Good, the media is already hanging around way too much.

I'd like to see media access cut by more than half anyway. Not just LSU, but CFB in general.

Do we really need post-practice interviews?

Post-game interviews for that matter. Especially for the players. You get the coach on Monday, after he watched film. That's gonna be the best interview. Not to mention the weekly radio show.

I think you'd find coaches warm up to the media a lot more if their meetings (and opportunities to field dumb, redundant qustions) were less frequent.

Serious answer to original posted question. Go to the coach Stud portion of the media blitz on Tuesday and look at the smartass statement and question uttered by none other than Buddy "Sausage Boy" Songy at the 22:20 mark for your reason. FTR, Stud's facial expressions during his diatribe were priceless.


What an a-hole.

Les should blackball that nerd the way Spurrier did Ron Morris.

Closed because they are working on the Shepard pass play.

Seriously though, Miles does this every year

How about this explanation: practices are almost always closed. Les does this every year. I was surprised we had more than two open practices

something like "how does it feel to have your play calls over-ruled by Miles?"

He was having trouble with the mic and said "there is some technical difficulty, like your gameplan in the last game".

Coaching staff is under tremendous pressure. Basically, they can't lose a game. They need ZERO distractions.

Injury? Depth chart? Anyone hearing anything? Has to be pretty significant to just shut the media coverage down 2 days in a row.

You mean you haven't heard?
