Ive been seeing a lot of LSU is the most talented team in the country. Les only wins with talent, we are the only team equal to bama. So i took rivals rankings, because that's what everyone seems to use to bitch about our rankings. Yes our fans bitch about our rankings then turn around and say we are the most talented team in the country. Strange, I know.

I have 25 teams here. Some because they have been top teams over the past few years and some just because we play them. I used 5 years, because if you redshirted in 08 it's possible to still be on one of these teams this year. I dont know enough about other programs to find out how many people have left early for whatever reasons.


1. Bama= 1.8
2. USCw= 5
3. Texas= 5.4
4. UF= 6.2
5. FSU= 6.8
6. LSU= 8.6
7. UGA= 9
8. tOSU= 9.4
9. OU= 10.2
10. Auburn= 12
11. Michigan= 13.2
12. ND= 13.4
13. Miami= 16.2
14. Tenn= 16.8
15. Oregon= 17.8
16. Clemson= 18
17. USCe= 19
18. Tamu= 19.4
19. Va Tech= 23.8
20. Nebraska= 24
21. Stanford= 24.6
22. Ole Miss= 24.8
23. Arkansas= 25.6
24. UNC= 26
25. UW= 32.8

So as you can see there seems to be a gap between bama and everyone else. Not as big of a gap btw LSU, UF, UGA, and AUB. So please explain how Les Miles does less with more.

No there a few posters on here that constantly bash miles. they will be the first to bash him when we have a class ranked outside of the top 10, then be the first to say we have the most talent in the country.

I have seen multiple posts this season that Les Miles does les than any other coach, but has the most talent. That is where the does less with more came from. I am simply stating some of our fans are retarded.

It's no secret that Bama is the most talented team in the nation. They have it there like cordwood. Prolly have another number 1 class this year too

Rivals actually has us the highest. Use scout or espn and we are even lower.

Ok...I gotcha now...

Yes. We could very easily be Texas, Auburn, Michigan, etc. who get tons of talent (according to the rankings) and perform WAY below that .

He is saying that even though several teams consistently have more highly regarded recruiting classes, LSU consistently has better college/NFL talent then most/all of them. In stead of Miles getting credit for being better at scouting and developing talent than them, he gets criticized as somehow having more talent volunteer to show up at LSU and pissing it away.

exactly.... Im just tired of seeing the bs about miles. How is he such a bad coach if hes 3-3 against the best coach and most talented team in the country.

Yeah i see the he can only recruit, not develop talent. Well 15 freshman have played from classes ranked 18th. The class before that was 6th.

Bama has had 1,1,5, and 1. So in reality Bama should win it every year, not LSU.
