Facts are facts. That isn’t an indicator of future performance, but it is true Texas has been pretty disappointing over the past decade
Last year Texas had 5 players drafted and LSU had 6 players drafted. Both look to compete in 2023 with multiple 2024 draft picks on their respective rosters. So saying Texas hasn't had as many guys drafted in 2014 like LSU did is not really relevant.

He isn’t trolling by pointing out Texas hasn’t won anything of note since 2005

It's not trolling, sour grapes, or ignorance.
It's factual.
LSU is clearly the better choice if you want to play for championships and get drafted, and it has been for over 20 years.
That's just a fact.

That's the difference between the programs right now.
When LSU went 5-5, they had 7 guys drafted.
When LSU went 6-7, they had 10 guys drafted.
When Texas went 7-3, they had 5 guys drafted.
When Texas went 5-7, they had 0 guys drafted.
