On Sunday, LSU finally finished what it started last December, canning Les Miles in his 12th season on the job. It wasn’t necessarily a shocking move given that 1) the athletic program had to be dragged away from ejection button at the end of last season and 2) LSU, projected by many as a Playoff contender, fell to 2-2 with a humiliating road loss to Auburn on Saturday night.
"Coach Miles has done a tremendous job here and he's been a great ambassador for our University, which makes this even more difficult,” athletic director Joe Alleva said in a statement.
