have to agree with this, you guys are all flipping your shite over us signing the #81 ranked player. We haven't signed any 5 stars have we?

This statement has a lot of FAIL in it.

Not really, haven't kept up with the recruiting as much as I normally due because I've been really busy, I see now that Ware is a 5 star, and yes I am quite aware signing 5 stars does not make or break a good class.

I was simply saying that you people are nuts if u don't think the general perception of our program is gone down tremendously on a national scale, and that the recruits are concerned when they see how little miles plays young players.

You don't here them bashing usc who had ALL-WORLD QB Barkley. We had inexperience at QB, which affected our OL, which put the D on the field too much, yada yada. We will bounce back. This class, plus next year, will change things dramatically. Keep the faith Tigers.

This is just false. Randle, Shep, and Downs got considerable playing time.

Guys like JJ and Peterson playeed as true freshman.

If you have an ultra talented team it shouldn't be common for true freshman to come in and start over guys who should be a lot bettter based off of similar talent andvastly more talent.

LSU has suffered the last couple of years from some really unfortunate circumstances.

1. We had a. Lot of attrition on the lines that hurt are depth this year.
2. Our QB depth chart that was in really good shape got fricked by RP having to be dismmissed.
3. Poor defensive coaching promotion in 2008.
4. We had gotten a lot of secondary guys experience going into 2008, but they didn't live up to expectations immediately as starters.
