we were coming off our first SEC title in 13 years and were nationally ranked
So expectations weren't very high that year? You just stated we were coming off an SEC title and were Nationally ranked. Seems expectations were pretty high to me. Besides, who actually sets those expectations?

No...expectations were high, but even though we were 8-4 and should have lost to Kentucky, no one was really concerned about the overall direction the program was headed. We had one of the best recruiting classes in LSU history in 2001, lots of young players, and we were on the verge of signing the number 1 class in 2003.
The difference now is that the overall state of the program is declining.
