Marcus Spears: You're Invited

Dear Marcus:

We get it. You won a natty with Jimbo, Nick, Kirby and Will.

That will never leave you, nor should your admiration for these guys.

We also get it that media folks have to be objective about their rooting interests.

We also know the prevailing narrative on LSU football. Questionable Head Coaching and QB play/selection/development

Yet, there is a limit to how much one should practice anti-homerism.

There is also many reasons to distinguish the upcoming 2018 season from last year's hobbled, not-talented-enough DLine, and numerous other conditions/factors which we all recognize contributed to the embarrassing Miss St and Troy defeats.

Simply put, Marcus, you are invited...to look harder for the positives than the negatives now, cause this D may rival the 2003/2007/2011 level Defenses, and Burrow may prove Matt Flynn caliber, and Edwards-Hellaire and Chris Curry are serious talents, and we probably have at least 5 future NFL roster receivers.

Yes, we know the OLine shuffle is a question. Yes, we know Coach E needs to produce the goods. Yep, Burrow has limited experience.

But bruh... You're a Tiger.

You've earned a decade worth of objectivity and anti-homerism points, so feel free to join the positivity for a while.

If things go sour, that'll be another matter.

But there are lots of reasons that this team may embarrass those predicting 5-7 wins.

So... Be advised/reminded:

We Comin'

Sincerely,
TigerBert
