You have nothing to back up your argument and would like to continue to call me dumbass


I called you a dumbass because you said there was no "medium" at LSU then proceeded to list a level of skills which included a "medium.

Dude! get over it!


Tucotiger you are right! I have been a Miles supporter, but at the end of the day. His offensive play calling is very vanilla at best. When teams are able to match LSU' s depth in the trenches and they can't run the ball effectively, they struggle the whole game. Bottom line is! LSU has the best talent in the country. Forget those DAMN recruiting rankings. The product on the field speaks for itself. Every team that faces LSU, the first thing the coaches say is LSU will be the best team we have to face. What do they say about Alabama? There talented, very disciplined. They don't beat themselves. It's no secret that LSU leads the SEC Conference in the most players in the NFL followed by Georgia. This again speaks to LSU' s talent level. The time has come for Les Miles to get his finger out of his ear and pull his head out of his arse! And go and get those Crystal Footballs!! Geaux Tigers!!!

Sorry, didnt know you talk for all the houstonites


I work in Houston quite a bit. There is no home team, but the closest is UT followed closely by A&M. There's an awful lot of LSU and Oklahoma, too. There are hundreds of thousands of transplanted Louisianians in Houston.

Shep is only saying what everyone is thinking. I don't think that's wrong.

Maybe true, but those guys are removed from LSU.

The season is over, but RS is still at the university. Still just weird to me.. plus those other guys are just frustrated and still want what is best for the university.. Shep comes off as over LSU. I just don't think it was right and if anything it was the perfect opportunity to praise a&m, but still give LSU credit. like i said tho. I'm glad he's out.

like what Washington used in which Shep would do great in.


Are you trying to say he's as good as RGIII, Garcon, Moss?

If he was that good nobody would have been able to keep him of the field, but himself

Yeah the great majority of his runs were straightline, can't think of him making someone miss or breaking a tackle since his HS video.

His Freshmen highlights.

This is how he should have been used his whole career. Good straight line speed and some elusiveness.

Oh for crying out loud is this the tweet you mean?

Texas A&M is going to be scary good the next couple of years... If I was a Texas high school recruit I would go there now..


Looks from the timeline that he tweeted that either during or shortly after the Cotton Bowl. There is nothing negative about LSU in that tweet.

He really didn't say anything that most of us aren't thinking. He'll get over it.

waste of time Rog showing highlights, they'll just shoot it down. Until Les Miles does something about that offense, LSU will always play second fiddle to Alabama unless Saban leaves, and I hope to hell that happens.

his 1st TD vs Tulane comes to mind. as do some of the runs vs. UGA as a freshman, a 1st down conversion vs. Bama, a bubble screen TD he caught in 2011.

no Shep wasn't Harvin, but he wasn't as ineffective as a lot of our fans seem to think.

In 2001 Tennessee and Florida were much better programs than LSU. Things can and do change quickly. Both programs can be good but I guarantee A&M will be ranked higher at the start of next season.

I'd say Alabama, Oregon, and Notre Dame are all hotter, so yes it's news to me.

It's been so long, I think people forgot how promising he looked early in his career out of the backfield. All they remember is the failed attempt to convert him to a WR.

Either a lot of stupid fans, or short memories. he showed a lot of talent early on.

Being better =/= being hot, but there can be more than one however you want to phrase it.

A&M is easily the hottest program in Texas and the tweet in question is about Texas recruits, so..
