they may expect an outcome but most of their information used to "process" is rumor, opinion and not factual. that, my friend is an emotional gut reaction to news the CONSIDER unfavorable. yes, they have some points to back their reaction but they are jumping off the cliff BEFORE their result happens or even comes near to happening.

negatigers are not rational at all. the rational reaction is one that remains calm and adopts a wait and see attitude. it can certainly involve expressing disappointment but not involve hesterics and espouses rumors as fact.

I also realize ( as so many others refuse to acknowledge) that I am only operating with a fraction of the information needed to analyze the actual facts. There are known unknowns and unknown unknowns , as it were. So realizing that, and not wanting to be a boorish a-hole, I choose to bite my tongue , keep my opinions ( mostly ) to myself, speak with a certain level of humility that acknowledges I have no control over any of this, and try to focus on the positives
These are excellent points from some of the replies on here. I agree with your overall characterization of emotional vs rational, but I think you have the groups backwards. I agree totally that LSU should have hired folks with better resumes, and I agree that this was all done very shoddily. But, we can only assume that SE cannot run LSU's offense as well as -say- Yurcich. We don't actually have data to support that. And since we as fans cannot change the hire, it seems the rational thing would be to take a wait and see approach and get the actual data.
That is not at all the same thing as thinking these are great moves.

We have data that said Canada beat the NC 2 years ago with an innovative offense. The reason it was “window dressing” was because it wasn’t fully implement ed because our ignoramous coach held onto assistants instead of letting his coordinator do the hiring.
fricking moron doesn’t understand the role of a CEO and isn’t smart enough to understand the complexities of an offense so he tried to bring it down to his dumb level.
Cameron had an issue with dumb QBs like Harris. He never “got it” but Miles and his mobile QB in an immobile system aka JJ love fest forced Cameron’s hand.
