I mean they did make a good hire post-Saban and so that extended their run of success. I will give them that credit.

Some pre-Saban hires:
Dana X. Bible
Bernie Moore
Paul Dietzel
Charles McClendon
Bill Arnsparger

I just find it funny that modern LSU fans consider the last 10-15 years to be the norm for their program rather than the high water mark it really is.

Wha...?

The year I graduated, 1990, LSU was ranked 12th all-time in win percent (A&M was 37th) and had winning records versus all SEC schools except Alabama and Tennessee (and was 26-14-3 vs A&M).

Of those only Paul won a national title for yall. Heck Bear Bryant coached at A&M and we don't pretend he turned us into a powerhouse.

Is this not the height of Tiger football (since 2000)? Am I not accurate on that point?

That means jack shite. I could quote our winning percentage vs Baylor and TCU all day and yet 90% of the forum would say they have better football programs right now. All time win percents have teams like Yale at the top.

What matters is that in 1990 LSU had ONE fricking recognized national title, and ONE fricking Heisman winner. That was all the national hardware that was in the trophy case, which was the exact same amount of national hardware a 1990 A&M had.

Some people think the 90's is all LSU was pre-Saban, rather than the anomaly it actually was.
