| 6 of Top 95 in Draft - Not too bad Posted by Football_Freak on 4/26 at 9:41 pm This is great recruiting material. Not that others like Bama can't say the same or better, but this draft is speaking volumes about getting players and developing them into serious draft picks.
CLM. You might not like his ways, but the dude leads the program to amazing accumulation of talent....Posted on:  Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| Rivers + Cam Posted by Football_Freak on 4/20 at 10:00 pm Mett had to struggle with inadequate OC/QB coaching, leaving him to experience tough SEC defenses that left him a bit less than ready to shine.
Rivers, who has not been thrown to the wolves yet, has a chance to get groomed by a real strong QB/OC coach and to build towards maximizing his best perf...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| Jennings - All we have is a hunch Posted by Football_Freak on 4/18 at 9:27 pm Like others, I have a very special feeling about Jennings. As a recruiting junkie, I was impressed when I first heard about him as a HS Jr, and how well he expressed himself in a few interviews. When watching his film, I kept thinking to myself "This is the guy Miles wanted Jefferson to be", as he w...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| LSU D in '13 Posted by Football_Freak on 4/9 at 6:49 pm Experts will lean to assuming that the LSU D is losing too many to the NFL draft to allow the Tigers to do their classic "re-loading".
We have been spoiled with super talent for a long period of time, so you can't blame some for selecting that side of the argument.
I'm not buying it.

| LSU's Run for the Roses has begun Posted by Football_Freak on 3/15 at 8:53 pm Ahh....Spring is in the air....Spring Football, that is !
And exciting days appear to be ahead for the Tiger nation.
Miles operates best when he empowers people he truly trusts. Cam and Chief meet that description from all accounts.
Miles is poised to stay in the roles that He excels in, le...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| Looking forward to Alleva Letter Posted by Football_Freak on 2/27 at 2:10 pm I imagine it is coming any day.
With a new OC with Pro experience, and a strong recruiting class, and the stadium expansion in full swing, he is probably looking forward to this letter more than the last 2 or so.
Bring on the spring game !!

| Question: What percent of offensive reigns will Cam have ? Posted by Football_Freak on 2/16 at 9:09 pm
I guess I have some Missouri in me after the last 5 years or so....but I am hopeful at the same time. Ok, that means I do not have much of an idea of what will happen in the Fall...
so, I am curious what other interested parties are thinking ...

| The State of the Tigers Address - DAMN STRONG Posted by Football_Freak on 2/12 at 12:23 pm The State of the Tigers is STRONG - DAMN STRONG.
While there is a constant perception among many that the CLM-led Tigers, at any moment, is about to cascade to tragedy, the state of the Tigers remains DAMN STRONG.
To many, there exists this ever-present tension and anxiety level that things a...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| The Alleva Letter in-work Posted by Football_Freak on 2/10 at 6:58 pm It can now be developed and sent out.
It will talk about the strong recruiting class.
It will talk about the exciting stadium expansion progress (and infer the commensurate reduction of your wallet forthcoming)
It will not have to address the loss of 3 of the last 4 bowl games.
It will b...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| The Fournette Gamble Posted by Football_Freak on 2/10 at 10:40 am Not signing a RB in the 2013 signing class facilitates Miles's recruitment of LF, and also allows us to meet needs across the board in this class.
But, who thinks it will make any difference at all to LF?
Bama drafted tons of great backs in this class, so maybe that adds together with the seem...Posted on: LSU Recruiting BoardJump to Post • View Topic |
| Considering 1/9 and 12/31, this recruiting class is awesome Posted by Football_Freak on 2/6 at 6:11 pm Miles keeps pulling them in. It seems his living room charm can rise up above anything. Rueben Randle and others tweets and all the bad vibes about 1/9 and 12/31, and he just pushes all that shite aside and rocks another great class of recruits.
Miles's ability to manage relationships and the recr...Posted on: LSU Recruiting BoardJump to Post • View Topic |
| Anthony Jennings = Miles' Ultimate QB Posted by Football_Freak on 2/6 at 5:47 pm This guy is the bestr combination of what the fan base seeks and what Miles has a propensity to prefer.
I watched all of his film several times.
He can run ANY OFFENSE. He is mobile. He has a strong arm. He has really good field vision. He is composed in the pocket. He knows when to tuck and r...Posted on: LSU Recruiting BoardJump to Post • View Topic |
| Delusion: It's no longer a Bama thing Posted by Football_Freak on 1/8 at 7:52 pm They have every right to all their claims. Two legendary coaches on their resume with multiple nat'l championships. Winners of 3 of the last 4 Natty's.
Looks like the more delusional are those who think Miles is going to hire and empower an Offensive Coordinator.
Just so you know....Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| What is He thinking? Posted by Football_Freak on 1/4 at 7:10 pm Regarding Simon....
I guess he is thinking that since he resembles Mo, that he has similar talent?
Or maybe that his measurable and being "coached up" will get him a high pick?
Because he has regressed from his Freshman performance to his Sophomore year, and then stayed there,or maybe even ...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |

