I'm not gonna lie, I underachieved at LSU too. Got a couple of degrees and a hot wife out of it, but I could have done much better in damn near all of my classes.

So odd, especially considering pro athletes only come from LSU and nowhere else...

Nailed it. Another ignorant thread by our myopic miserable fan base. They ruin football for me.

In order to make a final determination, we're going to need to see some photographs.

Yeah because lack of talent and the ability to recruit has been his shortfall. Oh wait maybe that's discipline and offensive scheme, neither of which seemed to get much attention this off season.

It's like calling the fire department and telling them your house is on fire, but instead of putting out the fire at your house they spray water on your neighbor's house. I'm excited about the hires, but they don't fix the biggest flaw Miles has had.
