How about Joseph Addai?

Hell, Saban had him at receiver.

What? The guy who left the team 10 years ago then spent more time in drug court than on a football field? How exactly was Saban supposed to use him better? Get the other team baked before kickoff?

If Tommy Banks had gotten the reps and carries that Jacob Hester got, he'd have been an all time great! He was bigger, faster, and stronger than Hester.

I'm not saying Damian James was under utilized, but many many LSU fans were saying it at the time. They wanted him at RB, WR, and even some wanted him at QB. He was barely a serviceable DB.

TM7 on offense

Should had a set of plays.
Anyone that can make people miss on special teams like he did needs to play a few downs on O.

He made the all-SEC team and led SEC in ints his junior season. Left team mid way through senior season. I think we got all we could out of him...I guess we could have put him at wr and benched Josh Reed?

These threads always serve to remind us who should never, ever, EVER try their hand at coaching.

See in football, there's something called a "Defense", and that "Defense" plans for playmakers and our Offensive strengths.

Either you fools think that these players on offense mentioned are far and away better than any SEC defender (which is not the case with anyone mentioned)...or you're the type that when you watch a game you stare at one player per play.

Cecil Collins - not used enough
David LaFleur - Tyler always threw at his feet.
Jarrett Lee - It was working
