re: melt on the cougar board

I tried to tell them all week that they were making a mountain out of a mole hill, some LSU fans too. The fear that some folks have from previous experiences have them apprehensive.

Also gave BYU belief. This is what I was talking about the other day. We've had too many years of incompetent football, everyone thinks they have a chance against LSU, simply because of the past. Things are different now but it will take at least a couple years of utter domination to really convince the country. If we can close this class strong, end up with another top 5 class then LSU can be one of those teams that others know have no shot before the game starts.

We were starting to become everyone's hopeful marquee win every year. These lesser teams actually thought they could come in and out play/out coach LSU. It was tiresome but was actually becoming reality and never should've. LSU has recruited with all the great teams, it's a proven fact, you can look up the amount of blue chips LSU has compared to the country. We are only behind Bama and Ohio State. I actually think LSU has lots of underrated guys as well.

If LSU can start filling the OL depth with great talent, starting this year, then keep piling up the DLman, we'll be fine. Aranda will keep adding LBrs. DBs, RBs, WRs, aren't hard to find for LSU. QB, OL, DL is where we will become elite again. The Hback position should be easy to fill as well. Let's have a great season and capitalize on the momentum we can create. It's a great start to the season now let's build from it.
