How the frick did LM "blow" the game vs bama or PSU?
Well, one I would expect them to get better. And Jordan Jefferson isn't subpar, his playcaller is.
2 Les Miles allowed Gary Crowton to call a middle screen against Penn State with NO timeouts to the middle of the field!

WTF do you expect from an offense that has two subpar qbs the last yrs?

I'm not talking about problems with players Character.......
How much did Billy and Frank help with the offense that had 2 1st downs in the 1st half after a month of coaching?

JJ thought it was a good call and so did I.
38 secs, they had deep zone covg, pick up a first down and clock stops in a wide open middle of field.

I like Jordan Jefferson. Your a fricking idiot have a good day asshat.
You like throwing to the middle of the field with no timeouts.

Come on. Did it really look like the offensive problems were fixed on Friday? Compare Jefferson in the Chick-Fil-A to the Capital One - do you think he improved? I guess its ok, though - Miles has some "suggestions" I'm sure he's making to those responsible.

Obviously they didn't if we didn't get a 1st down.

Do you even fricking know?
Of course you dont, but hey at least you called me an asshat and showed me huh?

I cant wait to hear this....please elaborate.
Michigan job came open at the same time LSU was going into the NC game and LSU was forced to over-pay for a coach that wasn't a good fit to eliminate the distraction. Now you're stuck with the guy who isn't a good fit till he has consecutive losing seasons while Alabama is turning into a powerhouse. That's unfortunate timing.
Les Miles is a gambler, pure and simple, and he makes questionable calls during close games that are good for 2-3 losses a year in the SEC. Sure, he gets lucky from time to time like he did against Auburn in 2007 but to consistently win in the SEC you have to make what I call "high percentage" coaching decisions. That is, coaching decisions that put you in a position to win close games a majority of the time. I know you probably don't want to hear this but unfortunately for LSU, Les Miles coaches a lot like Mike Shula did at Alabama. Alabama was just lucky in that everyone looked at Shula with a skeptical eye and Shula didn't have this stock pile of talent to blur his coaching abilities. Les Miles has a NC and has to now build up an equivalent negative critical mass to justify getting rid of him.

true, however unfortuntly for coaches they dont know the end result of a play until after it happens.
In case you missed it LH penalty is what fricked the end of that play up.. not the time...
We had 38 secs on the pennstate 45 with 2rd down and 5.
We could clocked the ball easily, with AT least 20 secs to play.
But clearly none of that is relevant, only you and your supreme wisdom.
GTFO.

Dude you don't run a play that doesn't guarantee a 1st........you don't run a play that is behind the yellow line, you know the 1st down marker.......The fricking Lyle Hitt call was a direct result of the dumbass play. Because an incomplete pass, or a ball thrown beyond 10 yards doesn't cause the melee that insued........but none of that is relevant to you becuase you love excuses.

TIGRLEE,
you do realize that what you just typed was what the argument was when ~1998 when the "fire Gerry Dinardo" bandwagon started filling up?
People were saying that LSU has a reputation for firing coaches when things go sour and that no real coach worth a shite would come here.
Granted, Dinardo didn't win (or back into) a National Title. He came real close in 1997.
But with the way the entire sports world thinks of Les Miles, I think that anybody in their right mind would understand why LSU fired him.

The defense of Coach Miles would like to present exhibit "A" : The University of Miami.
Several of you have pointed out the similarities between Les Miles and Larry Coker.... Well, Miami felt their program was on a downslide and they canned him. Not only dd Larry fall off into oblivion, but how did that help out Miami? Once the rulers of the pathetic ACC, did you see ANY top name guys line up for that job? I don't recall a one. And to save money, they handed the job to Randy Shannon. How did that work out? I think they sniffed the top 25 for the first time since that move this year (they might have been ranked at some point last year but I don't have the time to fact check).
Again, Miam isn't the job it used to be. Why? We could hypothesize for days on that. I think it might have been in part due to Miami being so quick to axe a guy who had a defendable record and the media storm it resonated.
Think about this... We ALL have been job shopping at some point. And don't YOU lisen to the "word around the campfire?" it influences me.... What do current or former employees have to say about their company or bosses (and in this case, I think fans are part of that influence). What do the customers say? Are the bosses quick to pull the trigger and knee jerk reactions? Are they fair? I've turned down jobs because of those things, and if you think for one second that coaching candidates out there aren't paying attention to the treatment of current coaches by their fans, media, and universities, you're dead wrong.

quote:109th in total offense means you are the problem. Even teams with quarterbacks much worse than JJ have been more successful. And who is the man that is in charge of developing JJ, that would be Crowton. He hasn't developed a quarterback his whole career. Which why is first year is successful and terrible by year 3. Those are the facts.
Im still waitng on one of you goons to explain why this is fact.
B/c the facts that I see are that GC had to deal with JL and JJ the last two yrs and if you combind both of thems play you still come out with MEDIOCRE.
How is this GC's fault?
I honestly believe some of you underestimate the improtance of having a qb that is above avg leading your team.