| Who else has become pleased with Chicken Bowl ? Posted by Football_Freak on 12/28 at 1:44 pm The exposure could very well be more than a NYD bowl.
Since we have been playing the GADome venue the last 5-7 years, our recruiting from Ga and SC has been better (Minter, Montgomery)

| So Chief is ours for the long haul Posted by Football_Freak on 12/4 at 4:59 pm With Strong to Tenn, they should be set for the long haul.
I like Chief, even though the last few games have me scratching my head almost as if I would with the LSU O.
And hopefully Strong raids the Alabama-Georgia-Florida recruiting areas and stays away from LA !
If so, I hope he re-builds...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| We're so spoiled (myself included). Posted by Football_Freak on 12/3 at 10:26 am We really have become as delusional as Bama fans.
We only look at teams of our stature doing better than us in a given year, and mostly ignore those we are doing much better than (Texas, many others).
Sure, the system does not work best for all SEC teams in a given year (such as this one for u...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| If Bama loses, Bama will be 1-2 in SEC CG in the last 13 seasons Posted by Football_Freak on 12/1 at 8:56 am That's right. Bama has only been to the SEC CG twice since 2000, and has gone 1-1 in those 2 trips.
If Bama loses today, that would mean only 1 SEC Championship in the 13-year-old millineum since the 2000 season.
On the other hand, they are within sniffing distance of winning the SEC 2 out of ...Posted on:  SEC RantJump to Post • View Topic |

| Corey Raymond and the Chief Posted by Football_Freak on 11/25 at 7:30 am The back half of the season's pass defense, and overall defense, has been a big disappointment.
One has to wonder how much of those issues relate to losing Ron Cooper, and how much of it relates to not having a true shutdown corner for the first time in a long time. Also, not having 2 blazing fas...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
| It's all about setting up for BCSNCG Rose Bowl Stadium appearance in Jan '14 Posted by Football_Freak on 11/23 at 8:00 am Many of us would like to make the trip to Pasadena this year. That looks very unlikely.
However, if Chief/Miles can convince some of the Juniors on defense to return for their Sr campaign, LSU will probably be the favorite next season to make it to the Rose Bowl venue when it matters most, for ne...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |

| LSU becoming an Offensive-more-than-Defensive oriented team (for 2013)? Posted by Football_Freak on 11/18 at 10:23 am I don't need any lectures about Chief Chavis. His record stands for itself. He is a great DC.
But, this year, in key moments, it was not the D that kept us in the game. It was the Offense.
This is a strange thing to see. The Offense bailing out our D. It has been the case for the last 3 games,...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |

1) On the McCarron running TD at the end of the first half, the pass coverage scheme (with no LB in the middle) left the run totally open. Downs had no chance to cover the run up the middle.
2) The dreaded prevent de...Posted on: Tiger RantJump to Post • View Topic |
