re: Official Reaction: Chavis is great, A&M got a good one, LSU in serious trouble.

No sugar coating this. I am going to be honest. A&M got a great Defensive Coordinator who will stabilize their defense so the offense can do its thing. A&M is a 10 win team now on average. LSU drops to a 7-8 win team on average - depending on who they hire. There is no doubt about it. LSU is in massive decline at this point. Yesterday was a complete embarrassment. Talking with LSU fans, though, no one is really that upset. Many just don't care anymore. We have seen this over and over and have seen it coming. The game has passed Miles by and there is no point getting upset about it. It was a good 15 year run and now things have to reset. I say all of this because I hate the sunshine pumping or changing reality to argue with other SEC fans. It is what it is and it is obvious. LSU can turn things around next year IF: 1) Hire a great DC 2) Stabilize recruiting 3) Brandon Harris makes the progression to decent starting SEC QB. 4) LSU does not have another mass exodus of juniors. All of that is possible and LSU COULD STILL compete for the West next year. Before yesterday, there was a possibility of LSU returning 20 of 22 starters. So, the ship can be righted for another run. BUT, things look horrible right now. We'll see.
