his stubbornness with the power running game. I think it has cost us the opportunity to beat bama and a few other teams. I love the power running game also...I just think we should be able to loosen a defense up with the pass rather than hope we can wear them down.

I'm considered a posi-tiger, but I appreciate posters like Topwater Trout for expressing themselves cogently, and I agree with his sentiments more often than not. I support Miles and think he can bring us back to a championship level, but I get frustrated with the lack of QB development too. I may lean towards attributing the cause of this problem to timidity in the face of poor QB performance rather than an philosophical over-reliance on power running, but it is a valid criticism of Miles, and a real reason for concern going forward. I think he's trying to fix the problem, and I'm looking forward to seeing what Harris can do next year.

Following stories such as Harris' development is fun, and why I'm a fan of college football and bored with the pros.

I agree with this, he is stubborn. It's why I was sadly ready to move on. How does stubbornly surrounding the program with extreme negativity help?

If everyone wants to achieve a common goal, yet the leader has the base divided, then a house divided cannot stand and this MAN NEEDS TO GO!!!!

How long have you had this Crush on Miles? Are you Male or Female? Do you have pictures of Miles on your Night Stand?

I stopped going to games when Miles got his last extension. I watch every game on TV and cheer like hell for the Tigers. I don't boo or throw shite at the TV, although I let a few expletives fly unless the wife has company in the house. I don't whine and I'm nobody's bitch. As long as Les is the coach I do hope he does well because I bleed purple and gold and hope our Tigers whip the snot out of every opponent.

Lastly, stop confusing people that are pissed off about Miles as being negative about the program or not a true fan. The reality is these people are smart enough to see where this is headed and want our program to do something to avoid the inevitable direction under Miles.

Choosing not to go to the games just happens to be a very legitimate way for the fans to make their voices heard whether you want to admit that or not Choctaw.

You feel this was not a good rebuttal, yet here is your rebuttal to me in another thread yesterday...
quote:

And apparently you just happen to be so mind-numbingly dumb that you think that the clear and obvious trajectory that the program is on shouldn't matter a bit with regard to him possibly losing his job.

Jesus!!! I told Gray Tiger he was the worst poster on this site just yesterday and now I have to backtrack.

Idiot.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

calm down, Cleetus


So now I'll phrase it as a question... Choctaw, do you think that the clear and obvious trajectory of LSU's football program should be outweighed by Miles' overall number of wins when evaluating his future status as head coach?

LSU was 24-1 entering this season...they weren't predicted to win a championship at all. The last two times LSU entered the season as a top 2 or 3 favorite to win a nc was 2007 and 2011...this will make the third time that Vegas has them projected so highly.

As for your comments regarding if we are satisfied with les winning 8 or 9 games....that's so much bs...I think y'all have said it so much that you actually believe it.

2005- 11 wins
2006- 11 wins
2007- 12 wins
2008- 8 wins
2009- 9 wins
2010- 11 wins
2011- 13 wins
2012- 10 wins
2013- 10 wins
2014- 8 wins
2015- ? *

Currently 8, favored to win 9, and mother nature took away a win.
