Ran for about 30 minutes starting at 12:15 - Archived video: Lunch with Les - Week 1 (Oregon) - LSUsports.net
From the twitterverse, start from the bottom to see it order: Sheadixon Miles is now done. Players interviews coming next. About to head across the street to the football operations building. Long day... RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: On Crowton's comments -- "He's correct. It's always been LSU's offense." Sheadixon Miles was asked to comment on former OC Gary Crowton's comments that it wasn't his offense. Miles: "It's always been LSU's offense." #LSU JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: It's always been LSU's offense. I'm sure he's correct (On Gary Crowton remark that it was Les Miles offense , not his) JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: We're fortunate to having played there before. We'll try not to strain our necks looking at Jumbotron over the field Sheadixon Miles said DC John Chavis got with other coordinators and coaches to prep for Oregon, but he laughed it off when asked for names. #secret RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: Said Chavis did visit with other staffs but chose not to say who. JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: Chavis went to several old buddies who have been around defense and got a number of ideas (on defensing Oregon) RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: "(Chavis) went to several old buddies and got some ideas." Sheadixon Miles on punishment cont... "I'm not going to punish a team that has been punished many times." JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: They recognize this is an issue with me. Discipline that I picked, that I will dispense the discipline. Sheadixon Miles on punishment from the fight: "We've cut back on the running at this point ... There's a point in time where it's enough." #LSU JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: Cutting back on punishment running. Put our feet on the groun and look forward to play an opponent. JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: Auburn's front four on defense made enough negative plays, made it sticky running inside, changed the course of game. JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: Auburn possessed the ball, threw ball well in that game. Came up with big plays. Explosivness on defense JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: We can go to option B, Mettenberger, in a heartbeat. JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: On Lee, Strong committment to get his degree. Transfer didn't match his experiences here. It was very unselfish JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: If (LSU players) they are anything like their coach, they're pent up and are anxious to be allowed to pursue the field RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: "If they're anything like their coach, they feel like they've been pent up." Sheadixon Good line from Les on his QB situation: "If there's a guy who's been baptized under fire and had to learn on the run it's Jarrett Lee." #LSU RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: "Our team took the lesson that they needed to prepare this summer." JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: We look at Darron Thomas as a talented QB. We recruited Russell Shepard in that same class. Didn't want logjam. Tiger_Rag Miles on players who could miss the Oregon game due to injury: "I think [Dworaczyk] is the only one we’ve counted out at this point." RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: On Oregon QB Darron Thomas -- "We looked at him coming out of high school as a very talented quarterback." Sheadixon Miles said some guys are nicked, but the only person they are counting out with injury for Oregon is left guard Josh Dworaczyk. #LSU RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: Dworaczyk is the only one counted out so far. RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: More on Jarvis Landry "I don't know if he's in trouble in the juducial system at all. ... We will plan to have him." Sheadixon Miles on Landry: "The only thing I know is that he's spoken candidly to anyone who asked. We plan to have him until we know differently." RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: On Jarvis Landry -- "What I know is he's a very talented player and he's competing like heck." Sheadixon Miles keeps talking up the looks RB Jakhari Gore and QB Jerrard Randall are giving the first-team defense. Oregon-like speed coming at them. RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: On Lee -- "He's pretty excited." JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: Lee's pretty excited. Certainly he did not want this to happen. If there's a guy who was baptized under fire, its Lee JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: This is as talented a team as we've seen. They have speed at all the key positions. RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: On Oregon "This is as talented team as we've seen. They've got speed at all the positions." JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: Great cooperative attitude inn coaching staff room, all off. coaches have chipped in. Comfortable working relationship RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: Says Karnell Hatcher has been a pleasant surprise at LB. JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: I don't think over time the reputation has changed. They understand this is very much a quality team. Tiger_Rag Miles: "I think Josh Dworaczyk, we might lose for some time." He added he may undergo surgery within the next two weeks JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: Josh Dworaczyk will undergo surgery in next 10 days, 2 weeks. Lael Collins will play. Sheadixon According to Miles, Josh Dworaczyk will have surgery within the next 10 days. Not good news for that offensive line. #LSU RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: "Josh Dworaczyk, we might lose for a time. ... I think he'll be operated on." JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: We have not (indication of SHepard's availability). We will seek reinstatement. That's next process, ongoing JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: Stephen rivers in position to be our third team QB for some time now. We'll look at young guys Sheadixon Miles was asked what freshmen would play vs Oregon. His answer: wide receiver Odell Beckham and offensive lineman La'el Collins. #LSU JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: Freshmen who could play, Odell Beckham has a comfort of competition, nothing will take him out of his focus. JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: There's aheartfelt loss in missing 2 players. That being said, it's all about going forward with diff cast of chartrs Sheadixon Miles said that right now Jarrett has advantages over Mettenberger. Didn't say if Mett would be given any snaps against Oregon. #LSU JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: We're seeing how Zach's (Mettenberger) coming. I would not forgo opportunity to play him if situation presents. Sheadixon Miles on QB: "It's a different style of quarterback, but it's still the same issue. Get the ball to the guy who can make plays for us." #LSU JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: We're going to run the football. Our tailbacks will have tos tep in there and possess the ball, allow us to push ball Sheadixon Miles said the team will adjust from the dual-threat of Jefferson to the pocket passer Lee is. Talked about TE's becoming more involved. RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: On Lee not being as mobile "We have to make an adjustment, but I don't necessarily think it's different guys." JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: We have to make an adjustment at QB, not necessarily different guys. RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: "He's (Jarrett Lee) really looking forward to a great year." JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: On Lee, he can play with poise. There's an every play responsibility at QB position. Sheadixon First question from the media to Miles is about Jarrett Lee's poise. Miles referenced his TD for the win at Florida and the drive vs. Tenn. JimKleinpeter #LSU Coach Les Miles: oregon defense is athletic group and play it as well as anyone. Offense is touted but defense plays as well. RandyRosetta #LSU coach Les Miles: "Defensively I'd like to tell you they were less talented, but they're not. ... They're a very athletic group." Sheadixon Miles on Oregon: "Chip (Kelly) does a great job preparing them." Miles talked about the up-tempo offense - noted 6-8 seconds between snaps.
