I understand what you are saying too. However, it hasn't been a decade with perilloux. Furthermore, that series of events led to a snowball of events that led to a generation of qbs that weren't prepared. We kept playing catch up. I actually believe that we have just now caught up with a seasoned junior qb next year, and with hopefully a good recruit coming. We all want to see the qb succeed more, don't get me wrong, but there have been circumstances.

Secondly, I'm not making if statements to make excuses about bama: they have beat us. What I am saying is that in any other conference we own that conference. We aren't that far behind bama, and before we go changing coaching staffs for "better coaches" you better consider the fact that they may not be any better. Jimbo, for instance, is a fine coach. But I am 100% sure that he would have lost to bama by 30 this year, and I'm 90% sure we would have beat him. FSU is a top tier school with a supposed top tier coach. Get it? I would agree with the argument that Lsu has access to in state talent without competition unlike any other school. But don't kid yourself into thinking these coaches aren't a huge reason we keep the talent, develop the talent into nfl stars, and win. I can't wait to see the look on little Nicky's face when we finally pass him, and we will.
