Oh yeah, LSU players are always terribly conditioned and underperforming at the combine.

Oh wait...

B.S.. Boots garland is a speed coach. I have never heard Moffit be considered anything but a strength coach. moffit is a Hatch disciple and Hatch's principles are based on being explosive.

parcells wasn't even his coach or GM this offseason, so i don't see how that would prove anything in reply to those facts


I really don't care about the Tuna's drama/retirement, unretired whatever. Fact: Parcells drafted Marcus Spears with Draft combine information in his hand.

but moffit was mainly a speed guy at miami, plus we've gone to a more big10 style under les (more power, less speed). i don't know who is responsible for the philosophy, but i just wish we'd go for more speed


He isn't emphasizing anything different here than he did at Miami.

are you really saying that the fans who post on here might have unrealistic expectations for the LSU players? No way.

Other than what you've read about, or the occassional ESPN Classic game, you know nothing about the 1970's.

i don't have unrealistic expectations

we have recruited some insane classes, so i guess you have to throw rivals and scout into that basket also

depends on which Miami teams you want to compare, right? I don't think that LSU teams in this decade are as talented overall as Miami's in the 90's. Very close though.

well late 90s/early 00s nobody touched miami

i'm not expecting all pros to get drafted every year from LSU or 3-5, 1st rounders every year

nobody's going to match that run

Though I do feel that sometimes LSU bulks their guys up a little too much BUT have you ever considered that these 40 times coming out of HS might be a "little inflated"...


Impossible. Everyone knows that every linebacker in the state of TX runs a 4.4

my point. Moffitt coached at the U at that time, using the same system he uses here.

but i don't expect him to put out every LB in the 4.5s and damn near every DB in the low 4.4s/4.3s like those miami teams had

when was the last time we had a LB in the 4.5s or a legit DB prospect in the 4.3s?

*ETA: other than laron. nobody is saying he didn't have a really good 40 a couple years ago

you only need 7. Besides, it's always like that- no one ever feels like they aced all Codes. Chances are you muddled through them just fine.
