I still look on them as an inevitable down period in the wake of the Perrilloux mess and the loss of Pellini. The next year or two will tell whether that is the case or if there are deeper problems.

I can respect your opinion, even though I don't share agreement on the Perriloux thing. Yes it was a fiasco, but I just don't see giving him that much credit. Was he the whole LSU team? No. Was his departure in mid-season? No. Was there time to develop readiness on the part of JL or JJ? Yes. I just see the bulk of the problem in a coaching failure to develop young QBs, admittedly earlier than originally planned. But this stuff happens to teams and they adjust. LSU didn't. That's coaching, IMO. And so I am not really optimistic that CLM & CO. have what it takes to develop any of the talent on any of the hi-ranked recruiting classes to the extent that said talent could be developed. Case in point: RS this past season.

All the negativity. Its getting old. We had a down year. Thats it. We are loaded, and will continue to be loaded. Gonzo is here as an OC don't let anyone tell you different. This is a smooth transition taking place. No matter what i think Gonzo was hired with the idea of him taking over soon. Being brought on as recruiting coordinator and an assistant HC should say a lot. Smart move by LM. This way nobody gets their feathers ruffled next year.
