Depends on the sport. I think it's entirely reasonable to believe LSU is among the top 10% of college football programs in the country right now, so a 90% positive view would not be unrealistic at all. In basketball, it would be a hefty stretch. But nowhere close to as much of a stretch as 90% negative would be. And of course, with football getting so much more weight than anything else (perhaps everything else), baseball being pretty strong, and marked success in a lot of other sports, I wouldn't think it much of a stretch at all to say LSU sports is among the top 10% of college athletic programs in the country. So an overall rate of 90% wouldn't really be unrealistic, either.

It really comes down to attitude: can you enjoy being in the top 10%, or are you compelled to unhappy about being in the bottom 99%?

i'm compelled to call a spade a spade, even if it sucks to have to admit as an LSU fan that, FOR EXAMPLE, the program isn't very good right now, the coach isn't great, etc.....

some of you need to realize that a criticism doesn't mean a lack of fandom, no more than overzealous fandom makes you a great fan.... we are all of differing walks of life, points of view, and experiences, and just because i don't have the same "rosy" outlook as you, and you don't have the "bleak" take on things that the next person has, doesn't mean we aren't all fans of the same program....
