Think about it this way!!
Lesticles is very successful in recruiting and getting the talent to BTR!!
However not many continue to progress each year at LSU and become that dominant figure all thought they would be.
IMHO when one talks about developing players, we should be concerned with how ell they do for the 4-5 years they are at LSU. The pro deal is a different animal.
RR and RS are perfect examples ( and we could name many more)...they are not a huge part of the offense ( yet hopefully) therefore are not as much of a threat as a JJ at Bama.
I am not sure Lesticles takes them to that next level to get them ready for the pros.

Is it truly CLM that is teaching and instructing, or is it the Position coaches? I think Porter and McCarthy were lacking, Wilson and Gonzo are definately upgrades. Pelini was strong during his tenure, and I think the results indicate such. The Malveto debacle is a large part of Woods's production, not to mention the likelyhood Woods ranking out of highschool was based on Single A talent performance and not SEC D1 opponents. Looks like Gonzo has Shep on track to be something really special, and Cooper / Chief are working towards something special with PP7 and the youngsters. The two glaring holes are OL (CLM added BWilkerson) and QB - CLM has NEVER said he was "Spurrier in a Hat. "
Honestly, even though CLM was able to bring in top 10 classes, I think the level of talent recruited for the O-Line and at QB was raw at best, more likely sub-par, evidenced by the lack of depth at these positions.
Stud and Crowton have been crushed by the blog-boards, and the fruits of their abilities (or lack thereof) are unfortunately proving them correct.

JJ had 43 touches and 4 TD his sophmore year at Bama.
RR AND RS are poised to blow the doors off of this even at the PUTRID pace of the O against the UNC D.
Yet another example of some strange arse perception to cloud the hell out of reality.
(and before the "the doubled JJ" excuses come flying out...Maze had 31 catches ALL last year.)
