re: WBB is FUN to watch

Massive amount of effort and energy in their defensive play for the entire game.
"I laughed, I cried, it became a part of all of us".
I think WW is fully engaged but for his supports (many) maybe we can get Chauncey Billups - I hear he has time on his hands.
Why don't you take every stat where WBB is better than MBB, and inquire why, and state how hard it is to watch MBB?

When pigs fly. We don't need a cheater as coach.

To play, and compete, at this level you need to believe you're better than anyone else. Let it all play out and trust the guy looking for the nugget in the pan of gravel.
Not so fast Buffalo Bob. CFB Depth has LSU at #98, second to last. But take heart, we're above Rice - so far.
Grow up. Maybe we can just recruit from Central and Zachary. You want ti win? Play the game as the game is played.
Like 'The Night of the Living Dead' with you guys with your mouths stuck to WW's arse like a Lamprey Eel. Let it go. Dead and buried.
Hoping our staff studies this game on how a complete team excels at every level. Player performance and coaching calls superb.

Called PR baby. CLK and LSU getting all the bad press on this. Damage control.
And there's always the risk that just one more year could result going from the mountain peak to Death Valley - just ask Nuss.
If you're just running a business on profit/loss rational to keep your doors open, them the comments on winners and losers and the need to chop losers is valid. But we're dealing with a state university and national prestige. National titles in loss leader sports shines positively on the university and state beyond the dollars and brings in wealth that are not reflected in a spreadsheet.
quote:

It is a true statement that a degree from Texas is more prestigious than one from LSU in general and in many fields, though not all.



Prestige is subjective, unless you're an industry or educational spokesperson. If important, then I'd expect 5 stars to line up to play for Harvard.

There are NO guarantees that he would be the coach at LSU that he is at IU. There are huge issues over and above coach talent that factor in. Admin support and freedom of action, culture, chemistry with recruiting pool and lightning in a bottle where everything just falls into place. I choose to just watch and enjoy his games and what he has accomplished. But he seems to squeeze every bit of effort and talent from his players. It could all be him or the locker room and this group of players. Success for several years will be the judge.

Well as long as you're willing to never learn or correct your ignorance, then you're set for life.
I don't see anything in IU or OSU that would lead me to think they couldn't handle anything that Georgia or any other team could dish out. Solid, well coached teams with very good players. Makes me think our coaches have been asleep at the wheel.

You can't win consistently like that for more than a few years with all 3 stars, you just can't.


And you just can't beat Ohio State, you just can't.

Our coaches and players need to study the play calling, game decisions and player effort of this game. That's how you do it. IU's defense was 'white on rice' on passes and receivers clutch.
