Whose fault is it that your expectations are this high?


the expectations based on the quality of recruits that Les Miles brings in based on the data of all FBS teams would be that he would produce AT LEAST the average offensive ranking for his recruiting class stature.

He has failed in that regard.

CptBengal, I'm not going to say that your analysis is invalid. Far from it, I think that this is a nice way to look at it. However, it might be that the data themselves are a little biased. Hear me out...

Offensive production is very highly correlated with the production at one position: QB. Most teams go as their quarterbacks go. He has a good day the team has a good day for the most part. Also while LSU has had excellent recruiting during Miles' tenure it has had very bad recruiting at one position: QB. So your data may just be reflecting the fact that over the last 4 years, we haven't had solid production at that position. In other words, we don't make optimal use of the great recruits we get at other positions because of the one weakness at QB.

Thoughts?
