Dude Ed lost to fricking Troy in his second year. As bad as last night was, it was far less humiliating than that.

Some of you said the same shite last year about fricking Sun Belt Billy after game one. Let’s watch the whole season and see how Sanders handles an actually very good PAC12 before we crown him.

UGA played for a national title in his second year


Please. UGA fans were understandably tired of Richt, but he didn’t leave Georgia in anything remotely resembling the same condition that O did here. Kirby took over a well-run program with good recruiting and coaching that just needed higher expectations and to take the next step.

Stop with this revisionist history bullshite about Miles:

41-7 2014 Auburn
17-0 2014 to a really bad Arkansas team
31-14 2015 to a still bad Arkansas team
38-17 2015 to Ole Piss

And let’s not forget 1/9/12. His teams checked out and quit on him multiple times.

Les won more than Kelly ever did, miles was frustrating but at least we knew all he needed was a OC with a pulse.

Six tries inside of the 5 and you don't think Miles running game wouldn't have scored?

More revisionist horseshite. Miles was toast after 08 and blew the one shot he had to revive things in 2011 with one of the worst coaching choke jobs in history on the biggest stage. And he coached like a dead man walking after 13 because he knew the ax was coming after they tried to fire him for his behind the scenes bullshite. frick all of this crybaby bullshite.

2008 and before- sure. 09 to 13- maybe. After that- nope. Not against any team with a pulse.

Bottom line is very few wanted Brian Kelly. Everyone was all in on Lincoln Riley.

He lost to fricking Troy in his first year 2017. Then went on to beat FLA in the swamp, Auburn, Ole Miss, Arkansas, Tennesse, and TAMU. 9-3 reg season record.

Losing to ND in the Citrus Bowl.

He fired Matt Canada after only 1 year.

Next year was 2018 w/ Joey B

Then 2019, the greatest team ever.

I’ll say this about Les, at least his teams were tough.

These guys are fricking weak.

This was last year's excuse and it needs to stay last year.

What do you think the roster looked like when Ed O took over from Miles? Miles wasn't exactly burning up the recruiting trails his last couple of seasons.


This is utter bullshite. O won a title with a majority of Miles recruits. In the meanwhile, O & his staff was completely whiffing on recruiting evals & roster management. Only idiots underestimate the damage Ed O did to the LSU Football program. He set the program back several years & left a shite sandwich of a roster for the current staff.

Les Miles could actually recruiting top level elite talent


truth

sad fact of life is, BK brought in his favorite QB and that guye cant play the game worth a shite. BK has no plan "B" so JD is it and next year we have no QB because BK didnt think JD was that bad watching himn in practice.

its a testimate of how screwed this team is when BK watched this team get ready for the season and thought they were a great team that could compete

The Tigers don't have enough solid contributing upperclassmen nor do they have much future NFL talent in the upperclassmen ranks especially in the secondary. You know who would be those upperclassmen right now? Coach O's 2020 & 2021 recruiting classes.

2020 Class

1. Arik Gilbert
2. Eli Ricks
3. Kayshon Boutte
4. Jacquelin Roy
5. BJ Ojulari
6. Jacobian Guillory
7. Jordan Toles
8. Phillip Webb
9. Kevontre Bradford
10. Antoine Sampah
11. Marcus Dumervil
12. Josh White
13. Eric Taylor
14. Alex Adams
15. Ali Gaye
16. Marlon Martinez
17. Kole Taylor
18. Xavier Hill
19. Dwight McGlothern
20. Koy Moore
21. Max Johnson
22. TJ Finley

2021 class

1. Maason Smith
2. Sage Ryan
3. Chris Hilton
4. Deion Smith
5. Brian Thomas Jr.
6. Armoni Goodwin
7. Damarius McGhee
8. Garrett Dellinger
9. Derrick Davis Jr.
10. Landon Jackson
11. Saivion Jones
12. Malik Nabers
13. Garrett Nussmeier
14. Bryce Langston
15. Matthew Langlois
16. Zavier Carter
17. Greg Penn III
18. Corey Kiner
19. Jack Bech
20. Kimo Makaneole
21. Navonteque Strong
22. Jalen Shead
23. Peyton Todd
24. Damian Ramos

****Transfers****
25. Major Burns
26. Mike Jones Jr.

****2019 Notables****

1. John Emery Jr.
2. Kardell Thomas
3. Charles Turner

So Brian Kelly took over a program void of its regular type of talent, a roster loaded with underachievers/busts due to poor scouting evaluations & let's not forget recruiting sanctions thanks to Title IX & recruiting violations by the previous staff.

Kelly & his staff needs to do a better job of bringing in elite, high end talent but the shite sandwich he was left with forced him to play underclassmen immediately (Jones, Campbell, Taylor), continue to play underachieving players & plug less talented players in from the portal.
