re: I tried to tell LSU fans last January,

quote:

Our offensive line is great. Our running backs are top 3 SEC. Our receiving core is STILL top 3 SEC. Our TE is said to be exceptional. Our QB is a veteran with extensive knowledge of the system and he has a damn strong arm and workhorse RBs to take some pressure off the passing game.

Our defensive line is very young now but I absolutely expect those guys to dominate. We have two freshmen who are 1st round talents at DT. Linebackers are always good and this year will be no exception. DBU.

Special teams can be exceptional with returning talent.

So all trolls beware two first round departures this week will not stop this train.... The losses would hurt any program sure but LSU has depth and talent at WR and DL and we will withstand these early departures.

Now with that said we can’t afford another major loss at WR or DL but I certainly understand if more players want to opt out to protect themselves and prepare for the future
