    All that is obvious is that he's not very articulate. So what?

    Did you watch the video I posted? He is clueless both on and off the field.

    What sucks is that he's a likable guy.

    I think some of us need to be watching ESPNU right now and listening to Vandy's new coach. Might give a whole new appreciation for :milesmic:.

    I like Les Miles. I like Elmer Fudd too. Most of all I'd like to see us beat Arkansas, Ole Miss, Florida, and Bama. North Carolina would be a treat also. Just sayin...:)

    I don't care what he sounds like as long as we're winning. If we're not winning, then I still don't care what he sounds like because we're losing.

    This one is for you, TigerTap. I watched Les Miles' interview today. He did struggle early, but I will give credit where credit is due.

    His answer about why the South and West have dominated college football the last 10 years was good. He said because the SEC is such a tough conference we are well prepared for big games. I feel the warm weather and better athletes are a big reason, as well, but it still was a good answer.

    His response about Shepard was the the best response I've heard from him. He didn't stumble around with ums and uhs. He gave a very coherent and logical answer to the question. He mentioned how having Shep as a WR would allow him to be on the field much more often and wouldn't telegraph the play by his entrance into the game. He said he will still run the ball as well as doing throwing drills in practice. He admitted he made mistakes in how he was used last year. He still has to follow through on his words, but at least he understands the problem.

    I figure I point out his flaws enough that I should give him a break and point out his successes.

    Kudos to you....this is all I'm asking for, that people recognize the positives about Coach Miles as well as the negatives.

    As long as the fans are willing to discuss the issues along these lines I think we can recognize that at the moment, at least, the positives far outweigh the negatives and he deserves our support as the Head Coach of the LSU Tigers.

    We thank you for your support!
