C'mon, Pea! You're too hard on yourself! You're not a USC fan....So that rules you out as being a "complete dumbass"...
This may well be true, but let's call a spade a spade here. If you have sick talent on the defensive side of the ball, talent that was recruited to run and participate in a certain type of defensive scheme, why do you forcibly make said talent operate within a radically different scheme? If LSU had, say, 6-5 or 7-4 kinda talent, then by all means experiment and tweak to your heart's content regarding getting your guys "fully immersed and comfortable in it." That's like someone leading me into a bedroom in which Tara Reid is lying naked on the bed, ready and waiting...and I decide at that point to do something other than "lay down the law" with her, so to speak. At that particular point in time, I wouldn't want someone intervening and imposing celibacy on me because, well, getting "fully immersed and comfortable" with the system is, in their mind, better for me in the long run.
Another good example. If you had a horse and Tejas Tiger was around, the poor MFing horse would be dead from a compleat beat down......... :hihi: Damn Tejas were you this upset with Saban?
Tara's just a tease anyways. Did my post make any sense at all? I was three sheets to the wind when I typed it up last night.
