The safeties were a big big problem. How many missed tackles didn't prevent big plays? No one seems to want to really admit it. Yes, there has been some talk, but the safety play this year was the worst I have watched in my almost 60 years of watching LSU football. You just can't put it all on schem...

If he qualifies, which is highly likely, with Tops why would he need a scholarship? A POW gets training table, etc. or not?...
This. And to say he was a "good player", either you never saw the games and are purely looking at his statistics or you have let time affect your memory. His performances were legendary whether or not he was!...
If he was committed and decommitted to take visits, why wouldn't it be LSU?...
The question was who should we be watching in the transfer portal? Anybody got any ideas? Also is there a list of all college football players in the transfer portal at any one time?...

Excellent post. Hopefully, you gave some of these young ranters something to think about. ...
I remember the day LSU signed Bennie Logan from Red River High. Red River was a small Class AA school, and everyone on Scout couldn't believe we were wasting a scholarship on an unknown DE from a very poor high school program. Being from Coushatta I told them that I had heard some good things about ...

Do we have the personnel to run the power I this year? It didn't work out too well against Ms St. You can run power out of any set, and it appears a three wide set with one tight end and one back seems to be our most effective offense. That is what worked against Wisconsin in the second half....
I see the same thing. This is an intangible that this post doesn't cover. I also agree with the arm strength, missing open receivers, etc. I suppose he is playing because Harris is not ready from a mental point of view. But if we are not playing for a championship, better to get Harris ready for nex...
I saw Malone and the very good forward that played with him in a Regional at Tulsa. Believe me, this team couldn't hold that team's jockey straps, and if you stop for a minute, I believe you would agree. I saw this team play at NWSt. I didn't see any Karl Malones'. Maybe they are better than when I ...
What makes them different? Playing in the WAC? What else? Who have they beat outside of the WAC lately? ...
NWSt beat Tech on their home court. Didn't McNeese beat them as well. If not, it was close. La Tech could probably beat NWSt on their home court, but it would be close. I'm saying La Tech would be a pretty good Southland Conference team, nothing more. They wouldn't win it imo. Tech is playing a very...
You make some very good points. Warren will be missed, but if we can find a juco big good enough, and our guards can find a consistent scoring touch, meaning almost every game, along with O'Bryant coming into his own, cutting down on traveling for one thing, then this team could be very good next ye...

We deserve an NIT bid imo and the team did play very hard today. But the same thing got them against a very flat Kentucky team that has gotten them all season. Consistency or the lack thereof. They just can't make baskets to keep leads, or catch up when a team makes a run-most of the time. Again, th...
This thread is about us winning 22-25 games next year. To do that Stringer and Turner have to be a lot more consistent scorers and O'Bryant has to stop traveling. If those two or three things happen then I think it is possible. ...
I do know basketball and when Stringer and Turner cannot knock down shots consistently enough when they were recruited to do exactly that, then there lies a lot of our problem this year and last. Forget the percentages, they are bad enough, but these guys have hot games and no games. There is no con...

You all have to be kidding. Right? Have you listened at all to other school's play by play. The thing missing in most is the negativity that Hawthorne cannot or does not try to hide. I'm sorry, but I've always felt this way, and always will. To each his own I guess....
