I always like to see these evaluations by 5’ 3” 117 lb keyboard warriors whose claim to fame was the 8 and under rec league opener where they made a 16’ prayer of a bank shot and got the longest shot of the day trophy, who would be crying and calling an ambulance if they took a charge from either Poa or Van Lith in a pick up game. Both are very good college players who compete very well on the national stage, and who hopefully laugh at sleazy, unintelligent posters like you.
Are you by chance in Madison? If so, how do you do it?
Jamie had a great arm and would have had a much better time in Baton Rouge if he’d only had a better OC or a “passing game coordinator” like he we had last year...

Al Woods’ roommate was walk-on freshman Seth Fruge, now a resident in plastic surgery at Harvard. Fruge turned a walk-on special teams role into a 35 year million dollar career... much better that the NFL in the long run.,

re: Will Texas claim Louisiana?

It’s true that we have had our way lately with the Horns and Aggies (except for the outlier game in College Station in ‘18). But I’m conflicted. Texas is the only state to win its independence from a foreign nation (I know, with help from people from Louisiana [Bowie] and Tennessee [Crockett] and other states, but just follow this for a minute) and for that reason I give them a pass on the “Don’t Mess With Texas” stuff. So I’m glad they’re our neighbors, even if they’re a bit quirky and strange, but in 1836 they were kicking Santa Anna’s butt...
I can see both sides on this one. Ausberry went into the talks on a mission to play in Houston, and Alvarez could not figure out why LSU wouldn't want to play a home and home. Ausberry was going to find a team to play LSU in Houston, so when Alvarez proposed the home and home, Ausberry was not interested (LSU wanted to give the Houston alumni a "home" game). He didn't need to tell Wis why a Houston game was the only reason they were talking. Then Wis proposed the Lambeau game, and that looked attractive to LSU just because of the history of the place. Like most things, there are two sides to the story because there are two different perceptions of the talks.
Rohan was a beast! I forgot how well he played through that injury- definitely one of my favorite Tigers

Was one of my favorite games. I forgot that the UAB loss was the week before. Great game for Rohan and Reed, that was a turning point for the program.
So you admit that other players on the defense (Allen, Hunter and Rasco) did not perform up to your lofty standards in 2013. You also, in your latest post, admit that you often got headaches from watching Tre White in coverage. Wow, 36 posts since you came on this board this month, and 20 of them you have used to bash Welter and a few other players, but mostly Welter. The second leading tackler on the team, the guy is a leader on the team on the Unity Council, and who by all accounts, including by Les and Chief, is their defensive leader and someone they are counting on heavily in the upcoming season. Both on the field and in mentoring the younger players, teaching the younger linebackers how the position needs to be played. We have no problem discussing LSU football here, but you were never interested in that. You just come on here to anonymously bash LSU players. You no longer have any credibility. Someone who joins the board and immediately becomes obsessed with bashing one LSU player every day has zero credibility. Not hard for everyone to see your agenda. You have quickly become irrelevant, and predictably nobody will be listening when you spew your venom for Welter or any other LSU player. Nice try though. Now you can go back to your job at Wal Mart and picking those carts up from the parking lot.

So you're the one! Our kids needed smelling salts after that, but Brick signed their hats so they didn't even notice the contusions or memory loss on the drive home.
Great post. D line will always be the key to success. If they do their jobs, the back 7 can then do their jobs. When we have had great defenses, the d line was the key. Not as easy for the casual fan to see in real time, but I have a good feeling about Lacouture and Thomas inside this year, and Rasco and Hunter should be even better.
You are correct. The 21 solo tackles by Minter was in his first year starting in 2011. That's the apples to apples- Minter's great 2012 season that everyone remembers was when he was playing fast and knew the defense really well. When people say that 80 tackles by a MLB is piss poor or that 25 solo tackles must be the lowest total in LSU history, they have short memories. Minter's 21 solos in 2011 was just a few years ago. Many here wanted Chief to find another MLB when Minter was just getting it together in 2011. Glad he stuck with the guy he believed in.
Interesting analysis. It made me curious as to Minter's stats his first year playing MLB. Minter in 2012: 21 solo tackles, 40 assists, 1 sack, and only 3 unassisted tackles for loss, for a total of -15 yards. Minter also had 1 pbu, 1 PD, and 1 qbh. By your logic, Chief should have found someone else to play Mike in 2012. That would have been a shame, as Minter had a great 2nd year playing the position. Just comparing apples to apples. I think Minter's 2012 year shows that Chief knows what he is doing with the MLB position.. It is also fairly easy to see that Chief asks his MLB to do much more than just play his own position, which takes longer to develop than the other positions.
That's awesome for him! He was very nice to our young son during the tournament at Le Triomphe in Lafayette a few years ago. Great to see a good guy doing well.
Agree on widening Highland and Nicholson. That would probably be 1/2 the solution by itself (if widening Highland is even possible). But the truth is, BR is not set up to handle the traffic that comes with large crowds, like we have seen at Jerry World or in Atlanta.
LSU has done a fairly good job of handling this type of offense, with Oregon the first big challenge coming to mind. It seems that a coaching staff, against the no huddle, has to train its players to handle a variety of different situations somewhat autonomously. Saban likes to entirely control his defense, from personnel packages to coverages, from the sideline, and the hurry up no huddle does not give him that luxury. Our staff seems to do a better job of coaching up the players who are on the field to quickly make the right calls on their own.

Wow! Some of these posters who sit in their room watching on their big screen tv's, and they obviously never played football successfully at any level. It's not a perfect sport- but our defense has now held our last 2 SEC opponents without a td for 6 quarters, and Alexander, Barrow and Welter are our top 3 tacklers- some people can come to such negative conclusions out of positive things. Kudos to the D- they have gelled and are playing great team defense!

And Tharold Simon. Seven guys with another year to play enter the draft. And we are still 5-1 and a top 10 team! Other programs would be under .500 and in total disarray. Much credit to this coaching staff for their job this year. :geauxtigers:
