This would be my MINIMUM expectation for LSU fb if I was ad:

1) NEVER have a season finish with a single digit in the win column.

2) Four playoff appearances every 10 years.

3) One natty every 10 years.

These are MINIMUM expectations for the LSU fb program we have now with facilities, resources, etc..

These expectations should/would be easily exceeded by any quality coach. (See saban at bama).

Yeah, that's not realistic in the SEC, especially in years you play a true OOC team. Hell, look at next year. Losses to Texas with their Senior QB, @ Auburn and @Florida aren't out of the realm of possibility. That could easily end up 9-3 with all 3 losses being to top 10 teams.

I’m good with 1 and 3. Four playoff appearances every 10 years is a stretch and would be by far the most successful run in LSU history. Since Saban came to LSU (20 years) we have finished 5 seasons in the AP top 4.

Keep in mind that you’re basically saying LSU wins the SEC 4/10 years. Part of the problem with the tiered expectations is that the best team we will face every year is in our division, and ALL other goals hinge on winning that game. You can’t expect to get to Atlanta and/or the CFP unless you beat them. Sucks to admit it, but the forst goal is having a competitive run with Alabama.

So Saban = “any quality coach”?
