Les Miles and his COWARDLY actions

Yeah, but at that point the players were already out there on the field, that's all you could do was tell them to spike it at that point. But you look at 0.31 in the video, you see Les clearly calling for them to kick it before the players took the field. My guess is Miles is covering for whoever told JJ to spike it. Crowton? And that's assuming the signal caller really told JJ to spike it, like he says. Could have been miscommunication there as well.

 

This hurts in many areas. It kills the teams moral for the season. It may cause some friction. Plus it will hurt recruiting because right now LSU is the laughing stock of ESPN and the media. Now you have video of a coach throwing his player under the bus when he was showing the spike it sign.

 

I think Miles is gonna have to come out and prostrate himself before the media and just chalk up his comments to being in the moment and not realizing what he was saying.

If he does not do this by noon tomorrow he is gonna take some HUGE heat!

 

Keep in mind that you dont know this man and there is a REAL chance he has something wrong. At least from your post I dont think you know him. At the very least there are some delusions of some sort.

denial maybe? Im no DR but there is definately a tendancy to deny reality here.

I dont know him well enough to know his mental abilty so just ignore the fellow. He is happy in is ignorance and has been for a while on this board.
Hell he has even had half a dozen other meercats following him down the path of sunshine n bliss. :insane:

 

It should. If it doesn't it will make me lose faith in the athletic department. The players deserve an apology from Les and for him to take ownership of what transpired.

 

He said he didn't call for the spike, and would find out who did. Bizarre?

 

Yeah, never fun to lose.

 

JJ said he got the call for the spike from the signal-caller, who I assume is J-Lee. J-Lee was wearing a headset at the game. Miles was also wearing a head-set and was talking about head-sets? JJ lying, Miles lying, miscommunication... who knows. Silly to jump to conclusions.

 

Actually, it's 18.75 million.
