I've been here since 2005 and there's never been a time that the stupid threads stopped.

Based on O's comments during the presser, Brennan isn't there yet.

You have to wonder, if he isn't there yet in his 3rd year on campus...he might never get there.

O said in his presser that Stingley had a good return.

Buddy of mine is a Texas fan. When Diaz was the DC there, he would always call him "_iaz". You know, because there's no "D" in his game. :lol:

Said he may have been ok in the SEC, but in a pass happy Big 12 his schemes were a disaster.

Miami was exposed against the pass the last 3 games of last year. We're going to a passing offense this year.

That's about the best I can do.

"Hope is the last thing to die".

The delusions of fans before the first kickoff of the year is a wonderful thing.

I can't wait to read message boards Sunday morning when reality sets in.

And for the record, I would actually like Auburn to beat Clemson for a couple of reasons as an LSU fan (helps our SOS and hurts a potential CFP team). But I saw Steele take LSU from 1st in the SEC in passer QB rating defense to 12th in a single season.

Good luck guys. Don't say we didn't tell you so.

Diarse had 13 catches last year at LSU.

TCU starts 4 WR, and Diarse is in the two-deep, meaning he's somewhere between 5th and 8th on the WR rotation.

Last year TCU's #5 through 8 WRs caught 19, 14, 10, and 11 passes.

Not necessarily a slam dunk he catches a lot more passes at TCU this year than he would have if he had stayed with LSU.

So, you're saying the guy who gave up 70 points to WVU is the solution to this problem?

I've been on the Rant since about 2005 I think, and most of my 2000 or so posts here came by 2007. In fact I had trouble remembering my password to make this post...

Basketball I think is going to be a lot like the Dale Brown era. Recruit lots of talent, mediocre coaching, some decent runs in the tournament on the right year. I'm good with that. LSU isn't a traditional basketball power so I don't see us ending up with a Rizzo, Calipari, etc. of the elite programs.

Baseball - one of the top programs. We got spoiled by Bert...we're still really good though.

Football - can drive you nuts. Les Miles is one of the top coaches in the country, the problem is, he isn't Nick Saban or Urban Meyer. I remember some of the horrific hires in the 80s and 90s so I know what the next coach might be like. I do hope getting Orgeron will help with the Dline...still worried about Steele as DC. I think Cam will fix the QB problem in time...but LSU's QB problems since 2007 are maddening. I'm in the pro-Miles camp even though he drives me nuts sometimes. This is a huge year for Miles...much like 2010 was. I hope they turn it around and then make a run next year for the title.

Thanks for posting, that was a nice highlight video.

OL and LB, as others have stated. Losing a couple of starters, one at each spot this fall camp hasn't helped.

The DE Fields being suspended is a big blow also, especially for their pass rush.
