re: Giles still on the team?

It's actually a legit question. In 11 games as a soph Giles had 1158 yds and 13 TDs and 16.8ypc. That's likely up there close to some LSU all-time single season numbers.

What I saw in games (at LSU) was a guy with minimal separation, no burst and an inability to do much with the ball in his hands. I don't want to denigrate the guy, but there was just nothing dynamic about his game.

It's fair to say that his stats at TTU were, in part, a byproduct of that system. However, it's also fair to so say his lack of production at LSU, in part, was also due to LSU's system. LSU hasn't exactly been a great place for WR's to put up eye popping numbers (outside of 2013)

Was he probably overrated? Sure. But so were the fans expectations of him in an offense usually, average to below average in the passing dept.
