Criticizing LSU as a place to go for offensive talent seems silly IMO when you look at the offensive players around the league
that comment obviously was about college. the NFL success shows they have the talent to do a lot more in college and something is holding them back. i mean a bunch of LSU guys are having immediate impact in a vastly superior league

And I'm a Florida fan, so I should know all about offensive talent "dying". Dude took that comment to heart :(

All of the guys coming out and having an impact were impact players at LSU before they left. OB, Bowe, Landry, Mett, Flynn, Hill, Faulk, etc all had very good production their last year at LSU before they jumped to the pros.
It would be nice if LSU was the kind of school where these guys redshirted for their first year and stayed another four years but the money lure for kids coming from less than affluent homes makes that a pretty tough sell. Instead we're seeing them mature on the field and not be close to finished products until they finally leave the program.
I'm hopeful that Leonard Fournette will be a special enough talent to be productive for at least three years, it would be hard to see him staying past his true junior season.
