I’m only 46, but I’m a TigerDroppings Boomer…..

Here since August 2004…

The real boomers might still be on Tiger Roar

Sept 2003 for me.

Celebrated 3 football and 3 baseball NC teams with fellow TD boomers. Still waiting on Men’s basketball.

good luck with that. I hope Wade knocks it out of the park, but some of you on here think he is a legend already, despite him never being on the bench in a sweet 16 game. He has solid teams and generates excitement, for sure. Dale created a ton of excitement too, and eventually started getting LSU very deep in the tourney and was considered a team you didn't want to face in March. Wade will need to do that at some point to get the credit he would deserve.

I’m getting more and more excited each day but DAMN that’s a tough schedule.

I lurked for quite awhile before registering, I tend to procrastinate like that
I was reading this for a few years before I started posting.

I'm excited for football to start up, but honestly it feels more like we're going the right direction with a coach again, and not that we're going to win a title or anything yet. I don't think we're on top of the world like we were a couple decades ago yet. I think that's a couple years away, assuming CFB doesn't self-destruct by then. I'm ready for a head coach to at least give a shite again.

As for basketball, not the slightest clue whether things will be good, or if it all blows up in our faces. Here's hoping we're relevant in that again.

You're OLD!

For most of the last 20 years, I've been embarrassed by LSU football coaches. Never a fan of Lucky Les or BK, as they wasted so much talent, made questionable decisions in games, and they were often a joke with a microphone in their hands. BK was extremely arrogant and fleeced us (Woody with the assist) in the end. I was proud of CEO being home grown, however he blew himself up after amassing the uber talented 2019 team.

Kiffin is in a whole different league as a coach. He is extremely intelligent, knows football, thinks ahead, excellent at making decisions and play calls in the heat of battle, works hard, recruits well, attracts top notch assistant coaches, handles media like a pro, has the respect of players, and he brings swagger to a whole new level.

I truly believe we will see exciting LSU football and win many big games with Lane at the helm!

My “come-to-Jesus” moment was being able to attend the LSU/Florida 1997 game in the student section as a Jr. in high school.

Mine was the week after. I’m 6 years younger than you. I remember the SI cover after that game. Hooked for life.

Dec 2004 here

Let’s do this!
