Their annual athletic budgets have to be 1/4 to 1/2 of what LSU's is, don't think they're in the top 25 of recruiting, and yet they have fielded much better looking football teams than LSU in the last 2 years. How is that possible?

Everyone is on TV now. The revenues are up for all schools in the power 5.

They have good coaches. Remember Miles was simply an above avg big12 coach before he was given all the LSU resources. That's why I am not worried about replacing him.

Good coaching, fun offense = recruits wanting to play for them


Bryce Petty wouldn't pass for 180 yds a game in our offense

They both develop players well (especially at qb) and put their players in a position to succeed with a superior scheme.

Boykin was a guy that was talented last year but just not experienced. You could see the potential there.

TCU went 4-8 in 2013 and let Boykin grow as a QB and took the punches that went with it.

Now, they're reaping the benefit of that.

LSU went through four losses this year with a guy that probably get them past that.

TCU is not the same team this year. Theyd beat us. And I'm never one to say that. Want to know the difference? They hired a new OC and found an offense. The difference has made Boyken (so) night n day different

TCU has always been pretty good and they have good facilities. Baylor has kind of been up and down over the years but they have a new Stadium. When they were in the old Southwest Conference all you heard about was Texas, Arkansas, and A&M.

Theyre filling the void left by Texas. They're reaping the benefits of a school who waited way too long to get rid of their coach.

What was his record THIS YEAR? He adapted, opened up his offense, and now what? Doesn't fit your agenda though huh?
