LSU:

[1] Perriloux ( 5 star, #1 dual threat QB ) transferred out after discipline issues
[2] Lee ( 4 star, #7 pro style by Rivals ) became Jarrett "Pick Six" Lee in 2008 and never recovered from that. Lead LSU to the SEC championship and National
Title game but was benched in the middle for Jordan Jefferson....So called success
[3] Hatch. Should he have played QB at SEC / LSU level?
[4] Jefferson....So called success.
[5] Zach Lee. Signed a baseball contract and ran for his life.
[6] Russell Shepard ( 5 star, #1 dual threat QB ) moved to wide receiver.
[7] Chris Garrett ( 3 star, #18 pro style by Rivals ) transfered and went bust.
[8] Jeremy Liggins ( 4 star dual threat, #16 in the country ) did not qualify.
[9] Rob Bolden (QB transfer from Penn State ) transfered out.
[10] Mettenberger...True success and NFL starter. However, he had a very mediocre junior season.
[11] Stephen Rivers ( 3 star, #19 pro style by Rivals ) transfered and went bust.
[12] Hayden Rettig ( 4 star, #3 pro style QB ) transfered without a down.
[13] Antony Jennings ( 4 star, #6 dual threat QB ) transfered.

And the one that got away Gunner Kiel. Did not have the breasts to lead the tigers but seem to be doing fine as a starter in Cincy.


Alabama:

[1] AJ McCarron, ( 4 star, #7 pro style by Rivals ) --- 3 National Championship rings (2 as a started and 1 as a red shirt).
[2] Blake Simms ( 4 star, #33 athlete by Rivals ) --- 1 SEC championship, (3 national championships as a backup) [Converted running back]. Won the SEC as a

first time starter and took his team to the playoffs. Came into Tiger Stadium and led his team to a come from behind victory.
[3] Jake Coker ( 4 star pro-style QB, transferred from Florida State).

LSU under Miles is where QB's come to die. Alabama is where average QB's become hall of famers, because all they have to do is manage the game and pass the ball with some level of accuracy. There is very little difference between Jarrett Lee, AJ McCarron and Arron Murray. The problem is we just do not put our QB's in a position to succeed.

Saban could take our roster and win a NC easily.

Perriloux- he got EVERY chance in the book.
Z. Lee- Would you turn down guaranteed money?
Bolden/Rivers- never had a shot
Liggins- why is he even on this list?

A lot of things that you aren't accounting for in this deal breaker list. Our cross-division opponent happened to be the Tebow Gators and who does Bama get every year? Vandy and UT? Injuries have killed us on the offensive line over the years and the fact that our LB guru never recruited KILLED us. Then he gets off his arse and brings in Garrett, I mean cmon...

That's ONE difference, but it's not the whole story. The real difference is that LSU does MOST things very well, and Bama does EVERYTHING very well.

Each time LSU faces Bama we have a weakness. Since 2011 Bama has had zero weaknesses. They have had talent, depth and experience at almost every position in 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015. LSU has had the following weaknesses:
2012 - 1) QB. Mett was in his first year starting 2) CB. Mills was a true freshman.
2013 - 1) Dline was manned by "Freak" and Ego with weak backups. 2) LB was a weak position group after Minter left.
2014 - 1) Dline was manned by a true freshman and true sophomore 2) LB was manned by DJ Welter 3) QB was a second year AJ
2015 - 1) QB was second year Harris 2) Punter was the worst I've ever seen at LSU.
2016 is the first year since 2011 that we have no glaring weaknesses - assuming Harris improves and Growden can punt more than 30 yards.

and what's the difference between LSU and all the other schools that make Les one of the top few coaches in the country since his arrival here, even though he didn't have decent quarterback play much of the time? Is Les then the best coach ever because he did so much with such poor quarterback play?

You're only comparing LSU to 'bama, how about compare the rest of the country as well.

If you love 'bama so much, toss your BS 'mike4lsu' name and change it to mike4bama

Actually Jake was a composite 3 star. I don't remember anybody having him a 4.
