Its a legit question. If you were a CFB player and all you kept hearing was how horrible your team was, etc wouldn't it at least stick in the back of your mind?

As a team. I would want to be the leader and say LOOK this is what OUR fans are saying about us, Lets kick some arse. As the coach, He KNOWS what people are saying and doesn't seem to have the answer.

What if your team lacks leadership?

If they quit going to the games? Yes. General bitching-no.

I thought about the leadership this after I hit submit. I guess you are right, if the team lacks leadership it has nothing to do with the fan base.

You think you have no impact? Even after Landry posted on here and other 'outed' atheletes?
They read this shite and say 'man we suck'.
You think the most popular messagebaord for LSU on the planet doesn't get visited by the football players after they get back in town?
Really? Like..because atheletes don't have Internet access or computers?
Its terrible for people to go on and on and on about how horrible this team is. Now we might have a few read the boards and believe it.
Whatever happened to being positive and maybe the team will overachieve?
Its disgraceful the way people have acted this season. Save your bitching for the offseason because you're going to have NO IMPACT on the current season..except to maybe demoralize a few football players.
Its not like they're beyond the same emotions that YOU feel at 18..19..20 years old.
You people should be ashamed of yourself.

absolutely...
case in point was the booing of J Lee last year in tiger stadium...no one on the planet can be booed by 95,000 people every time he steps on the field and not be effected negatively by it...you can make yourself feel better by saying that you were booing the decision to use him or booing the action and not the man...but if you booed, you have to take partial credit for 8-5....
you'd better believe a fan base can ruin a program....

I don't know, but we're sure giving it a good shot

bama was kinda ruined during the late 90's-saban.
Nebraska's fan base can get spicy as well as Ohio State and Mich.
I cannot think of anyone else maybe throw A&M in that mix.

Some of you people are so epicly fricking stupid that I can't even begin to comprehend the levels to which your idiocy extends.
Do you, fricking idiot, believe that LSU is the 4th best team in the country? If you do, you're beyond help. If you don't, then your point is fricking stupid and you need to STFU and GTFO.

I'm not for booing or bashing of players, but I'd like an example of when a fan base ruined a program. It's absurd unless the fan base is paying the players and the program gets the death penalty.
There's probably 10 times more evidence of a fan base complaining helps to turn around a program compared to ruin it.

The same things being posted here are also being posted on other top tier program's boards too. I went to USC's to read and they're ready to ship PC out after a lackluster win yesterday too.

Yeah, that's really the point, isn't it? All this wailing and moaning, gnashing of teeth and hand-wringing really accomplish nothing, and, can be counterproductive to the team's success. All it does make the wailer/moaner feel better, I guess, and perhaps divert his attention from his own pathetic miserable life.

so as a fan base we should hop skip on the the parade grounds for having both the worse defense and offense in the sec?
I notice a common trend with the coolaid drinkers. They are the same ones that defended Dinardo til the day he was fired.
