    I was never sold on Jimbo coming here, but more so I'm not sold on him being a much of an upgrade from Miles. Remember he lost to a crappy Georgia Tech team.

    No but I do remember he has had a quarterback drafted in the first round in 2011, 2013, and 2015.

    I hear the TAF executive board was split and never made a strong push to fire Miles, though some individual boosters did. Not knowing what the money truly wanted the administration didn't pursue Jimbo too hard, and eventually the ship sailed.

    Athletic boosters and AD wanted him gone, academic boosters and the president didn't want to spend the money. There was no communication between the 2 and that's a problem.

    I think @TigersTailgating said it perfectly, if I'm an athletic booster, LSU wouldn't get another dime from me until a change is made. Football pays for a lot of stuff at that university. And it's taken a huge hit, and that's a damn shame. People need to be fired.

    Some Athletic boosters wanted him gone. Many did not.
