re: Kevin Cope is obviously not a fan...

Oh dear God...just saw his link. This is the kind of guy that everyone avoids at a cocktail party, lest you be trapped in the corner having to discuss 18th century liturature with him while he sips ever so slowly on his chardonnay...

I have an MD...not that it is a big deal, but the point being is that I and a huge majority of my colleagues are big college football fans. It is entertainment, dumbass! I like art, music, and beer as well. Snobs like this get a huge hard on when asked for an opinion in a major publication like this.
they
don't
matter.

Kevin Cope is obviously not a fan...

His remarks in the Times_Picayune on Miles' raise. Why, exactly, are they interviewing this guy?!

Now Cope's a smart guy, and I don't mean to make fun of him. While he counts himself as something of a fan and attends "a few games" each season, he is unconvinced LSU should have football as such a priority. Indeed, he sees the state's obsession with the game in general, and the Tigers in particular, as something like "an index of poverty," in that it points to a dearth of entertainment options he finds more intellectually stimulating.
And this
quote:
"You might say the obsession with football is indicative of the inadequacies of education in Louisiana," he argued, noting the hordes of people who descend on campus on autumn Saturdays largely comprise a "weekend culture with no interaction with the university" beyond the game.

Also, the point of the post was to illustrate that Manziel accomplished a feat that has been done over 30 times in NCAA history.
We, however, are excited about 3 250+ yd games for the first time in a season in over 20 years. I like progress as much as any Tiger fan.
My hope is that this translates into an AVERAGE of 250 yds passing for 2013!

so because we haven't had a kid like Manziel we don't develop our QBs?
No, because we have had a five star Russell Shepard, Jamarcus Russell (#1 pick), Matt Flynn, Rohan Davy. All of them had talent, but were usually reduced to 'game managers' in our style of offense. Don't get me wrong, I'll take a Nat. Championship with a game manager any day.
But it seems as though we don't take QB talent to the next level, and haven't for a couple of decasdes at least. That is our modus operandi

Just love to see the players genuine first reactions to the video...they look like we all do when watching CLM

Player in NCAA FBS history with three games of at least 300 passing yards and 100 rushing yards in the same season -- Texas A&M QB Johnny Manziel. Entering the 2012 season, this feat had been accomplished 39 times, and four players had done it twice, making Manziel the career leader in his freshman season.

We don't develop our QBs at LSU. It is never given the priority/attention that other programs give it. I think we have recruited very well in this area, but we don't measure up to other programs at all in this discipline.

Saban's not going to live forever. Neither will Miles. There's always drop offs when coaches get replaced. Had Kiffen stayed at UT they might be pretty good right now. Don't know why you'd think UT will never be good again.
Are you high?? Kiffen was/is/always will be a narcissistic train wreck of a coach!
But you ARE right about the ebb and flow of programs with drop-offs after coaches leave. Didn't everyone enjoy the years 1995-2007 when Bama was down(sometimes WAY down) and a non-factor. Now they are surging strong. It will happen again with UT/Auburn/Arkansas, to varying degrees
quote:
But we are where we are because the O was putrid v Florida and honestly Florida while ranked highly isn't that good
And we are here because we pissed the Bama game away with poor coaching decisions, stupid penalties, missed FG and poor play in final 2 minutes of each half on D.
Well said

This LSU team regardless of SEC scheduling should have found a way to win one of those games.
If it makes folks feel better to bitch about Slive ok. But this team had a chance to be a 1 or zero loss team and we did not get the job done.
It sucks but let's not whine about the schedule.
Indeed
All the whining makes our board sound like 11-14 year olds complaining about what is not fair. We can complain about Florida, but they also have to play US!! Not an exciting proposition from their standpoint. The rules were the same when UT was a damn good team in the decade of the 90's, and with Georgia and SC now.
Take care of business, and there is no discussion about fairness

Champions Bowl fits in where? Is it just a new name/substitute for the Sugar? If so, why re-name the same bowl?? It was announced recently it is in N.O. So...what is the difference?

Like everything else...the almighty dollar rules. If it doesn't turn a profit...then it will stop happening. Money is like oxygen.
Sorry...prob won't get it fixed.
I'll continue to lurk and watch you, master.

The jumbotron at UT (they only have one in the south end zone) is HUGE. However, 40% of it is used for the same thing...advertising during the game and for replays. The entire thing is used when videos promoting the athletic program are played at twice the normal volume.
It is always, always about the $$$$

The people...definitely, and the chants. It keeps up the energy, the noise, the show. No other school keeps the energy up for so long, or can. I go to UT games here in Knoxville...it is like a pro game.
