Before 2000, you are correct. This program made the improvements, facilities, money, etc. to become a 10 win/year program.

That's a dumb argument. It's all relative. Everyone else has similarly invested in the last 15 years.

ugh


wins - losses are not all.

The games were passing LSU by. It is an entertainment venture and was not entertaining...even in the wins.


To lose is not shameful. To lose and not even be a reasonable facsimile of a modern football offense is inexcusable.

Les didn't get fired because other teams were better, he got fired because we got progressively worse and he sucked on game day.

Because we are right and you are wrong. Truth hurts sometimes, I know. The regression was with Les Miles. Might be hard to recover this season, but next year we will be right back in the fold as usual.

What are you talking about? We were 8/9 win program with crap. Miami and FS was cherry picking our talent. This is a different era my friend and we aren't all young and dumb like you think. We do have intelligent people that post here. I won't say you aren't one of them but well you aren't top 100 for sure.

That article is BS because 8 wins in the 50s and 60s meant an 8-2 season with was pretty, darn good.

But more importantly, in the 1980s and 1990s LSU paid its head coaches peanuts and its assistant coaches even less. We couldn't compete for top level coaches. Starting in December of 1999 LSU started paying top dollar for not only head coaches, but assistant coaches, and first class facilities across the board.

The author of that article is a moron.

Nobody can predict the future. It is not a given LSU will continue to win 10 games per season, but it hardly is a sure thing it will fall back to a 7 win team either.

Things have changed, a lot more money now involved, more exposure, at least for the next 10-15 years LSU has amongst the best facilities in the nation that where not there in the dark days of the 90's. Saban wont' stay around forever either. Bama has proven they can suck pretty good without the right guy in charge, just like everyone else.
