re: Are LSU fans unreasonable or do they have the right expectations?

Of course you should be dissapointed, but at the same time, having a good season, ex 10-11 wins in football for 5-6 straight years, should have you pretty damn happy. You shouldn't still be bitter months and years later.

We were just discussing this the other day on SECrant. Some of the greatest coaches of the last 50 years went nearly two decades at their schools before winning a national championship. Actually, I'll just post what JStanDawgFan did:

To illustrate my point more succinctly, I will list; according to that line of thinking, coaches that should have been fired from their schools before their National Title came. Next to each coach is the amount of years it took for each one to breakthrough...

Tom Osborne -22 years
Joe Paterno - 17 years
Bear Bryant - 17 years
Bobby Bowden - 17 years
Lou Holtz -17 years
Vince Dooley - 17 years
Mack Brown - 22 years
Bo Schembechler - Never

Another problem (football) is expecting national championships every other year. Seems like seeing what Meyer did in his four years at UF and what Saban is doing, is clouding many LSU minds. When you have people getting pissed at 10 win seasons, or just pushing em aside like they were just as easy as a 7 win season, then you have problems.
