Understood. Others just disagree

Whut? Why would anyone think not?
Never an argument over the #5 ranked 2015 class, in fact I'm pretty sure Ed just arrived LSU a couple weeks prior to '15 NSD.
Carry on.

ETA: Recheck the post. You confuse #15 with '15 maybe? I'll take the high road and leave the reading comp comments alone.

We’ve been just above average for most of our history.

Excluding the ivy league schools, we were top 15 in all time wins

I think you’re confusing where he said #15 rank and the 2015 class, fwiw.

“ disappointing”

I think the word used most was under achieving. But now 10-3, 5-3 is labeled as crushing it or great.

I guess it only took a 4 loss season with one of those losses being our first loss to a non-power five team in over 15 years and a historic series loss for us to label 10-3, 5-3 as season seen at “crushing it”.

Whatever the case, I think we all hope that next season will be a yr LSU truly crushes it and regains its place at the top of the west.

Finishing ranked 6th isn’t crushing it?

It's not.

It's taking other things into consideration as well.

That’s cause your head was too far up les Miles last 3 years that you missed that comedy of errors. I’m sure you go to sleep at night longing for Texas bowl victories & getting blown out by ark & ole miss at the end of each year

Isn't that weird?

5-3 in the SEC essentially got one guy fired. 5-3 a couple of years later, "crushing it."

NO. Finishing 6th is good. Winning a natty is "crushing it".

In Les' coaching career at LSU ('05 to '16) he had a grand total of six Olinemen drafted. That's a twelve year span. Maybe one or two tops was a legit OT. Recruiting OTs was his MAJOR fail point at LSU.

That record setting "O" of '16 became record setting once EdO and steve e took over.
