Bebe is in his element

OK

Amite Kids are a much better possibility than the Thibodeaux kid from Cali.

needs to reel in Sopsher and Cain to silence the critics

I will believe in O when he wins on Saturdays the way Saban and Miles did 10 plus years ago. Anything else is not acceptable!

I don’t know of many that “hate” O. Many are just skeptical and that is understandable given his track record.

The hire was awful on paper. But I hope he can succeed.

Oeux Schmoeux!

Man I see hate not really in this room but on the rant they won't give him an inch. When he does something good for the team or someone is proud that LSU has the slightest momemtum, the same ones are out in force to kill it.

That's not an LSU fan IMO. We landed Stingley and someone says, he didn't sign yet, that's it, or where's Sopsher. What about Emory. But it's nothing but 3*s. I'm just tired of the complaining and wish we could get back to talking about LSU without bashing our coach, players or fellow fans.

I'm on the fence as well but I can see that he's replenishing the LOS and filling our needs no matter if they're 3* or 2*. We need these players and the CBs we picked up yesterday were approved by Raymond. If you actually look at our 5* players, it isn't one position. We have one on the OL, another in the secondary, another on the DL in Sopsher who we have to land but have a great shot with.

We have another OT that we could end up with, one at LB, one at DE. I mean we may not get them all but it's possible with a great season. Aranda could end up talking Dean into taking Whites place right away. I mean who knows? I know I'm excited about this season.

And I can respect that. What I can't respect is if you were on a mission to destroy coach O, like many on the rant do. If you want to speak on what he's done both good and bad, that's fine but not everything he's doing is a bad thing for LSU.

Many times I sat here wondering why our biggest recruits were not coming to our camps but going to Bama's or someone else's. Well even in a year where I would understand if Lee or another WR wouldn't come, they still came. That in itself is a good sign, yes it's his "job" but this is a change for the good.

Not many coaches in America can do what Saban's doing and has been since coming to LSU (btw even when he was at Michigan State I saw how special he was as a HC and wanted him here when many didn't). Les Miles took over a completely different set of circumstances and we all saw how that ended.

I don't see Saban in coach O but I honestly do see that he knows how to get the best out of his players. He looks for tough players with a good head, no matter their ranking. We will soon see how they perform on the field. Given what O took over, which was a mix of talent and depleted depth, I have to give him a fair chance, no matter what he did at OM, now that he's the HC. I wouldn't have hired him BUT that's done. That's all I'm saying. Give the man his fair due to get what he wants here and do what he can do.

He's hardly letting the talent drop. I see much more depth and potential than I did with Miles. He's got a tough schedule this year but he has to win games and I'm in full agreement with that. He has the perfect chance to prove himself this year. He does need to do that IMO.
