re: Spag's 1st words to Payton

Gregg Williams is a good defensive coordinator, just as Spagnuolo is.
Their styles are different, though, and I'm looking forward to see the improvements he makes after the draft and free agency this year.
Our D could not cover Vernon Davis at all in our last game, but they couldn't really cover Jimmy Graham either.....

Kasay's still very accurate, despire his age. He could probably go at it for another few years, but Hartley's definitely got the leg to go the distance. I don't see Hartley going anywhere anytime soon, but here's hoping that John can catch on with another team, if he decides to play a few more years.

You're right, there will be casualties, unfortunately.
I think Brees will push for us to keep Colston for sure, as he's likely to be one of the hottest free agents on the market due to his size and good hands.
Depending on who stays or leaves, I have no doubt that Payton and staff will address those in free agency and the draft.

Drew Brees will definitely get a new deal.
Re-signing Colston, Nicks, Dunbar, and Porter should be a top priority, while Daniel, Meachem, and Collins need to stay on board as well.

A lack of quality at the QB has hurt LSU for most of Miles' tenure here. Ran into former Tiger QB Marcus Randall a while back, and he even said that LSU was not strong enough at the quarterback position, and that was a problem. With that said, I'm looking forward to Mettenberger being under center full-time this fall.
re: Did Smith Out-Play Brees?

Even on his best day, Alex Smith could not out play Drew Brees. There's a world of difference between the two.....Smith has a long ways to go before he can play at the same level Brees can.
re: what will CLM have to do to regain your respect?

Quit making excuses and start using his head for something besides a hat rack. He mishandled the Jefferson-Lee situation and was not prepared for the BCS Championship game against Alabama. The SEC Championship game should have been a wake up call for Miles and company, but no......Jefferson played so well it's "fair" to let him start and play the entire game against Alabama, even after the pathetic offensive first half against Georgia.
Say what you will about Saban, but he is and always will be a better coach than Miles. He obviously did his homework on LSU, and it paid off, of course. I don't like the way Saban left LSU, but I do respect his coaching abilities. He's not the "player's coach" Miles is, but the man definitely gets results.
In short, Miles has a long ways to go! Redemption is certainly possible, though.....

re: Bobby Hebert is doing far more damage to himself than CLM

Wouldn't you be upset if your boy was playing for a coach and a team that suffered possibly the worst defeat in a National Title game to date?
I know Bobby was frustrated about his son not getting playing time, but he also spoke for the upset fans when he chimed in on Monday night.
It shouldn't have to take a former NFL QB to see that when one QB is struggling, you replace him with another. He just called Miles out on the carpet, and some people don't like that.
T-Bob really shouldn't even factor into this, though. Bobby just feels the disgust and pain that every other disappointed Tiger fan felt after a 13-0 season.

I've always been a Bobby Hebert, but admire the man even more for telling it like it is Monday night after our embarassment in the Dome in front of a national audience.
Les Miles doesn't walk on water, and he should have been called out for not giving Jarrett Lee or even Zach Mettenberger a shot.
This game Monday night was lost because of a coach who refused to play anyone else but a consistently struggling quarterback. If a quarterback isn't getting the job done, any good coach would have pulled him and tried something else, especially with such a big game on the line. I'll always bleed purple and gold no matter what, but this embarassment of a loss will sting for a long time to come.

He'll be an asset to any NFL team, just like Patrick Peterson. Best wishes in the pros, we'll miss having you!
