Why can't he put out offensive talent if he is an offensive coach?

Um, he does: Russell, Bowe, Davis, Flynn, Hester, Doucet, LaFell, Q. Johnson, Holliday, Barksdale, Ridley, Randle.

The 1 thing that Les does great is that he gets great assistant coaches and doesnt mess with how they do things. He also lets some of his top athletes play defense, which is sorta rare. Most coaches put their top athletes of O, but Les recruits them and puts them on D.

Not here in the SEC buddy

LSU gets the credit........not one person

Miles is the CEO

These guys are paid to get them better and to the next level.

By most of your arguements here......Saban should not get credit for Julio, Ingram, Richardson, etc. because we KNOW he is not an offensive guru.

ESPN told me yesterday that Saban easily develops the most NFL talent.

ESPN also got Bama in the NC and talked about them more than the sox and Yanks etc etc. Should I go on

It's actually like 50% Saban recruits, but so what? You said "put out" offensive talent. Those are guys Les put out. Did they not all achieve most of their success under Miles? I guess Saban doesn't get any credit for Rolando McClain or Javy Arenas or Andre Smith, either?

Take a look at all the LSU receivers currently starting in the NFL...

Oh and Seattle's starting Quarterback.

He kinda does. They'll have potentially 5 1st rounders tonight.

That shouldn't detract from anything Miles/Chavis have accomplished.

He definitely doesn't showcase offensive talent, in fact he hides it to the best of his ability.

The only top LSU WR I can think of is Dwayne Bowe, Early Doucet is starting to do things, and Lafell is still breaking in

Yes, maybe Russell, Bowe, Davis, Flynn, Hester, Doucet, LaFell, Barksdale, Ridley, etc, would all have gotten drafted and gotten a fair shake in the NFL if only they hadn't had Les Miles purposefully hiding their talents and holding them back. You know he just hates to see his players produce.

No one said "top WR." They said "starting WR." We have three of them under the age of 27, with another likely after tonight or tomorrow.
