The doom of the program has been predicted since Miles was hired. For all the talk of "inherting" Miles and the AD's office on the whole has not only maintained the program but elevated it.

I am not sure where this theory came from but it seems the view that LSU has all the talent and everyone else is just above a level above Nicholls State or should be!!

Miles probally helped saved the program by getting rid of Perriloux and other bothersome players that in the long term bring a program down. See Miami. If JL had not been so erratic last year the outcome would have have been a lot more postive. This seems to be ignored

LSU is now involved with the most lucrative contract in Sports history that will further help stablize it. Needless to say the SEC and the teams in it will become more the elite.

ALso newsflash. There will be no more Dynasties. That means LSU will not be at a BCS game every year. But yes neither will FLorida or even Bama every year. Parity does have an effect.

LSU is in fine hands Relax

This is all too substantial to ever float on the rant-sea!!

I only wish that people like the author of this thread would have experienced LSU between 1989-1999. They would realize how ridiculous they're being. The problem is that most of these LSU "experts" jumped on right during the start of Saban-era or shortly thereafter, and the extent to them of LSU being bad was going to the Cotton Bowl instead of the Sugar Bowl.

If only they could have been around when the "crowd" at the bottom of the hill waiting for the band was about 100 people instead of 5,000 and that you could see entire sections of empty stands and completely empty upper decks during the opening kickoff.
