Rate the LSU footbal program from 1-100 on your own personal scale

Looking for a number rating 1-100 for the entire program - not just coaching, not just players, not just facilites. The whole program and where it stands right now in your opinion.
Feel free to explain and bash or praise the usual suspects if you want. But I ask that you put the number rating at the top of your post.

a lot of that is due to factors that will always be there. we'll always be in the SEC, with 92,000 or so fans that live and breathe LSU
we're not at the top right now, but we're basically one game away.
les miles has his weaknesses, but he's quotable and charismatic, and he wins. you never know what will happen next.
jarret lee has been forcing himself into more playing time, and the coaches are smart enough to give it to him.
let's not overreact to our one loss. how many teams go into auburn and beat them that day? if we beat bama my rating goes back over 90. if we lose it drops to 80

79--which is school is a C
25 points each earned for spec teams, offense, defense, coaching
spec teams-23--very good players, no big weakness here but neither kicker is an all-american
offense--16--o-line and QB play are keeping it low--WR's are great but do have the drops. RB has been solid
defense--22--solid but last game alone drops them.
Coaching--18--clock management drops it along with offense playcalling.

85 and rising. virtually all non-game areas get 100. get a QB and about 3 new coaches on the offense and we will improve substantially.

It is about a 96. Very strong.
ETA there will be a number of people who don't understand the term program and will instead give their assessment of this year's team.

A 92-94 rating IMO.

100
LSU runs a top notch program as well as anyone in the country. I don't take away from the score if players don't live up to their potential or coach's freeze in pressure situations. Its the program that gives the team the opportunity to succeed in a respectable manner.

70 and no comment, Have a great day!

78...lots of room for improvement.

my own personal scale is...
1 = I would rather watch a porno with Whoopi Goldberg, Rosie O'Donnell and Micheal Moore than an LSU game
and
100 = I'd pass up a 3-way with the most recent 2 Playboy centerfolds to watch and LSU game
I'd probably rate the program at 99.99999999999 and fit the 3-way in at halftime

100. The peogram's past present and future are as good as or better than any other school's.

Though Tiger Stadium needs a face lift, it is still a great stadium and the rest of the football facilities are grade A. We have talent for days at every position, even QB (I blame coaching).
Our recruiting base is second to none. We get top flight talent every year and are consistently ranked in the top 5.
We have a problem with development and coaching and those two things go hand in hand. Are JL or JJ world beaters? No not really, but Matt Maulk and Flynn weren't either (Flynn better than Maulk). The difference between Flynn and Maulk and the current set of QBs is coaching. If a kid cannot read a D and make his progressions, I blame coaching. If a kid consistently holds the ball WAY too long, I blame coaching. If we cannot mold one of these QBs into an adequate starter, capable to not wrecking the ship, I blame coaching. I mean, clock management? Really? We are still screwing up basic football? How on earth can someone not recognize this is a problem and address it in 07 much less 2010?
LSU has top talent, but they lack discipline and proper coaching and that can be seen in several facets of the game. I am sure Crowton and Les are great guys and I hope the best, but I fear they are just not cut out to be SEC coaches. Imagine what some of the other big names in the sport could do with this roster?
I guess if I was forced to give a grade it would be an 80. An 80 is good for a mid tier team, but LSU should not be a mid tier team, not with all of this talent on the roster...

60, just passing but unsatisfactorily.
Again, some fans care about how you get there, while others care only that you got there. In other words wins (no matter how poorly won are wins to some).
I don't agree with that being a former coach. If the way you win is poor, than the quality of your team is poor even if you win.

If I were ranking us on an NCAA (xbox/playstaion game) scale...
89... Talent everywhere but QB.
But irl with the coach factor and leadership I'd say high 70's
