Gary Pegues. SHould've been the water boy, not starting safety.

Melvin Hill. SHouldve never been a QB. Not sure what else he couldve done.

Do you happen to sit in the south endzone? When LSU played VA tech in 2007 I got a drink thrown on me for saying Hester was also a good rb. This guy went on and on about how Saban recruited Williams so he must be better and blah blah blah. Then Hester scored and I pointed it out to him because I couldn't take it anymore. He threw his drink and was escorted out before things got ugly for him. His family took the verbal abuse well for the rest of the game though.

In the chances RS was given he never showed he deserved more playing time.

Many people thought Banks should be the featured back. I think it was during the Mike Alstott in the NFL years, so I think they had that on their minds.

I do think Dickson was not used enough. The guy was a beast and voted to wear #18. As soon as he put on that jersey, LSU decided to not throw him the ball as often. No idea what happened.

Reid and Loston. using either to cover a WR in man was just asking for trouble.

I stand by my belief that is Russel Sheppard was in the right system, he could have been an integral part of the offense, but i will leave that alone. Another guy i believe is Michael Ford, he was a much better back than Spencer Ware IMO, yet he was never really given alot of touches

Throughout LSU football history, which players were considered by the fanbase to be not used correctly (i.e. not used enough, not used at the right position, not given the ball more often, etc etc) by the LSU coaching staff at the time.


Doug Planchard... We should have let him do more than raise trophies...

Well, something else he tried to "do" got him in trouble after his playing days...

How exactly should we have used Shep?

If you say more involvement in the running game, don't even bother replying. The guy is too light to be a back, and the only success we ever had with him rushing was on jet sweeps.. If we started to do that a lot teams would expect it when he is on the field.

Shep was just a bust. Face it. If he was a good QB, he would have played it. If he was a good WR, he would have been higher on the depth chart.
