Y’all don’t get tired of debating this shite over and over and over and over?



I don’t think any new information, data, or stats have been brought into the conversation in about a year or two, so why don’t y’all just give this shite up?

I do get tired of this argument, and I hope LSU wins every game.

But it's revisionist shite like this

Expectations could not be really high this year considering we lost the best RB in college and lost numerous lineman. Young and unproven WRs and a very young secondary. The wins over FL and Auburn show that this team is growing up. We should of competed for more titles and had more 10 win seasons with the talent Les had.

that causes me to resond.

Miles had the program at an extremely high level, and we as fans were used to and demanding greatness. Alabama has separated from LSU (and the rest of the college football world), and the general consensus was that we needed a new coach to catch up to the Tide. We wanted everything Miles brought, plus some new stuff- more, bigger linemen, a more dynamic offense.

What we got with O- a big step back, so far. The wins we took for granted are no longer gimmes, as we've got 2 BAD losses, worse than any since the Dinardo or Hallman days. There was a massive defection of linemen, the recruiting class is bleeding away, the coach has said some pretty disparaging things about current players (we have no kicker, the 3rd team back shouldn't have been out there, etc).
This doesn't look like what we were after when we ran Miles off. We wanted to tweak the program, not rip it down and start over. That's why we kept an interim and multiple coaches from the prior staff. So far, the results are up in the air, to say the least.

Let's not get too excited about beating Auburn and Florida; that's what we previously expected to do. We wanted MORE.
