If LSU had Tim Tebow or Colt McCoy yall probably would have won 3 NCs.


UT and UF have just as much if not more talent than LSU and neither of them won three NC's with their respective quarterback. Not to mention Bama just won the NC with a quarterback that many would simply describe as adequate.

If LSU fires Les I hope yall get a terrible coach to replace him.


why wait until LSU fires him? PLEASE hire him now!!!

You are perceptive that our spoiled punk fans don't remember or care about remembering when we had a shitty program


i vividly remember the bad years. i recognized bad coaching then and recognize it now. Mike Archer is just like Miles, but could not recruit....hence he could only hide behind talent for two years. Curley Hallman never really had the talent to hide behind.

I wish our fanbase wasn't so whiny.

I went to UVA undergrad. Those fans deserved to whine.

Les Miles is a fantastic coach who has managed to have had the best winning percentage of any LSU Coach in five years ever.

Also, LSU was one of three teams to have a winning record in the SEC last year (Alabama and Florida obviously being the other two).

If you expect to win a NC every year and expect the coach to get fired for not winning one every year, you sir are an idiot.

And why are our defensive backs and receivers great?

They arent that great considering the skills they had prior to coming here.

The Coaches are responsible for recruiting. Do you expect them to recruit 22 positions and special teams flawlessly?

Besides, our QBs are not terrible. Jefferson will be pretty good. Last year he threw about two touchdowns every game and maybe one interception. He didn't do that badly. Another year under his belt will do him well.

Stop Whining!

Certainly not with the Lou Tepper defense LSU ran in 08.

No use argue with them. The Rant is the only place where these idiots can pretend they know anything.

When the likes of Matt Flynn, JaMarcus Russel and Jordan Jefferson are under center dont expect dynasties.



you just named the best QB in 2006 and a QB that was above average and in the NFL (+ won a NC)

if we could get QB's like Flynn and JR year in and year out, we would be insanely good

JL,Garrett, and JJ have the talent. Lee was an elite 11 QB

I was simply stating how LSU has an outstanding coach and people were quick to crucify me


Those same people will be in the stands or watching on TV come Sept. It's not a big deal.

05 to 07 was the best 3 year period in LSU history with 07 being a NC. Fans, like all of us in all avenues of life, get spoiled very easy and never wish to return to the non-spoiling days.

I think the bitching, although unseemly at times and over the top at other times, comes from a fear of losing our elite status we obtained this decade more than anything else. Plus, we LSU fans like to bitch a lot on general principles. I think there is something in the water down here.

Good luck with your efforts to right the Michigan ship.

Wrong... they have great defenses... good running games.... control the clock because of it and have quaterback play that doesn't turn the ball over......

Sooo many opinions about the state of the LSU football program with sooo little knowledge about the game of football on this board.......
