fact is that Miles last two recruiting classes, 2015 and 2016, were very short on talent on the offense side of the ball. Those are the years classes that could have made big contributions to the 2018 offense if recruiting hadn't fallen off on the offense side of the ball in those last two years. That doesn't mean that there wasn't also a problem with the offense scheme. I don't think anyone on here is saying that the 2019 offense will be short of talent or that there will be a problem with the scheme. The only players from the offense side of the ball drafted out of the 2015 class was Guice, Moreau and Jazz Ferguson (who transferred out). Nobody from the 2016 class on offense was drafted, though here are some that have the potential to be drafted next year. Dee Anderson, Pettigrew, Magee, Derrick Dillon, Sullivan, and Cushenberry all have the potential to be drafted, but will need breakout years.

About like the talent level Miles started with?



He did.
2018 draft had the 2nd most nfl draft picks in cfb.
But hey dont let facts get in the way of your opinion.

O inherited an oline with more NFL draft picks than Clemson has had since 2008.

Jesus jumped up and down. The guy's only been there 5 or 6 months and it's Kansas for christ sakes. What the hell did some of you expect?

For the people that couldn't wait for Miles to leave, they have an awfully big interest in how Miles is doing at Kansas.


That's a bit odd.

you want to talk about Miles' horrible offensive philosophy I'll buy you a beer and we can discuss, but don't try to make recruiting the issue. It's a complete and utter myth created to give Orgeron a pass up to this point.


Exactly.
O was left so much talent that he publicly said lsu was a playoff team in 2017.
No one ever mentioned a lack of talent until O started dropping games to mid majors and getting curb stomped by Miss St.

Miles had us at the most deficient talent levels since mid Dinardo era. He'd sign 5 WR's every year even though we went 2 TE and 1fullback 50% or more. What a garbage coach.

The 2015 lsu team had 2 offensive players drafted, I guess they lacked talent too.

Ain't that the truth.

I can't even fathom to guess how many times over the years where I've read "If I ever hear that guys name again it will be too soon" from some of the posters on here, but Miles sure gets a lot of attention from people that couldn't stand him being part of the program.

The 2017 team was loaded with offensive talent, not the 18 team. Here’s Miles’ last full class of offensive players (‘16):

-Cushenberry - multiyear starter, not a high draft pick

-Lindsey Scott - gone, competing for second team at Missouri, never controbuted

-Willie Allen - gone, never contributed

-Drake Davis - gone contributed little

-Stephen Sullivan - senior backup, contributor

-Jakori Savage - gone, never contributed

- Jamal Pettigrew - may finally contribute as a RS junior

- Donavaugn Campbell - senior backup, never contributed much

- Dee Anderson- Senior backup next year, contributer

Not much to brag on there.

Where are the upperclassmen that should've been drafted in this class? Where are they?

Where are the juniors and seniors that were draft eligible for this draft?

Where are they?

We’ve been saying that for years. They
N 75 percent of who we think gets drafted doesn’t. Fact is LSU players haven’t been great as a whole lately.

How is this even relevant?

Either the people are there or they aren't. They weren't there.

Outside of 3 future NFL RB's, it wasn't stellar overall.

Defensive side was and is still jacked.

Holy chit. He was our first 6 star player?

Edit: It’s interesting that he signed with the Texans as an undrafted free agent.

The fact that we return one of the most experienced teams in the country has something to do with the lower number drafted. There's talent there, just young


Also, maybe, maybe, the players will see that staying an extra year for SOME may enhance their draft status (see Clemson).
