re: Players come to LSU to go to the NFL

Who gives a frick if Jimmy at XYZ University wants to come back and play for dear old U?

The fans with their heads in the sand are acting like this happens everywhere. Some are acting like all players across the country who could be drafted anywhere in the draft, 5th rd, 6th rd, 7th rd, are leaving school early.

The fact is that only very few players around the country leave school before their eligibility is up. In the last few years we've seen sure fire top 5 picks of the first round in the NFL draft return to school. But for some reason, LSU is the only school that has players that need to make money.

By what??? The AP? Ok well we beat SC and aTm in their own house. So what does that poll really mean?

The only poll that matters, the final poll. We got lapped by 5 other teams in the SEC during the 2012 season. Don't give me the, "But we beat A&M and South Carolina..." Texas A&M beat Alabama, and I don't see anybody crowning the Aggies national champions.

The only conclusion that anyone can make about the LSU 2012 season is that with all of these NFL-ready players, LSU woefully underperformed.
