@JimKleinpeter

Miles: at corner we are looking at Collins and Mills
@MattBoudreaux

Les Miles said he is looking at "Collins and Mills" at CB. "And some other guys." Looks like things could start as Simon-Collins-Mills.
@Sheadixon

I just told them the truth, Miles said.
@GLaneyESPN

First two options at corner to replace Mathieu on D are Jalen Collins and Jalen Mills.
@Tiger_Rag

LSU coach Les Miles: "Difficult emotions" telling team about Mathieu's dismissal. "Nobody in the room was happy, including (Miles)."

@JimKleinpeter

We don't need open wounds when we go out and play.
@GLaneyESPN

LSU coach Les Miles: At nickel back, says defense could use a LB or a S and leave the corners in place.
@RandyRosetta

Miles: A LB can be used as a nickel or a safety. Miles not tipping hand on who.
@GLaneyESPN

Miles on telling the team about Tyrann: "i told them the truth"
@MattBoudreaux

At nickel back Miles concedes there are a number of ways to go. But two young guys are main options.
@Tiger_Rag

LSU coach Les Miles: Replacing Mathieu at nickel is an ongoing audition. Could be combination of guys.
@RandyRosetta

Miles when asked about nickel back, he won't say who they are looking at. Trying different combinations. LSU
@JimKleinpeter

LSU coach Les Miles: Says true true freshman Jalen Mills ran at CB with the first team in Mathieu's spot.
@RandyRosetta

Jalen Mills played first-team corner. Miles did not specify injured players.
@GLaneyESPN

Miles wouldn't say who, but did divulge it could be a LB. Maybe one of the freshmen?
@Tiger_Rag

Miles:Jalen Mills ran at 1st team corner. Micah Eugene is pretty athletic, has the ability to cover. Fast twitch. LSU
@JimKleinpeter

Miles: Passively involved with Mathieu's recruitment.
@GLaneyESPN

Interesting. Miles just said Jalen Mills took a lot of the first team reps today opposite Simon at CB. Not Colllins.
@Tiger_Rag

Miles: Passively involved with who Tyrann Mathieu talks to for transfer. Following it closely. LSU
@JimKleinpeter

LSU coach Les Miles: Says he is passively involved in Mathieu's pending transfer. "I want what's best for Tyrann."
@RandyRosetta

Nobody in the room was happy, including me. We understand we have to go on, get healed & play football. Coach on telling team abt Mathieu
@LSUfball

Les Miles has been asked about who replaces Mathieu in the nickel. He said they have auditions ongoing. CB/LB/S all mentioned.
@Sheadixon

Miles: "Would like for Tyrann to be in an environment that would be conducive to his developing and getting his degree."
@GLaneyESPN

Miles: No reason to put restrictions on Mathieu's transfer location. LSU
@JimKleinpeter

Miles doesn't feel there's a need to put restrictions on Mathieu's transfer options. Not with current places he's looking.
@Tiger_Rag

Les Miles said there has not been any reason to put a restriction on Mathieu's transfer. Buzz outside LSU is still McNeese St.
@Sheadixon

I think our team has a lot of quality people, a lot of quality leaders. There is an understanding on the things that need to take place.
@GLaneyESPN

LSU's Les Miles: "We have a lot of quality people on our team, lot of quality leaders. There's an understanding of what we need to do."
@RandyRosetta

Miles: Losing to Tennessee after Katrina was as bad as anything that has happened.
@GLaneyESPN

LSU coach Les Miles: Still in good spirits -- compares 2005 loss at home to Tennessee to a natural disaster.
@RandyRosetta

Miles: "I like where we are at. I think there's energy in. I think we're aggressive."
@GLaneyESPN

@GLaneyESPN: Miles: Losing to Tennessee after Katrina was as bad as anything that has happened.

@JimKleinpeter

LSU coach Les Miles: "We have safeties more than Micah (Eugene) who can go and cover."
@RandyRosetta

LSU coach Les Miles: "I think Ronald Martin has good cover skills."
@RandyRosetta

Miles: "Some safeties that can cover and can do both." Eugene, Martin
@GLaneyESPN

Les Miles said Micah Eugene has pretty good cover skills. Also mentioned Ronald Martin as a S that can cover.
@Sheadixon

LSU coach Les Miles: "Each year is different. Each year is developing team and there's going to be definite hurdles to overcome."
@RandyRosetta

Miles: "Each year's different. Each year is developing a team and different hurdles to overcome."
@GLaneyESPN

LSU coach Les Miles:"I think that this team understands that they have not played a game yet and that they're going to improve."
@RandyRosetta

Now a few LSU players coming to talk. Dworaczyk, Mett and Mingo.
