I live in the bay area and stuck watching a bunch of 49er football. Mingo, if uses the same as mostly as a stand-up pass rusher, could come in and look a lot like Aldon Smith.

I'm not saying he would have the same success, but they are similar body type/style. Again, the right fit for him as a pass rusher in a 3-4 might turn out to be a good fit for Mingo. Best of luck to him.

You know damn well this ESPN is quietly celebrating Hebert going to town on Miles. It does not matter if you agree with Hebert or not at this point. He is not just soiling Miles name but LSU's as well.

Please take that from someone who roots very hard for LSU from California and works with people who only get their sports new from "the WWL"...

I kept hearing last year from my sister and her son in Belle Chasse who played high school ball w/James Wright that he was Texas all the way.

Just saying.

I was in the military from 97-08. Between Texas/Arizona/Florida from 97-99, Hawaii 99-03, North Texas again in 03, and now California to this day since 03.

This is a tought question. Yes "The World Wide Leader" kills LSU's exposure. Yes the sales numbers do speak for themselves. But I don't see it in the stores outside Louisiana and never really have. Even during the championship seasons.

If I want LSU lootz, and I always do, I need to go online. I know this. My wife DEFINITELY knows this :cheers:.

As a brand, I would think LSU is a brand. A brand created and cultivated very well by its own fanbase in Louisiana. So from what I can tell, LSU fans might be putting money back into its own better than any other fan base.

Just a thought

First post:

I'm from New Orleans area and long since been transplanted to California after a lengthy military career. For a much as I've bashed and been aggravated with Les Miles (just now really warming up to him as coach), Crowton, ect over the years, I’m reminded by these clowns out here to appreciate what I have: a winner.

I’m surrounded by fan for a moment California team fans and transplanted Ohio St., Texas, ‘Bama, and other notable BCS school fans. And no matter the argument, when I talk LSU football, I win every damn argument.

I know I couldn’t be as patient with LSU if I was back home attending games and talking LSU with fellow LSU faithful on a regular basis, but take heart that we really are better and largely more respected than most football programs out there.













PS: Crowden sucks.
