You got it. At some point this catches up to you. On the other hand there are some LSU FANATICS who will probably hold this against him in some of his business dealings. Companies do check social media and it 2014 it matters.

At the end of the day.

Les is a good to great coach with serious fatal flaws in his coaching style and ability. He's not perfect. He's done well here


I agree with all of this.

The coaches might've had some blame but the gameplan didn't make that much difference. The Bama team wanted it more and it clearly showed. You don't pout and play disinterested like they did when you don't get what you want. You trust your general and you follow him into battle and give it all you've got win or lose. That pathetic performance was on the team.

The truth that the thinks KK is a better coach than Miles. A coach that will be fired if he continues his 0-5 slide to end a year. No he tweeted to get attention, he got it, he should be happy.

Credibility yes, but that doesn't mean as a grown man you act like a 12 year old. He also has a responsibility to a university, coaches, team and fans who gave him a shot and supported him.
He doesn't like Les at worst. And he has put in the years at LSU to voice his opinion. Does his scholarship to LSU include a lifetime ban on speaking bad about a coach? He is pissed at the missed opportunity on 1/9. Who wouldn't?

no because he strayed far away from his original tweet and began to sound like a complete douchebag in his comments totally unrelated to the football team and Les Miles. That's when he began to sound like a 12 year old girl. You'd think after playing in the national spotlight at a school like LSU and having a verified twitter account (too funny) that he wouldn't feel the need to respond to random people tweeting at him. I'm sure he heard much worse from fans while he was at LSU.

You will never convince some of these Miles haters. They are actually convinced that just about any coach could do what Miles has done here in his time.

If Will is pissed about a missed opportunity he has nobody to blame but himself. A handful of plays on offense were negative plays directly because of his piss poor play that game. Jefferson is the scapegoat but on several plays the guy was getting sacked before taking a step because Will didn't block worth a damn.

i think the funniest thing was him saying Lee should have started and we ran the same game plan we ran against Florida&Auburn.

Lee went 3-7 for 24 and 2 picks before he was benched. The guy was afraid to take a hit and lost confidence. Which is why he never played in NC, he simply couldn't handle the pressure Bama was sending, along with our OLine folding a tower of cards being knocked over.

The only way we were going to able to beat Bama was with speed. We weren't gonna out muscle them and run down their throats. Spencer Ware had 16 carries for 28 yards, 1.8 YPC, why would that have changed in the second game?

To be honest, I don't disagree with SOME of what he is saying.

I do find it petty and douchey that he's doing this on the biggest camp week of the year.

But no one ever said Will wasn't a douche even if he is somewhat right.

Mature adults get over disappointments. His tweets show an alarming degree of immaturity for someone his age. Hopefully he will handle business disappointments better.

He's bitter as hell. When he left the program he said "He don't need me anymore" about Les. The guys been a crybaby for a while.

probably a mix of bitterness and some truth in those tweets. not a good thing to do though if you are getting into sales in LA and you are depending on your LSU ties to get you in the door.

Meh. Les will lose you some games, but he will also win you some games... you take the good with the bad.

He looks like an a-hole for posting this though.
