How many titles would we have had if both Manning brothers had stayed home.

Was talking to my step uncle over the holiday and we got into a debate about how many titles the Tigers would have had if the Mannings had been Bengals instead of going out of state. My guess was 2 for Peyton and 1 for Eli. He was saying 0 for Payton because the team was weaker in the 90's and 2 for Eli because of the strength of the team. Thoughts???

Considering Tenn was better than LSU in the 90's and Peyton still had 0 I would go with 0. MAYBE LSU wins the west once but they don't beat Florida in Atlanta.

Booty was actually the higher rated prospect but he went baseball and the talent level at LSU at that time was nowhere near what Tenn and Fla had.
Eli was not as heralded coming out as Peyton was, Saban did not even really recruit him. Not sure if that was because it was a foregone conclusion he wasn't interested in LSU. Even Ole Miss at the time was recruiting more athletic dual threat QB's under Tuberville before Cutcliffe came in.
I think Cutcliffe gets the lion share of developing both Mannings and looking at what he's done at Duke kind of tells me Cutcliffe had a lot to do with developing both of them.

It's not and I don't. At least I'm not a freaking Penn Fan. How many wins the Quakers got?

1997 team could have won the SEC with Peyton Manning.
2003 team would have been better with Eli.

There is another Manning in 8th grade at Newman now. He seems to pretty good.

LSU would have been the greatest team in the history of sports

The Mannings have a lot of respect for Cutcliffe, without him being at Ole Miss Eli's decision might not have been as easy. Check out the video they were still working with him during their NFL offseasons.

Yeah, his name is Arch. Quotes from Archie on his kids going to LSU.
quote:
"One of Peyton's regrets is that he didn't get to play (as Tennessee's QB in Tiger Stadium). People on the radio get on me a little bit saying I kept my boys from going to LSU, and that wasn't true. I let my kids make their own decisions, didn't influence them. They both visited LSU and they went to games almost every Saturday night, almost every home game. "When Curley (Hallman) was there, Peyton was convinced Josh Booty was going to LSU and he wasn't going the same place Josh was going. Eli was the same way with Brock Berlin. Of course, he didn't. They made visits. It wasn't an anti-LSU thing at all. I've lived in New Orleans 44 years. I've lived in Louisiana a lot longer than I lived in Mississippi. I have great LSU friends. It's fun. I'm not an LSU hater. I'm a strong Southeastern Conference guy.

I didn't follow recruiting back then, so I cannot say you are wrong. But, I feel like this is wrong. I recall the consensus being that Eli's physical ability was superior to Peyton's (before Peyton juiced).
