    Slow down there grasshopper, let's start with an offense that doesn’t self destruct every time you turn the ignition and work our way up from there.

    What could go wrong? It's a Ferrari. Or was when Les got the keys.

    So if players were randomly dispersed, referring to the 2014 class, you'd have about a 1 in 4 shot at landing one of the top 31 receivers in the nation. LSU had 3 of them. 12 times the expected average.

    Throw in the once in a decade running back, another running back that is quite special and an O-line that is more than solid, and the threat you have from your vaunted running attack, aiding in opening up all your weapons in the passing game. It's a recipe for a truly unstoppable offense.

    Why in the hell are we recruiting dual threat QB's when we have a style of offense more suitable for a drop back passer?

    What Id like to see is you strike through passing in the subject and just do offense, and then add everyone else, tackles, guard, center, and tailbacks just so we can all really get sick.

    Les has a Ferrari on offense, and he won't let Ferris drive it.
