How do you define mass exodus?



Trey Quinn, John Diarse and Johnson all transfered in one offseason. I may even be missing someone.

You used that as an opportunity to blame Miles for something, while you've constantly made excuses for this current staff. Let's not sit here and pretend that some of us don't know what you are doing.

Did Jazz transfer after 2015 or 2016?

If you're a WR playing in a shite offense (that mostly runs the ball) that hardly passes the ball, you would transfer to and so the the kid did. Also, I disagree with you, I don't think he got a lot of PT in his frosh year, he played some sure just like Chase and Marshall did this year, but not a whole lot. He's in the right kind of offense now at OSU to help him develop as a WR, it was a smart move for him if you're trying to improve in your craft and have a chance to play in the NFL which I'm sure he is. I'm sure Malachi Dupre and a lot other LSU WR's wish they had done the same. Also, I don't see anybody crying about Trey Quinn who did the same and caught a lot of balls at SMU.

Jonathan Giles transferred in.

He had more catches than all receivers on the LSU roster combined.

This has to be up there on the list of all time worst transfers right?

I bashed the way the WR's were used this year all season.

This thread isn't for comparing the two coaches. Not every thread is about that. Not every statement about Les Miles warrants a comparison to Orgeron. Put down your pitchfork, shitstain

I wouldn't be surprised to see an exit of a WR or two this season.

Three guys over how many years? Will be interesting to monitor going forward.

Actually, I don't understand how Giles caught all those balls at TTech, honestly. Lol He's slow as hell, and his route running leaves a lot to be desired.

I remember a lot of people shitting on Quinn and saying he wasn’t any good.

We heard 4 WR sets were going to be the norm.

This has been addressed by the coaches. The oline can’t protect well enough to go 4 wide. They need help from RBs and TEs.

There are more. There was Paul Turner too that comes to mind. He's played in the NFL.

The problem isn't more so the transfer, its the impact the players had once they left. Usually a guy transfers and you never hear from them. But these guys were clearly talented and were clearly misused & deterred from the way the offense was being ran

He wasn't very good at LSU but that doesn't mean he wasn't good somewhere else. I saw him play at Barbe and he was basically unstoppable. You don't hold the national high school record for receptions in a career and not be able to catch a football.

Maybe, but the point is he left just like Johnson to improve as a WR because they knew they wouldn't at LSU. You improve as a WR when you see the ball a lot, and catch the ball a lot, and that just wasn't happening at LSU.
