I would take an overwhelming talent advantage everytime.

And who is responsible for securing this overwhelming talent?

Let me answer that for you, the coach. And save the "it's LSU, we would get top talent no matter who our coach was" argument. I'm sure USC, Miami, Texas, Florida St. etc. have that same advantage right? Well let's go ahead and compare our record to theirs over the last 8 years.

Some people on here can be so naive, you are willing to point out every negative facet of the program and pin it on the coach, but ignore the success the same coach and program yield. It doesn't work that way, if you are going to acknowledge the negatives, you surely have to acknowledge the positives.

I'm sure very few LSU fans will tell you Les Miles is a good gameday coach, but his results are impossible to ignore. He is the CEO of a top tier program that only a handful of programs in the country have rivaled.
