Look guys , I'm upset that we didn't land Herman or Jimbo. Im upset that they didn't let coach Miles go at the end of last year like any decent AD would have done. Allevas actions over the last few years have been inexcusable and immature. With that being said I'm still a tigers fan through and through , and we need to show these young men our support even through these dark times . We have actually done well recruiting these last 2 years considering the amount of buffoonery going on. We still have talent all over the field , and we will still field a team that can play with pretty much anyone in the land. If we can lock up Canada or Helfrich we're gonna be alright . I'm not expecting an elite program over these next few years but things could be worse . We need to just take a deep breath and remember that things will get better , Saban and the tides reign will come to an end eventually. Let's just be thankful we aren't ole miss , Arkansas , or Tennessee.

I still see a lot of potential in this years class If we can land Narcisse , Brennan, Akers , Marvin Wilson , and possibly a few surprises . I'm sure we won't get them all but we are still looking at a top 5-7 class imo.

We have horrible leaders at the top running the show.

It's going to get a lot worse.

My thing is - there were so many people on here that wanted us to give Les "one more chance" at the end of last year. I remember it being the majority and being really frustrated about it. Where are all those people now? Is it just hind sight and now everyone has come to the light?

We're horribly short sighted in Louisiana. It's been the same way since the 80s, at least.

I'm with you. LSU lucked out when we hired Emmertt. He knew to hire a search firm/consultants when he hired Saban. Joe Aleva I'd either a puppet or the worst AD in history. I agree with others who have said we haven't hit rock bottom yet. But when we do, hopefully the money will clean house and we will hire a progressive chancellor and a bad arse AD to rebuild another Golden Age of LSU Football. Until then, I'll pull for the players who stayed home and tiger bait the ones who leave...

What in the hell is dark about it! We have a nice bowl - the highest payout after the New Year's Six. We will play a respected opponent and the Heisman winner for what that's worth. THe sky has NOT fallen.

The only "darkness" is the regurgitated rhetoric that our spoiled and entitled fan base preaches daily! Let shite play out before jumping off the frickin ledge. This doom and gloom shite is suffocating.

You got one thing right. 5-7 but it's not class ranking that is what our record will be within 3 years

Sport,
When you say would "of",
You lose all credibility
By the way, its would "have"
Do you even GED?
