Maybe the analysts know what they're talking about.

There have been two weeks of anti staff posts on this board because we aren't as strong as we normally are this year, but are we really surprised? Every analyst told us that losing that many Early departures would catch up to us and we would need a rebuilding year at some point. Most on this board said they didn't know what they were talking about and now they can't believe this is happening. FWIW most of those analysts have said nothing about the program dying like some chicken littles around here. LSU will be fine again in a year or two, but this year should have been expected at some point.
