Lets just hope the inside stays strong, despite all the departures. ...

For too long LSU couldn't score outside of the paint. That changed a bit last year. If the jump shots improve, this team could be good....
Based on media reports, this group is C+/B-. Maybe they will be better, but best in LSU history? If that is true, then they will need to prove the pundits wrong. If the pundits are correct, this group is slightly better than your average bear. Let's hope the pundits are wrong....
How come no one outside LSU fans has this crew ranked very high. Most folks have LSU backs low on the SEC rankings....
DB's look strong for sure, and ESPN likes LSU's special teams. In other positions, ESPN places LSU squarely in the middle of the SEC. Obviously QB is a concern, and defensive line and linebacker will be a work in progress, but ESPN is clearly not sold on the LSU tailbacks....

WR's Everywhere, but no QB's

Posted by jacksimmons2000 on 2/20/15 at 10:11 pm
LSU keeps signing great WR's and duel threat QB's that turn out to be no threat at all. Is there a passing QB on the horizon I don't know about? ...
It's true. The tigers basketball team is playing its way into the NIT. Still missing the outside shot......
Williams and LF are amazing and they will both be stronger and faster next Fall. Also, the LSU OL is likely to be better. These guys have the potential to light it up next year. ...
I love LSU's front court, and the back court is greatly improved, but LSU's back court still needs to be much better for an elite 8 appearance. But they are going in the right direction. ...
"cute RB by committee" That's funny. I would trade any one of LSU's tailbacks for a B+ QB. If LSU had a B+ QB they would likely have won four more games last year....
I think everyone, especially Les, is hoping that one of the QB's will have a transformational spring. In that case, LSU should be in the SEC Title hunt. ...
Hate to be a hater, but I have to agree with the concern about the QB position. OL should be better. RB is fully loaded. Defense is hard to predict, given so many changes. QB no reason to expect improvement here. The SEC West is a hard place to play without a solid QB....
Hester was not particularly talented. Hester was determined. Sometimes, that is better. In 2007, that was better....
2015 might be better. Let's hope so, because the QB situation might be a lot worse....
I am not a negatron, but Miles does seem to have a problem with fitting his QB to his offense, or fitting his offense to his QB. Most high school coaches can do this. I haven't figured out why Les has so much trouble in this area....
Garry James Dalton Hilliard Craig Rathjen Garland Jean Batiste This crew was pretty darn good in 1983....
That is one of the most talented backfields in college football, but the offensive line has not lived up to the hype. They have been below average. If the offensive line improves, the running game could be deadly. ...
In October: #1 QB - Miles #2 QB - Harris #3 QB - Jennings...
Not sure why Miles refuses to recruit a solid QB prospect. Other schools do it. But Miles is always recruiting "duel threat projects." I have nothing against Jennings or Harris, but LSU plays a drop-back style offense, and recruits duel threat players. I am confused. :geauxtigers:...

2014 is 1998 all over again

Posted by jacksimmons2000 on 9/24/14 at 4:24 pm
Saturday's game against Mississippi State reminded me of the 1998 game in Tiger Stadium against Georgia. Georgia won 28-27, but the game never felt that close. LSU's defense could never stop Georgia when it needed to, and the offense looked one-dimensional. LSU finished 2-6 in the SEC in 1998. ...
