Les Miles is one tough SOB

Posted on: May 2, 2008 9:45 am

Score: 89

What did Ryan Perrilloux do?

Let the speculation begin, but let the bidding start high. Perrilloux wasn't kicked off the LSU team after being investigated for his alleged role in a counterfeit ring. He wasn't kicked off after his alleged role in a nightclub brawl. He wasn't kicked off the team after using a fake ID or skipping classes or team meetings.

He wasn't even a junior yet, Ryan Perrilloux. That's quite a rap sheet for a college sophomore. But even after all that, he was going to be a junior this upcoming season for LSU coach Les Miles.

Until Friday, when Miles -- or someone above Miles -- finally kicked Perrilloux off the team for not fulfilling "his obligation as an LSU student-athlete."

So what does that mean? It means Perrilloux messed up really bad this time, so bad that even a shameless huckster like Les Miles had no choice but to part with his starting quarterback.

Not sure where this has come from. The guy says all along that he is staying at LSU and when he does people call him crazy. He gives the student athlete several chances to straighten up and when he does kick off the one player who could make or break this season for LSU and you bash the guy. I bet you it was a very small thing that Ryan did but it was the last straw. I know you don't care but in my eyes you have lost all credibility. If Les was like Bowden, or Tom Osborne, or other coaches he would have kept Ryan on the team. Instead, he made a tough decision that will cost the team at least 3, if not more, victories. I applaud Miles however because even if you don't think it, Les Miles is a man of his word. I haven't seen or heard of anything that contradicts that. It's disappointing to see a media guy give someone a hard time who just kicked off a former #1 recruit and starting QB. [ Reply to Comment ]
Big Roll Tide Reputation: 94 Level: All-Star Since: Sep 19, 2006	Posted on: May 2, 2008 10:44 am Score: 81 Les Miles is one tough SOB Rumor is that RP's mom was getting money through a casino down there and the reason why he wasn't kicked off before was that she threatened to turn LSU in. If true, then the boosters finally came up with such a big payoff that she won't talk now for fear of tax evasion. And, to your point that "Who ever heard of a college kid skipping class, involved in a fight at a bar, using a fake id". I have heard of football players doing that, but ALL three??, and add to that the conterfiet scam. What kind of lessons are we teaching kids when we let them have 3 or 4 chances and then not do anything? That's not how real life works, only in NCAA big time sports where winning is all that counts.

They had the 7th best QB in the nation (Jarrett Lee) in 2006 and the 8th best this year (Jordan Jefferson). LSU won't have that big of a drop off at QB. It's not like RP had a ton of starting experience. [ Reply to Comment ]

RP should have been kicked off the team months ago and I think the only reason he was kicked off now was because Miles was forced to do it by the AD. [ Reply to Comment ]

It just gives my Appalachian State Mountaineers more hope to pull the upset on August 30th just like we did to Michigan last year! GO APPS! [ Reply to Comment ]

Please explain why you are not just some D-grade internet hack writer who has attacked a respected coach who gave a troubled youth a few chances before finally making the tough call to boot him. Please elaborate. [ Reply to Comment ]
