re: AU Fans: Was Cam Worth the Trees?

LSU has replaced Mike 6 times already so this analogy doesn't really work for the original question

Exactly.

Unlike oak trees, tigers don't live very long to begin with.

Oak trees can live up to 500 years. Takes a while for them to get to full size.

You can have a new tiger in no time.

And if one of LSU's "rivals" killed Mike and made a martyr out of him that would only make LSU's resolve that much stronger.

Fortunately LSU doesn't have any "rivals" that would do such a thing. The Aggies are unlikely to brand Mike. They'd have to beat us first. Ole Miss has never messed with Mike that I can recall. Tulane did a long time ago but that'll never happen again.
