I do as well. I have expressed my disgust with the anti JJ rants but haven't given credit to JL 's situation. Like any other man on the team I am sure he wants to play and start. What is so admirable about him and not noted enough is the class and character he has shown for the whole time he has been here. In retrospect I wish he had taken more snaps at the end of the game but again he handled it with class and will do again Jan 9 or 210 or any day there after. I hope the anti JJ crowd can follow his lead and be more gracious AND be the MAN JL has been. :champs::geauxtige
I think Mr. Lee will look at CLM and say thanks for all you have done for me coach. I am a better person and a better football player ! I can't wait to get my SEC ring and my BCSNC ring !!!!
I understand the feeling that Lee is not getting the respect he deserves considering what he did in the early part of the season. But you have to play your best people, and Miles has always had more confidence in Jefferson. Jefferson just brings an extra dimension to the game. But frankly I was a little surprised Lee did not get more toucbes in the 4th quarter.
You couldn't have worded this much worse. Lee is a class act and knows his position on this. He also knows Miles thoughts as well. He'll handle this just like he has handled his entire career, with class and dignity. And he may even become a graduate assistant down the road.
LSU was up three scores with 7minutes left. LEe should have gone in at that point. But les chose to show Lee that he woul never get another meaningful snap at LSU. It was his last game in Tiger Stadium. This was the guy who saved Les' ass when jefferson gothimself arrested and suspended. He went 9-0 as a starter only to be benched as a reward. I would not be surprised if Lee quit the team at this point. Les could not have shown him more disrespect.
Exactly. Dead on. Even the CBS cameras were focusing on JL's face several times in the second half as the minutes ticked off without him getting in the game. CBS knew a significant event was occurring. The senior class's last game in Tiger Stadium. JL can't even be trotted onto the field earlier in the 4th to let the fans roar their appreciation for what he's done? The only thing keeping me from a rant is the hope that something happened we dont know about. Otherwise, shame on Les Miles.
