I see no problem with the placement of LSU. In fact, it only helps with motivation and providing the "chip on the shoulder". Given the question marks for the team....new coac h(yes, not a great track record as head coach), questions on OL, QB, receivers, etc, I can understand the picks. Doesn't bother me...could care less. But, clearly, no one in the media has confidence in Coach O. He needs to change that...no one else. Until he does, I could care less about the media who predicts the season. They are NEVER right.

Popular? Really? I personally can't think of anyone that I know of that was on board with the hire.

The "He's one of us" narrative was heavily pushed by a number of people on this board.

Until he wins. He'll be known as the guy who can recruit great talent. But doesn't know how to product it on the field. Currently thats a fair assessment on CEO.

I'm one of the most realistic people on this board. , and certainly not sunshine and rainbows you narrative- spewing halfwit. I've just assessed this team and feeling more optimistic than you and these guys who think the sky is falling. You and Barret are both going to be clutching your pearls when LSU has a great season.

SportTiger, sir you are a frickin troll and in no way an LSU fan. Please go away.


I didn't even comment to the validity of the article. I just think its funny that because a national sportswriter writes something SEMI-negative about LSU/Ed O, its immediately garbage.

If you are going to say that about LSU, then you could say that about any other team in the league.

No, some of us just aren't delusional. We don't have the greatest talent in the nation (nor did we last year, or the year before). We are going to lose games this year.

Show me another team with a 1st year HC,OC,QB coming off surgery,unproven WR's & OLine with depth issues that has a fanbase that is because they aren't getting enough respect by the media members?

Meh. He's been in the program for nearly 3 years, and was the HC for 3/4 of the season last year.

QB coming off surgery


As an example of inexperience, you are going to mention a 5th-year senior returning starter?

Pretty stupid. They have Texas A&M as one of the most overrated and most underrated teams. ???????????

It's the first time he'll be fully incharge of LSU's program. That's an entire new situation whether you want to identify it or not.

Also, the teams that CEO beat as the interm coach:

Missouri 4-8
USM 7-6
OM 5-7
Arkansas 7-6
TAMU 8-5
Louisville 9-4

You frame that question as if he's been in the program the entire time. When we both know he hasn't. That still doesn't change the fact that we still don't know Etilings ceiling at the moment.

Go away troll. Seriously. Just politely gtfo. I don't know that you have ever had a positive thing to say about Lsu. Anytime there is a positive article/post, you swoop in and shite all over it. Troll.

It was negative, therefore you have no issue with it. Had it been positive, you would have bashed it. Troll.

Yeah, I don't think you understand trolling. But okay.

Furthermore, the article wasn't negative or positive. It was middle of the road.
