When is the media gonna start demanding answers from Miles?

Why do they ask him the same old BS questions in all his press conferences and put up with his sidestepping answers??
Why don't they call his arse out when he dodges the question by saying the words "quality" and "compete" as if on an endless loop?
Why can't someone say, "Hey coach. It's abundantly clear that the co-DCs aren't cutting it. One of the most talented teams in the country is being squandered at the expense of this "experiment". What, specifically, are you going to do about it?"
It's not throwing his people under the bus to say that they haven't gotten the job done IMO. Honestly, I find it insulting that he thinks that we as fans are too stupid to see what's going on with the defense. What do you have to lose by calling them out before the end of the season and demanding improvement BEFORE the season is over??
Does CLM have to approve the media who get to come in and ask him questions? If so, that's bullshite. If not, why aren't they asking the tough questions and DEMANDING truthful answers??

because he doesn't have to answer their questions at all (see Bill Bellicheck in New England)

In the beginning, Miles got no credit because the team could win by itself with the talent. Oh and they were winning. Now, for some strange reason, it's the coaches fault.......oh, and they are losing.....

Baton Rouge sports media has always been soft in relation to most other similar markets in relation to LSU sports coverage.
What I find amusing is the calls for canceling subscriptions to the Advocate when things are going well and some of the more harmless critiques are levied at the coaches.

So answering the questions of those who pay his almost $4,000,000/yr salary isn't part of his job description?
So he just gets to do whatever the frick he wants, and the only way to hold him accountable is to fire him?
Why not just answer the fricking questions?

I can think of SEVERAL games that were WAAAYYYYY closer than they should have been under Les Miles. I can also think of a few that we LOST to FAR inferior talent under Les Miles.

I guess that means Miles is losing with Saban's players?

what do you think went wrong with the team this year, and do you not think Miles should be in hot water if they're a crappy team again next year?

I hope you're not implying that a BR journalist is going to verbally pistol-whip me for asking him to ask tough questions?
Maybe I'm just reading you wrong...
Honestly, I'm just curious. I'm sure there is a good reason they don't ask tougher question. I doubt they're just "scared" of the coach.

I remember going to the Saban games, the rent a wins, and thinking I would finally get to see the subs play. Nope, the 1st unit played so bad they had to play the whole game just to win and then still lost some.....What would the rant had said about Saban had he not gone to Miami after his last season lost........

How am I a Miles basher because I want some answers to some questions?
Posted on 11/30/08 at 3:24 pm to Luke4LSU
imo its LSU tells them not to and forces them not to ask shite by taking away as much as they can if they were to put miles over the fire

Why would it get locked?
Seriously, I'm in the dark here...
Does Les Miles get to banish people if he doesn't like their questions (or more importantly, their demands that their reasonable questions be answered)?
I'm seriously curious.

i guess your a miles basher if you don't drink the koolaide and think every thing is all fine with LSU football. despite the 7-5 year, losing record in the sec and the team just flat giving up
