Ingram was out 4 weeks with a broke hand and has only played 4 games. He is averaging 5.7 yards per carry. Put that up against the top rushing Leaders

Ingram 5.7 ypc
Murray 5.1 ypc
Foster 5.2 ypc
Bell. 4.9 ypc

You have to get the ball to rack up yards. If Saints give him 15-20 rushes a game he will get 1000+ yards.

are you just randomly naming good LSU players? because what i said is factually true, you were on the verge of the death penalty for buying players, don't make excuses for what you do by pretending everyone else is just as corrupt


I'm trying to use common sense with you, but I'm not sure if that is taught in Louisiana.

You won a recruiting battle against Alabama and Ole Miss for Malachi Dupre. If you think both programs pay players, then how did LSU win a recruiting battle against them? Did Malachi say to both OM and Alabama, "You know, as much as I would love to have an extra $80,000 in my pocket, I'm going to stay home and play for free. I've always liked the Outback Bowl."

Use common sense. What teenager is going to turn down thousands of dollars to live as a poor college student?

If we cheat, and you win recruiting battles against us, then logic tells us that you are offering the same things that we are.

Who cares? Ingram's injury history is part of the reason I wouldn't give him a big contract. He has alreay missed too many games with injuries for a guy who has never carried that ball very often. You are going to now give him a big contract in his mid 20's and expect him to carry the ball more often without getting injured. A four or five contract for Ingram would reach the age where even the best NFL running backs usually start breaking down anyway. Any general manager willing to do that is a moron

Do they teach "common sense"* anywhere? I thought because it was "common sense" it didn't need to be taught. In other words, what the frick are you even talking about.

It's clear that common sense isn't that common with LSU posters. Maybe Louisiana needs to structure their curriculum around teaching common sense because it is a foreign concept.

Perhaps you can explain to me how LSU wins recruiting battles against Alabama if Alabama is offering tens of thousands of dollars and LSU is offering nothing.

Like I am going to take the word of a bammer moron like you as to what Auburn fans believe. As for Alabama paying players under Saban, why would anybody be suspicious? I am sure it is perfectly normal for college age black kids to spend day and night hanging out with random white guys in their 50's and 60's like numerous pictures have shown dozens of Alabama players doing with the old white frick who runs t-town mens wear

What the frick are you even talking about? Do you not understand that you've been hooked? Here's some common sense, you've been hooked, get off the hook and talk about real things that matter.

I'll turn the question towards you as well. Auburn fans were trying to convince me that Kal Bessent and Stephen Roberts were coveted prospects by Alabama, and that Saban was disappointed with the flips because of our needs in the secondary. If Alabama really wanted these players then I am assuming that we offered some extra benefits to keep them.

Kal Bessent was caught with a crap ton of marijuana during the offseason, so I'm going to assume that he doesn't have the character to turn down money to play somewhere for free.

If Auburn isn't offering anything extra, and Alabama is offering lots of cash, then why would these players choose to play somewhere for free?

Are you really this dumb? Alabama has probably won 90 percent of the recruiting battles for kids both schools wanted under Saban, yet we are suppose to believe Auburn is the school cheating according to your moronic fan base

Why wouldn't it be 100%? Do you think 10% of high schoolers will turn down tens of thousands of dollars to play somewhere for free?

If Bama is offering tens of thousands of dollars while nobody else offers anything, it would be reasonable to assume that Bama would never lose a recruiting battle.

What teenager do you know that would turn down tens of thousands of dollars?

chattabama, we've got a boat-load of fools tangled in our net. I'm cutting my line and letting them sink back to the bottom. I suggest you do the same.

This is one of my favorite debates. I have yet to hear a reasonable answer for how Bama loses any recruiting battles if we are offering tons of cash while all the other programs are clean.

What I have seen are a lot of straw man arguments.

The sheer desperation for something, anything to troll Alabama over is just astounding. I mean, really? THIS is the hill you want to die on? NFL Draft smack?
