None of that matters if we win.

Kiffin, for better or worse, is a modern coach for modern times.

He just hasn't proven he can go that last mile. He's going to have to prove he can go that last mile to gain me. I was skeptical from the beginning.

not taking points, not making sound decisions and trying to make LSU into some freak show of celebrities and distractions. I don't think we'll win next week. Nor at Tennessee.


I think for sure we lose @Tenn. Maybe we edge one against (a flawed) Texas team, but I think that 1-2 or 2-1 the rest of the way are about equally likely.

frick off and find another team then. Some of you schizophrenic frickheads who twist in the wind just like political moderates are a fricking joke. Less than a season and you’re ready to fire and would rather be right than see this come together.

It’s year one. As disappointing as this weekend was, we are undoubtedly better off than we were at this time last year. If you debate that, then you are one clueless motherfricker. Casual beyond redemption. Not worth fricking talking to. There is not a single aspect of the team that isn’t better off today. It sucks that we had to pay such a high price, but most of that falls on Kelly. When you shed over 50 players and only 3-5 are playing well enough that you might miss them, that should tell you all to need to know.

We still need a lot of improvement and expectations will obviously be higher next year. But if you don’t have the stomach for this, go the frick away and find something else to do with your time. If this is all you’ve got, then you aren’t built for college football today.

Lane loves mobile QBs and I think he over estimated his ability to figure out the throwing / long yardage how to m do that at this point in the season


You should pay better attention. He flat out said before the season that downfield passing was going to be a challenge because of how many smaller receivers we have. He telegraphed that the offense would look different than what he and Weiss ran at Ole Miss last year. And now it turns out that most of those smaller receivers can’t get separation on their own. Only Harris has really made that true step forward.

Lane and Wise probably thought they would be able to use Green to help scheme things open downfield, but he’s been out, and he’s obviously still not 100%, even though he’s back.

Leavitt is inconsistent, but the REAL limiting factors are the interior of the OL and the WRs not being able to beat coverage for intermediate and long throws. No QB can be successful throwing to WRs who are covered up.

Celeb walks should probably end. Gotta put some serious skins on the wall before doing that.

As far as bailing rather quickly, he listed about five things that he disagreed with that have happened since the 70s and the only thing that you have to offer is to call him a bandwagon fan. You are the prime example of what the LSU fan base has become. Low IQ people with an idiotic viewpoint, but absolutely no suggestion on how to bring back the game day experience.


Go look at the title of this thread. When the OP stupidly lays things at the feet of the new head coach when they are things he’s not directly dealing with and have been in place for a while, he’s going to rightfully get drug for being a ridiculous drama queen.

In reality, all of that is window dressing bullshite to try and cobble together an argument for bailing out nine games into year one. He made it clear who and what he’s really bitching about in the title.

Meanwhile Ole Miss did better with $10M less and a high school stadium.


It’s baffling how casual some of you who pretend to follow this sport are.

Did Ole Miss replace all but four players on the 2 deep of their offense in one offseason? No, they poured $35 million on top of a roster with a star quarterback and running back for the same fricking results that we have right now.

And for anyone who thinks shedding all those players on offense was a mistake, go look at how those players have all performed elsewhere. Especially those who are playing in the SEC. We’re talking about 3 to 5 players that we might actually miss this year after a complete offensive overhaul.

Anyone that has celebrities walked downhill with him on victory hill says all you need
To know. This is a clown show. Maybe at some point we can get back to playing football.

LSU needed to absolute gut all the waste in the coaching and put that money to use in players on the field. Instead they doubled down on it.


There has never been the level of parity that we have right now across the top of the P4 in the history of college football. Ever. If coaching didn’t matter, Oregon would have a couple of titles today. Texas would have at least one under Sark. Georgia, which is spending less on its roster than at least five or six other teams in the SEC, would be sinking instead of the number one team in the fricking nation and looking like the deepest and best team using recruiting and retention over the portal.

If you think coaching doesn’t matter today, then you don’t know ball. It has never mattered more than right now. The argument about coaching salaries is completely separate. We just started revenue sharing and direct payments to players. Over time, there will probably be a market reaction that drives coaching salaries down, even for the top coaches.

However, that hasn’t happened yet. That’s likely going to take years to really take hold. We couldn’t take that fricking chance right now and make a risky hire just to save a few fricking dollars. We aren’t Florida state. We aren’t as financially restricted and bound by a cheap ACC TV contract.

I was and it was far from amazing after 1973. Mac was run out of town. Mediocre football and football coaches after that until NS. I feel better about where we are now than anytime between the mid 70s and early 2000s And I was at almost all of those games.

With very little coming in the red zone. Our QB played poorly. He could not convert at critical times, which has been his MO this season. We have had three close games (Bama didn’t end close, but it was close after three quarters), and in all three he looked bad at money time. When the game hung in the balance he did poorly - in all three.


He doesn’t exist in a vacuum. The entire offense played poorly in those stretches, especially the offensive line. The wide receivers not getting open is also a big fricking problem and has been all year.

I’m not saying Leavitt is blameless, but he can only do so much if both of those units are also struggling at the same time. All three need to be better.

Alabama had similar success running the ball. LSU stoned them all game long, yet they won easily.


They held up in pass protection far better than our offensive line did, especially after Davis went down. With their starting center back, they did not struggle and give up sacks the way they did at UT.

You and Dabo should start a bowling team. I’ve been around since the 70’s and love where we’re going. Get with the times, brother.
