Funny thing is the latest confirmation used to jack with Les was that all the GM in the NFL know that we had too much talent to get beat up by Bama. Yet these same GM in the NFL took the Bama players over the LSU players all over the board. hmmm
Tigerfoot, Your post is laughable. First off false, we had two players drafted in the top 15, same as bama, we had the first db, first DT, and first WR. So just because LSU didn't have many draft eligible players on offense better than Trent doesn't mean that Bama players were getting drafted by GMs all over the board over our players. Second reason you are false: most of our talent were sophomores this year, why don't you go take a look at the recruiting board and look at the thread for scout's grades for the players draft eligible next year and then come back here with a better point.

The sad fact is that a lot of the mouth breathers that hate on the lsu football program and coaches on this site seem to actually revel in the fact that they have an excuse to continue to shite on the lsu football program. You would think that fans of a team would actually support such an exciting season and view what happened at the end a disappointment but not relentlessly trash their team because of it. I really hope a lot of these people aren't actually lsu alums. I would be embarrassed if they were because they are devaluing my degree.
LOL at this post. I love it when the pot calls the kettle black.

So did Jefferson and Peterson. Oh wait they didn't get drafted either . This should be a lesson to all player. Never bash on a college as successful as LSU for personal reason.
I know this is a little different situation considering how high Mo was set to, and did get drafted, but before the Cowboys picked him, they actually called Miles to inquire. This is partly because the Cowboys had ZERO conversation with Claiborne before drafting him Thursday. But it shows that when a coach looks fondly and speaks fondly of a player, others listen.

I disagree with this completely. And whether or not you are right, this is not something that an NFL coach will look fondly on at all. In the NFL they have even more freedom to speak out against their coach's decisions.

LSU leads BCS schools in wins, the SEC in wins, and has as many SEC titles since 05 as any school in the SEC. Yeah boy, a lot of correcting needs to be done with LSU football. Hey, what other screen name do you post under or should I ask what school do you really follow?
