G5 conference masquerading as a Power 5 league.

The top three in the SEC had 26, 12 more than their entire league. Even throwing out Bama's league-leading 10 draftees, LSU and Florida combined for 16, or 2 more than the entire Big 12.

How did it break down the 12 by school?

My guess would be OU was propping up those numbers but I am too lazy to check.

So South Alabama had as many drafted as Texas, TCU, Texas Tech and Baylor. I stand by my previous statement.

South Alabama beat more bowl-bound SEC teams than most Big 12 teams, too.

I still contend that old man at K State is one of the best college coaches ever. He truly is a wizard.

Bama's league-leading 10 draftees




Lsu had more than Bama.... and lsu already had more players than Bama on active NFL rosters, fyi

Fournette to Jaguars
Adams to Jets
White to Bills
Pocic to Seahawks
Riley to Falcons
Beckwith to Buccaneers
Godchaux to Dolphins
Dupre to Packers
Dural to Saints
Neal to Cowboys
Smith to Bears
Thomas to Patriots
Bower to Vikings

And that's probably an incomplete list because I don't follow the draft. LSU alone will probably put more players on NFL rosters this year than the entire Big 12 combined.

How do you lose 4 games with a squad that has 13 players drafted? Was Les that bad? That's impressive to recruit that much talent though.

All those were drafted?

I'm pretty sure at least a couple of those names never even sniffed being drafted. They might have been UDFAs, but the 'U' and 'D' in that acronym specifically denote an undrafted player.

Well this is just an objective and unneeded lie. Trump fanboy I take it?

Absolutely true. LSU has been on an impressive run putting talent in the NFL. However, it looks like bama is finally closing the gap on talent level. Imagine how screwed y'all are now.

he's much worse than that. A TE coach who probably no other top 30 program would want for any purpose was able to use Les's own playbook and achieve far greater results than Les and his best friend could combine to achieve. Just try to fathom how awful Les was. If the team had used no offensive organization ,plan, or plays whatsoever under most coaches with that talent, they would have still achieved more than Les did.

Man does the wheel turn for everyone. Not 5-6 years ago, there were serious -- not just trolling dick-measuring insecurity-laden -- arguments on here about whether Les or Saban was a better coach. Even more recently, there were arguments about how high in the top 10 active college coaches Les ranked. And, to be fair, at the time, there was plenty of quantifiable evidence in Les' favor.

Guy has reached the pinnacle and the nadir of public sentiment in a half-dozen years. At least he's rich.
