if he could just catch up with that top used car salesman, you know, the midget to the east. He's been like the top junk car salesman in the area for like 8 years running now, but Orgeron is definitely tops on this lot and working hard on catching up.

Yeah, Saban is a great recruiter and he's done such a masterful job of building the Evil Empire up that it's almost recruiting itself on top of him being an elite recruiter. All he has to do is sit down, pull out the rings, the championship trophies and a binder full of all of his players in the pros.

I don't doubt this for even a split second. We'll have to see what changes are made to the staff, if any are made, and hopefully we can improve in the few areas that need improvement. Fix a few things, make a few more plays next year and 11 wins is definitely not out of the realm of possibility.

You mean like in it's a Wonderful Life?





Well, although Burrow attempted more passes/game than any QB in 10+ yrs at LSU, his passing TDs were also less than any in 10 yrs. So if he is indeed better than the G.O.A.T. Dwayne Haskins just think how bad our QB/WR development, OC, and Offense has to be to totally conceal that immense talent. Our AD & Chancellor Potter needs to think outside the binder:



First and utmost, we would have never been plagued by the endless whining of Alter-boy Buckeye Joe from the Props for Oganda Cartel headed by Dereck E. Ponamsky & Assoc.




We would not have had the worst Passing Offense in the last 4 years.



We would not have had to listen to how being last in the SEC was because we did not have enough Jugs machines and that Burrow has a better arm than Dwayne Haskins who is now the all time OSU and Big 10 QB with 27 records, #1 QB in Draft after only 1 Year, and now holds 27 records.




Wow! Look at the rankings. ALA attempted fewer passes/game than LSU. They are ranked #2 and LSU is #110, tied with Rice with 13 passes. Burrow only had 12 because CEH threw one in OT vs TAMU. So we actually finished below Rice.





If Burrow never came out of desperation seeking PT, maybe we would have been able to force a change back to "Competing for Championships" rather than "In the Hunt, Exceeding Low Media Expectations." McMillan won 2 Texas State 6-AAA Championships.

O & E have walled themselves off from new ideas. Saban on the other hand rotates OCs & DCs just so he can keep getting new ideas and picking peoples brains. He holds Coaching Seminars for open exchange of ideas. He has a Process that emphasizes Development.

LSU is terrible at Offensive development especially at QB. We took the #1-#2 DTQB in 2014 and stuck him under center in the I formation with 2 TEs & a FB and tried to run through the middle of the line. That was after that same QB came into the MSU game with 3 min to play trailing by 3 TDs and proceeded to toss two in 28 secs and throw a Hail Mary as time expired which would have won the game. He followed that up with 7 for 7 TDs in 2 qtrs using 3 WRs and running the option. After all of that Miles & Achilles Cameron let Hilliard, Magee, La'El revert to 3 and out, trying to boost their Draft stock.

15 of 34 for 259, 1 TD. Yeah, he really put us on his back. To my point Etling was 13 of 24 for 206 with 1 TD the year before.
But I think with a year under his belt Joe will be better his second year than Etling was.

Burrow was not better than Etling and it’s not that close. I like Burrow but there isn’t any area throwing the ball where he was better than Etling.

Comp %
Etling - 60%
Burrow- 57.4%

Yards per attempt
Etling- 9.0
Burrow- 7.2

Touchdowns to Ints
Etling- 16-2
Burrow- 12-4

Passer rating
Etling- 153.0
Burrow- 127.4

The only area he had a slight edge was yardage 37 and that was only because he attempted 70 more passes which is about 3 games worth.

Odds are none of us would have ever heard of Buckeye Jeaux.

We would have all been winners in that deal.
