    From what i've seen LSU is a poorly disciplined team which shows with every personal foul, PI, hold, etc... we gain 15 yards then give it back with false starts, holds, etc. Who's at fault for this? In the end it all comes down to coaching.

    yep, but i dont see amazing talent on O. besides, what is talent? is mett talent because he is big and can throw it hard?

    anyway, teams lose games. and the quarterback makes all the difference. if experienced mauck or flynn were qb of this team it would be the undefeated NC. its not a coincidence.

    i havent seen this (ok, copeland was stupid, but not vs clemson). besides, the NC tends to be more penalized than average teams. i think it correlates with agressiveness.

    IMO, we have outstanding talent with about 3 O'linemen, 2 RB's and 1 WR.

    Furthermore, the fact that I said outstanding is only a representation of what they could be, not what they currently are.

    OBJ shit the bed this year in the WR department. Yea, I said it. He had an average year... Above average in the Punt return however.

    Landry came on strong late... Real late. He will be a star.. Should be the go-to guy next year....

    Blue is our best back IMO, but injury prone. Hill is a monster. Hillard just---I dunno. It is there, but his vision is nowhere near as good as Blue's or Hill's. Ware doesn't get enough touches anymore for him to take his toll on a D.....

    On the D, the extreme talent is Mingo and Sam, but they also under performed a bit, still played above average. Ried is very good, but gets caught mostly making up for the scheme. Before anyone jumps on me, we simply do NOT have the talent to man up like the past 2 years. It is obvious Chavis does not trust the youth. 100% understandable.

    Minter was huge this year, really. Cannot be overstated.

    The freak is not a freak... Waiting on this kid.

    Mills and Collins will be VERY good... Just cannot expect all freshman to be PP7 or TM7 or Mo... People need to understand the freakishness of what we had at CB over the last 4 -5 years.

    Jesus. You made a good post so I piggy backed on it.


    Step away from the ledge.

    I have nothing to add to whats already been said. Besides, critiquing your responses is almost a full-time job.

    You've critiqued nothing other than offer insults.

    All you have ever said is how you feel.

    We get it, you do not like Miles. Say it more. Go ahead, click your heals together three times.

    "I wish Miles gone!", "I wish Miles gone!", "I wish Miles gone!".

    See you in 7 years.

    I dont recall me posting that I didnt like him. Care to furnish? In fact, I love his overall philosophy. What I hate is the stubburn resistance to adjust, adapt, and let go of the offense. Pumpers like yourself are comfortable blaming everything but the headcoach.

    I hate explaining the obvious, but you are a special case. Doesnt matter, he has an extension now and nothing will change.

    My soul is prepared, how's yours?
