Born in 69, so you wasn't around for the first title...something tells me once you've tasted the type of success LSU has had in the past 10 years you won't be so receptive of mediocrity the next time around

i just know you can't win the NC every year. i think we got a chance every year to win the SEC and that's enough for me. i would love to be a top 10 team every year but it's tough in this conference. i was around in the 90's so i know pain and 8-4 ain't pain.

The people I'm talking about would hate him even had we gone 14-0

Ahh, that's just dumb

They hated him when we went 12-2 and hated him when he was hired. It's just a small minority.

Wonder why...I remember when he was hired I read a story from when he had brain surgery or something, he fought the doctors over leaving the hospital a day after so he could recruit some kid. I remember developing a great fondness for the guy, but his on field antics has put a really bitter taste in my mouth.

If Hitler were raised from the dead and he came back and coached this team to an undefeated season I'd be all for it.

FIFY

Happy with recruiting, very unhappy with the coaching up of the players ability.

Every coach has lost a game for reasons that makes the fans scratch their heads.

By that standard, I guess Florida and Texas suck even worse.

Right. Fog the issue by pulling in irrelevant material. I'm not interested in what UF and UTX do, whether they suck or not. I am concerned about LSU, and whether this team is on track for something big, or just slowly spiraling down to the pit of mediocrity.

Please remember something. The era of the bad old days (Stovall, Arnsparger - the exception, Archer, Hallman and Dinardo) was not a planned move to cause misery to LSU. It happened gradually, a season at a time. One day we all woke up and discovered LSU sucks and there was no way out for a long, long time.

As the last two seasons go, the direction looks more to me like a slowly falling leaf and less like a rising star. So yes, I am unhappy and won't be happy until that star rises again and the last two seasons are a distant uncomfortable memory and LSU is again at the top of things, seriously competing and often winning the big games (and not counting the margins of defeat as some here are doing).
