    Nah. Herman was gay for Texas and Fisher didn't really want to leave FSU except for stupid money. I'm glad we didn't get Fisher.

    Well when we recruit athletes and not smart players for 8-10 years and let them rule the roust. Then bring someone in that actually enforces the law and requires players to own up for their screw ups. Well there is your answer, that is why we have had players leave in my opinion.

    I'm also interested to see what Orgeron can do recruiting. An upturn in onfield performance would help. Oddly, this game gave me a tiny bit of optimism offensively.

    Some yes. Enough to get manhandled by Syracuse on the offensive line, no. This team is in trouble unless they find their identity quick like.

    But the question remains. Who mentioned the word rebuild before last week.

    I'll have to do a search. I bet no one.

    Point being we were supposed to be able to be as good or better. Because lsu recruits itself and any idiot can win 9 games. Well I think we found the one idiot who can't.

    I’ll admit it I didn’t think we were in rebuild mode but I the we are for sure. Again I think the issue has been attrition but also the poor recruiting for the lines. We should not be going for smaller guys when the gumps are beating us with big bastards every year. That has us behind the eight ball.

    It wasn't discussed but the media blackout at fall camp might have been a clue.

    Then Alleva should have kept offering more and more stupid money to Jimbo.

    Jimbo wasn't worth more money.

    Probably should have kept them happy unless you have a backup plan.
