talent here should be the ability to catch the ball, block, run routes properly, run the correct routes, and line up correctly.


I think you're confusing talent with skills. When most people talk about a talented recruit, they are talking about his athleticism - he is quicker, stonger, faster, and more agile than most other guys his same size. That is something innate and can be maximized with strength and conditioning.

The ability to run routes, know where you're supposed to be, and block, is something that needs to be coached. It is a fact that LSU has some tremendous atheletes- as good or nearly as good as any in the country. For whatever reason, they haven't put it all together when they play.

And you're being overly harsh on our receivers. TT has never cost us a game on his own this year. There have been breakdowns all around.

Talent =
having the ability to perform a set of skills

Skills differ based on "position"

Skills can be taught if the talent(ability) exists
teaching skills = developing talent.
