Would still put LSU above them based on facilities.

I'll argue that there was no better job to walk into than LSU in 2005



FLORIDA
Texas
USC
OHIO state
FSU
Bama
Are all better jobs than lsu. But we are probably #7. Uga is up there too and would be higher if they didnt have Ga tech to compete with.
Lsu is/was a great job because of instate talent, no major universities to compete with for said talent, and proximity to Texas.

But you have said that FLA sucked in 2003.. How does that make it a better job in 2005 when LSU had just won a title In 2003///////////.

Again another attempt to bash what Saban did here.........

Not historically. What programs would you have ranked above LSU at that time and based on what?



There is a difference between a top job and a top program. For example. Oregon is a top 5 program but its not realy a top 5 job because of its lack of top prospects in state. A programs history has an effect on whether its a top 5 program. Just because you win 12 games two years in a row doesn't make you a top 5 program.
Lsu lost 4 games in 2000,3 games in 2001, 5 games in 2002,1 game in 2003, and 3 games in 2004. Thats not a top 5 program. If a program wins 10 games in back to back years but its the only time theyve won 10 games in 30 years. That matters

Dont bring your bitching from the other thread into this one.

I'll agree that LSU was projecting upwards faster than any other school (maybe OSU). But as a snapshot, 7th or 8th.

Its like im talking to a retard. Oh wait . I am..
There is a difference between a top job and top program. Florida could have 3 straight losing seasons AND ITS STILL A TOP 5 JOB.

No one is bashing anything Saban did for LSU, I would hope all would be appreciative. However, not all of us find the need to suck his nutts 10 years later.........................

This list would work if you are talking about today. FSU, Florida, and Bama I would not have above LSU in 2005 but I'm willing to l listen if you have some number to back it up.

So you don't think Oregon is a top 5 job now but you think it is a top program based on it's outstanding history?

It would be hard to find some one on these boards that hates lsu as much as you do. You really try to shite on the program every chance you get.

I am not.... Just playing with these fools who think he sucked here........... He coaches the enemy now... Screw Saban..... I hate that he coaches at Bama, cause he will continue to dominate LSU while he is there.......

He's objective, unlike 90% of the purple and gold sunglass wearers on this board. You're the one that should be less myopic and more objective.
