LOL @ Miles still talking shit about Gunner Kiel

[bchampy]

Les Miles: Gunner Kiel didn't have "confidence", "swagger" for LSU - CBSSports

Miles: “I'm not bitter. I'm glad he stayed there. I really mean it. Here's the truth: If you don't have some swagger to you and you can step into this stadium and be able to know the advantage that you're playing with the Tigers and you're leading the program that has some real weight and clout, then you really need to stay home with your brothers.

“I don't mean that [negatively]. I'm for him. He gets a chance to come in here and compete and start on a team that is a great team. I really meant what I said. I was talking more about the confidence and swagger. I was not demeaning. If he shows up, it means he has all those things …

“I mean it honestly, if it's more about family for him, if it's more being close to home … he would have never been successful as he needed to be. I mean it very respectfully …

“The guy we got now [Zach Mettenberger], he's a confident son of a buck. He's a throwin', tough kid. If he continues to develop and learn and grow as a leader, no question.”

Sounds like his ass is severely chapped.

And it continues:

Les Miles on Gunner Kiel (again): it "takes a different breed of cat" to play for LSU - CBSSports.com

Let it go, Miles.

Its been kinda of obvious for awhile some LSU fans have a Major Inferiority Complex. Why Miles choose to emulate them is beyond me....

 

[NDHoosier101]

Jeez, the kid was a high school senior, I know it hurts to lose a 5 star recruit, but stay classy Miles...this just makes me more excited about the kid knowing Miles is so sore over losing him.

 

[yeodonie]

He must really know he needed him.

LSU is loaded at qb, don't see what the fuss is about.

Literal Translation: "I mean this respectfully, he is a pussy and couldn't play for LSU. P.S. I'm Butthurt"

My guess is, he doesn't want to get goose egged by Bama

 

[ForkEmBucky]

This man child needs to lose his job soon.

This man child needs to lose his job soon.

Nov. 3rd is going to be so bad for him it may have the fans wanting him gone yet again.

From what I've seen, I wouldn't call having Mettenberger as your guy, with a bunch of prospect behind him, 'loaded'.

 

[bchampy]

Maybe Kiel wasn't impressed by the ''Hand Clap''?

 

[sparko]

This is non-news. What is he supposed to say?? That Tiger-Nation grieves over their loss of Gunner Kiel? He was just saying, in other words, that if he didn't want to be here, that he didn't deserve to be there. He didn't call him a mama's boy. FWIW -- I like Miles. He's a class act as a coach in a conference that, over the years, has had a severe shortage of them. So what if he's a weirdo.

I haven't heard any of the actual interviews so IDK if people are actually asking Miles about Kiel or if he brings him up himself.

If reporters, etc are still asking Miles about Kiel, they're doing it because they know they'll get some page hits off of what Miles will say, but Miles needs to be more diplomatic than to keep questioning the kid's integrity or attributes. Instead of "he doesn't have enough swagger to play for us" he could just say "he chose to play somewhere else and we wish him the best" or something to that effect.

Miles is supposed to be the adult here.
