What is the major thing holding back LSU recruiting?

quote:


So you're perfectly fine with LaTech dominating LSU eventhough LSU was the far more talented taem?




After losing last week to Bama and in the fashion we lost, I absolutely understand why our student athletes couldn't get up for this weeks game, and you are full of B.S. if you are going to blame that on the coaching staff.

But to belong to the NegaTiger Nation, you have to tow the company line.



This is absurd, you need to be drug tested. Regularly

LSU is damned to finish behind other SEC programs who have a united fanbase that supports their coaching staff instead of constantly attacking their coaching staff for being incompetents.

Even a Rantard should understand that fact.

You do realize that LSU recruited the #1 ath, #1 WR, #1 S, and the #2 DE, last year

LSU has won two BCS championships this decade and last year was our best recruiting year, but out of all the elite recruiting programs, LSU's fanbase attacks it coach the most and that has to have an effect.


I love Tigerdroppings and all, but you give this website far too much credit. No one, and I mean no one, in the national media spotlight is question Miles, nor questioning Miles' treatment at LSU.

Know why? Because LSU is NOT ATTACKING ITS HEAD COACH!!!

Just b/c you read about a few "immature college geeks" attacking him on this website does not mean the fanbase is. If so, why don't you think he is ever mentioned in the same sentences with Rich Rob or Charlie Weis??

This isn't hurting recruiting b/c its a nonissue, moron. No one is attacking him. I'm sorry your vagina is still sore over Brady, but just b/c some message board fans don't like the coach =/= a fanbase movement against a coach, despite what you believe happened to your boyfriend up at Arkansas St.

Only because they didn't believe your B.S., but we don't know how many ruled out LSU due to the constant attacks on our coaching staff.

We absolutely know that nobody chose LSU because of the NegaTiger attacks on Les Miles and his coaching staff.

With such immature foul language, you leave no doubt about your maturity level.

My bullshite? Who the hell do you think you're talking to? Miles is a good recruiter and good coach, i've never said otherwise. Shut the hell up. We ranked #1 #4 and #5 in recruiting last year.

The bolded number is the average star rating



So, according to "average stars" we are only slightly behind... a negligible .02 to Bama.

Also, you decided to point out all the other teams ranked ahead in star average instead of the actual class total.

The reason our star average is lower is because we had more 3 star recruits in our class. The reason we were ranked no. 2 is because most of our 4 star recruits were among the better 4 stars in the country...

We've also managed to reel in nearly every top players in the state the last several years (so I guess all the "negativity" hasn't gotten out to them yet).

And pull players from: Texas, Virginia, California, Michigan, North Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee... etc. Guess the news hasn't gotten that far yet.


You are really reaching here.

Most of the in-state recruits understand the NegaTigers are a bunch of clueless geeks, but a lot of out of state recruits could be afraid Miles might not last all their years of eligibility compared to a H.C. who has full fan support such as Urban Meyer, or Nick Saban.

Then why do you support a team with such sorry fans? Most of them are a product of the university.

There are pessimistic fans and realistic fans--both of them seem to be given the name Negatiger most of the time. And then there are fans with their heads up their asses. That's you.

Don't forget about the LSU System President Dr. John V. Lombardi, the LSU Chancellor Michael Martin, and the LSU Athletic Director Joe Alleva; we all must have our heads up our assess.

Heaven help Miles if the LSU leadership ever pulls their heads out of their asses.

If LSU had won by 8 and not been dominated, I don't think there would be as much of an issue.


it would be more of an issue

when the other team brings their best against you, that's one thing, but if they don't and you let them hang around, that's far more damning

I'm gonna venture that you don't spend any time on other team's message boards.

Go read an OU board for a week. They seem to be doing fine in recruiting.

It was poorly stated but I think the intent of the original post is true on one level.

Our head coach is unfairly put down nationally. And our fanbase does not defend him despite one national title and a 50-13 W/L record.

I don't know why. Because he's not eloquent. Because we acts goofy. Because we're a fanbase that is both immature and spoiled.

At any rate, the shite said about the coaching staff on this and other websites really doesn't help things. Can I point to a recruit it affected? No. Do I think the impact is huge? No. But it's a fair point. Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Auburn, etc. all haven't won a MNC championship in the time we've won two and yet we're the fanbase least pleased with our head coach.
