Absolutely not. He makes lots of interesting points and writes in a coherent manner. Obviously you know that his answers to most of those questions will be "No", but it doesn't mean that these kinds of things should be ignored. Most of the writers on Rivals and Scout haven't worked as scouts or coaches either, yet they have created a pretty good model for evaluating players.

Most of the political commentators on television and radio have no experience in government, elected office, or in think thanks that work with government. Hell, a decent percentage aren't even college graduates. Does that mean that no one just discuss politics except for a specific political elite?

Of course not, and the same kind of thinking should be applied to sports, movies, or any other field.

This may be the worst post that I have ever seen on any of the boards that I am affliated with. Did you observe these young men at camp? Did you evaluate the upside of these two excellent young men? Have you any training in evauating talent? How did you form your judgment of their lack of upside? What does Saban putting the best players on the field have to do with the ability of these two young men? Do you have a problem with the guys that Les has on special teams? Which players do you think should not be on the LSU special team? And you made this evaluation on your own and have never seen them play.


Did you read any of his post?
