Awarding mediocrity moves LSU a lot closer to the everybody gets a trophy paradigm.

Is LSU the first SEC school to embrace such a move?

If you define mediocrity as 8-3, then
Texas A&M
Georgia
Tennessee
Miss St.
Arkansas
Auburn
Ole Miss
South Carolina
Missouri
Kentucky

And that's just the SEC...

Mediocracy=carrying a coach off the field chanting his name after beating fricking Texas A&M and finishing the season 1-3.

Well, there you you go! Problem identified-you don't know what mediocrity is.
Now the rest of us move forward with LSU.

I'm with you on the general feeling you have, but its unfair to site the carrying off the field thing. Those players do love their coach and for all accounts he was coaching in his last game and they won. Kids showed a lot of emotion last night which in a way is even more frustrating. They want to win they have passion but the dude they love and carried off the field last night ain't the one to lead them where they desperately want to be.

Yep, mediocre at best programs. I see you are ok with being a follower rather than a leader. Programs like Ohio State and Alabama work on getting better every year. looks like LSU has joined the ranks of being ok with a ten win season and nothing to show for it.

A ten win program is in the hunt every year. you can't win every year. No one wins every year.

Let me guess. You're just like Les Miles who has been known to quip after a loss, "we came in second."

Here's your trophy, then, for "second place." And mediocrity, which you obviously need to look up.

No it doesnt, if we played McNeese and win the bowl that's 10, do you really think we where remotely in the hunt? Just narrow it down just to the west, where we in the hunt? No

Mediocrity was referring to the head coach and his performance, which I agree is pretty mediocre.
