Well I don't know the "guy", so I can't say how old he is, but I think my post raises a valid question. Apparently, I'm not alone, and this "old guy"
I have followed for years. From dandydon.com
LSU lost to Ole Miss 31-13 Saturday afternoon in Tiger Stadium in a game in which LSU was beaten every way possible. Coach Houston Nutt of Ole Miss had his team ready to play and Les Miles did not, and I think it is time for all Tiger fans to admit that LSU is not a very good football team at this time. LSU is poorly coached on defense and has major problems on offense at the quarterback position. I am not ready to say that Les Miles is a bad coach because LSU went 11-2, 11-2 and 12-2 the last three years before this season and you do not go 34-6 and be a bad football coach. I am ready, however, to say that there will have to be major changes made in the coaching staff at the end of this season. I do feel bad for LSU offensive coordinator Gary Crowton who had his starting quarterback, Ryan Perrilloux, kicked of the team before the start of Spring practice (rightfully so), saw Perrilloux's replacement, Andrew Hatch, go down two times this season with injuries, and then saw his third team quarterback, Jarrett Lee, go down with an injury in the second quarter of yesterday's game against Ole Miss.
As for the defense, the team is loaded with great talent and there is no excuse for the defense they have has played this season. With players like Tyson Jackson, Ricky Jean Francois, Kirston Pittman, Tremaine Johnson, Marlon Favorite, Rahim Alem, Darry Beckwith, Curtis Taylor, Chris Hawkins, Chad Jones, Harry Coleman, Jai Eugene, Ron Brook and Patrick Peterson, there is no excuse for LSU to have the very worse defense in the SEC and one of the worse in the nation. After 11 games in the season, the linebackers and defensive backs are confused and continue to blow assignments and miss tackles. As a matter of fact, LSU had two missed tackles in the opening drive by Danny McCray and Phelon Jones, and had one of the players made a tackle Ole Miss would have been forced to punt on fourth down.
I think that it is time for Les Miles to stand up and admit that his co-defensive coordinators deal is not working.
