The poll placed LSU out side the the top 10 teams predicted and that is exactly where LSU ended up at the end of the regular season. One New Orleans sports writer thought the coach's poll was wrong and that LSU would end up in the play offs.
This writer suggested in a "PolitiDose" commentary three reasons why the poll picked LSU to finish out side the top 10 and all three reasons contributed to LSU's dismal season and the way they finished, losing three of their last four games. Les Miles will still be LSU's head coach for the near future and this writer believes there will be no change in Miles philosophy of using a 20th century offense to compete in a 21st century offensive change that is ever growing.
Miles has yet to embrace the change after 11 years as head coach and is not likely to do so. The long term contract given to Miles and others is not in the best interest of LSU and college football. The game is changing so quickly and there are so many good young coaches out there more in tune with change to negate the need of long term contracts that are no incentive for a coach to change especially with the millions of dollars involved in buy outs.
The LSU people involved in Miles long term contract have failed their obligation to the school and the team.
