quote:

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..

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.

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

So Saban = “any quality coach”?

Nope. What I'm saying is any top coaching staff in Baton Rouge, (which LSU can DEFINITELY attract), will do what bama is doing or better. If the minimum expectations I listed above are not met by the staff at LSU, it should be considered coaching malpractice. If you ever get to see Jimmy Johnson comment on the LSU job, he will talk about it in similar terms, and I would hope you agree he knows more about college fb than you and I combined.
