I agree. We have no reason not to field a top 5 defense. We have he highest paid DC in the country.
O got to handpick his OC, again. Star, Urban Meyer coached, QB. Buku talent at WR.
On paper we should contend for the West. At a minimum win 10 games. Including the bowl. So 10-3 at least.

Was Michael Divinity really a 5 star?
247sports had him at #18 overall.

Lol. As much as y’all bitch about us moving goalposts, y’all are doing the same damn thing.

10 wins has been the "goalpost" since 2003.

Honestly, it got to the point where 10 wins was looked at as underachieving and constantly downplayed as mediocre.

I actually think 10-2 is the floor for a SUCCESSFUL season. 9-3 with a win in a non NY6 bowl is nothing we didn’t get virtually every year under the last coach who was fired.
If we go 9-3 again, with a stud DC he inherited, and a stud previously trained QB that fell into his lap, I honestly just don’t see the upward trajectory.
9-3 wouldn’t be fireable unfortunately but it certainly wouldn’t be a feather in Os cap. At that point it would be win the West in 19 or GTFO, possibly in September like his predecessor.
10-2 would virtually guarantee a NY6 Bowl this year. THAT is upward trajectory and a very successful season and one that virtually everyone would applaud.
Two consecutive seasons without 10 wins get National Championship coaches fired in Baton Rouge. Why the frick would it be any different for whatever kind of coach O is?

Are you saying I shouldn’t expect LSU to be good?

Ali and Perry Riley balled out as well

I should be lashed for forgetting about Ali Highsmith. This LB core/Dline has maybe he most potential of any front 7 that I can remember.
ETA: I love that someone downvoted me for saying that we have a great front 7. Can’t win with this Posi-O’s.

Because usually LSU has a weak schedule

2011 was a great schedule. LSU went toe to toe with the best, AND won!!!!
2010 - 11-2 - Cotton - W
2011 - 13-1 (SEC champs) - Natty - L
2012 - 10-3 - Chick-fil-a - L
2013 - 10-3 - Outback - W
2014 - 8-5 - Music City - L
2015 - 9-3 - Texas Bowl - W
2016 - 8-4 - Fired Miles
2016 - 8-4 - Citrus - W
2017 - 9-4 - Citrus - L
So following 4 straight 10+ win seasons, LSU fires their coach mid-year after two sub-10 win seasons.
I'm not sure the expectations could be communicated any more clearly.

Tiger Ree, I highly doubt you possess the guile nor the gumption to say that to his face.

National Ranking by position:
Brumfield (6)
Ingram (13)
Charles (18)
Deculus (10)
Cole Smith (8)
Traore (1 - JUCO)
Lewis (2 - JUCO)
You may not like them, but I doubt you find a single Sunbelt or SWAC O-lineman rated as high.
