And I'm saying I get it too.

I want all of the top notch players to come to LSU but I can understand why a recruit would think in a certain way (and sometimes that certain way isn't beneficial to LSU).

For example, I understand why some people vote for Obama. I don't personally agree with it, I would never do it (didn't do it), but I can understand how someone with certain circumstances would do so.

The OP was right. I'd say LSU is probably in the top 10 of QB talent (including this class) when looking toward the future.

quote:

so Freeze took a back to back 2 win program and won 6 games and returns prolly %90 of the starters and he's reached his pinnacle? You sounds like you know a lot about football.



Ole Miss is going to be, at best, a mid tier SEC West school. To think that Ole Miss has potential to go further is ignorant. In the long run, Arkansas, LSU, Alabama, and Texas A&M, and Auburn are all going to outperform Ole Miss consistently. In the short run, all of them except maybe Auburn will outperform them, and Mississippi State will be very competitive.

quote:

Freeze is more willing to throw than Miles has been. Mett had 2400 yards this year and a no name, nobody QB named bo wallace who joined a 2 win team had 2800 this year.

RR had prolly one of the best receiving years at LSU under Miles with 900 yards. Moncrief had 900 in Freeze's first year with a no name QB and a program that was about to flat line.



Ok. So, if you are making the case that LSU isn't a high powered passing attack that would make sense. But, that's not what you said. You said that if you were an out of state WR, you wouldn't look at LSU as compared to Ole Miss. That's an entirely different statement.

You are one of those guys whose opinion is easily swayed by singular events (such as a 6 win Ole Miss season). In truth, Ole Miss is not on the same planet as LSU, and as it relates to this argumetn, WR recruits will consistently choose LSU over Ole Miss.

In short, your analysis is very shortsighted and wrong.

that's not even close to summarize what you said. You said much more than that...

If I were an OOS WR, I wouldnt even bother looking at LSU.


It sounds to me like you are backing off your statement.

acutally, no one knows.

I said I think they will be better than 6-6 in the future. Do you disagree? If you so, you're wrong.

Freeze's offense did well last year, LSU has been pretty bad for 5 straight years. You can transfer the blame all you want to JJ but the bottom line is LSUs passing offense has underperformed for 5 years in a row.

If you watched Ole Miss' offense this year, it is a lot more open than ours is and that attracts kids, period. Slants, out routes, and blocking in the I formation doesn't really attract top flight national recruits that want the football in their hands. That may be hard for you to undertand but I dont knwo what else to say.

Obviously everyone on this board realizes Ole Miss is not going to win the amount of games LSU will, but winning a NC is not the #1 priority of every big time HS recruit.


In short, I'm 100% correct.
