    Please pay better attention, Gilligan. I was talking about the top-rated quarterbacks who did not stick it out, forcing Les to play young quarterbacks and quarterbacks recruited to be backups. Les is responsible for the football program, not Gunner Kiel's lack of "chest" or Perrilloux's lack of sense or Zach Lee's big pro baseball offer.

    That's a crock of shit if I ever heard one. Miles is the head coach and is responsible for the QB situation no matter how much you try to deflect that fact or attach blame to others. Every team has players that leave, get kicked off or never pan out, it's the nature of the beast. It's Miles responsibility to make sure he's recruited and developed well enough to overcome the same hardships every other team out there faces.

    So finally you admit Miles is at fault for the state of our QB situation over ten years. Great.

    Your inability to grasp what I've said at least four times is not my problem.

    Per DandyDon:

    "Miles said Harris has little freedom to check things that they haven’t given to him and that he didn’t check much in the game. In other words, Miles implied that the plays that were run were the plays that were called, for the most part. (That contradicts what Brandon Harris reportedly said in this article.) He added that they would have liked to have been more balanced, but “frankly the game didn’t call for it.”

    Ignoring completely the comments about Harris not checking anything they didn't tell him to. We won the game because of a missed FG on the very last play and Miles said the game didn't call for more balance?

    It doesn't shock me that you would try to pass the blame off on someone else.

    I don't think Miles cares about what Success Jacksonville State or Louisville had against Auburn. Miles is still going to line up 2 TE's, in I formation and run directly at them. This is what he does, win or lose. CLM is of the minority opinion that his team is physically talented enough to let the defense know a head of time what he is going to do, and dare them to stop it. Wall meet head.

    Apparantly you don't like winning because we lost that championship game because of the 86th ranked offense. You are telling me that you would not have wanted a top ranked offense to go with the best defense we ever had. You never want improvement?

    I understand your love for Lesticles. I believe he has been great for LSU. As Americans it is not only our right to question our leaders, but our responsibilty. It is obvious that our offense. under Les, has not been very good. I just want it to be much better, so we have an opportunity to win even more. Is that really too much to ask?

    Its been said that people with dementia can remember events of the past but can't remember to wipe their own drool off their chins.

    Then I'd have demanded a refund from the voodoo practitioner I paid to jinx their kicker.
