I'm fairly certain he owes me approximately $10K for costs incurred traveling to and attending an alleged national championship game which never actually transpired.

He "owes" nothing. There may need to be a call made to speak for damage control purposes and recruiting. I think he probably owes the players some explanations, though.

Why would Les not put Lee in the game? He rotated the 2 of them last season? Something happened behind close doors whether it was a confrontation, school related, ect. The whole situation does not add up people. This was not a JL performance situation but something else. What that is I hope we find out someday.

YES. Only because what was going on in that game. He seemed like he didn't care that what was NOT working didn't seem to have an answer. Did the guys in the booth even radio him with somekind of distress signal that a change might be a good thing?????

bullshite. This is like gambling. You spend your money at your own risk. No guarantees. Sell your tickets and stay home.

Of all the idiotic things to say, this is the tops of the list.

really think he needs to come out with a statement or have a press conference and give the fans who have spent countless dollars, invested many hours in following this team, an explanation on the horrific performance on Monday night.


he should, but it will never happen...the guy is too stubborn and arrogant....obviously his weaknesses...

He doesn't OWE me shite, but it's hard for me to get over the game plan and the game and some explanations would help with closure. Like my wife and I knew that after seeing the Ga game that there was no chance of Lee coming in Monday. But WHY? It makes little sense. Why didn't we blow every timeout and take shots downfield in the 4th? Why go on 4and 18 and then later punt on 4th and 3? Why QUIT?

Yes. I want to try to understand what he was thinking and what was going on with this great LSU team on Monday.

Coaches never "owe" fans an explanation.

However, a coach has to be pretty astute about social dynamic. This shite is going to bleed into recruiting if it is never explained.

But let me be frank. I don't think he has an explanation that would be well received which is the REAL problem. The REAL problem is I think the PLAYERS think his actions were shite.

He owes every single person who ever lived in the State of Louisiana an explanation and an apology for not playing Lee! And,for the multitude of sins that contributed to the game that can only be described by combining all the negatives from disaster, debacle, fiasco, imbroglio, ad nauseum!

What is Les gonna say? An explanation would be wasting his and our time. You already know what he is gonna say. We did our best and will be better next time? As far as JJ no coach has ever loved a player more than Miles loved JJ. We already know this. He is finally gone. Let it go. Thank goodness for some new blood at QB.

Absolutely yes. And if he was to give an explanation to the players, which he should, then why not the fans? As much as this shite has been eating at everyone and I mean everyone, Mile's should truthfully explain his actions without all the bullshite...
