NOTES: Miles again praised freshman wide receiver D.J. Chark of Alexandria Senior High on the SEC spring teleconference as he did throughout spring drills. "D.J. was very strong all spring," he said. … Miles also said offensive lineman K.J. Malone of Cedar Creek High in Ruston had "a big spring."

Eat shite stargazers.

What makes you people feel so entitled to know everything that goes on in practice? It really is none of our damned business what happens in practice. If Miles doesn't want to tell us anything, then that is his call. If you want to see the results, show up when McNeese comes to town in September.

PUTZ ALERT





and I thought that I was a dick but that's all you hoss

These sanctions on early enrollees could be way worse that most people realize. Go and take a look at the early enrollees that we will lose out on and then see which ones will end up at bama because of this.

The SEC REC would never risk doing something this bold without the payoff being worth the bad PR. I'll bet that some of our biggest targets will be early enrollees over the next two years.

Don't get me started. It's not like the guy didn't see how bad of a choice leaving early was for our two best DTs just last year AND how much of a void was felt by the entire team when the DL should have been a strength.


Maybe Chavis just got tired of developing stars and not reaping any of the benefits?

Sometimes I think that Les gets all caught up with these athletic manimals who look awesome in practice but get exposed as sub-par passers with serious confidence issues in real games.

Mett, for instance, had the most confidence that I've ever seen at the NCAA level which was a perfect fit with the most trustworthy WR duo in the nation that year. Imagine how badly those two WRs would have been underutilized with a guy like JJ at QB for their Jr seasons.

Even with great recs that year Mett delivered many great passes that got dropped but he constantly delivered those balls and the catches came. You need that level of play from the starting QBs of top SEC teams like LSU. Even though I love Miles as LSUs coach, he needs to field top passers at that position or the offense will never reach its potential. LSU already has one of the top 5 backfields in the nation to rush the ball, the QB OBVIOUSLY needs to be able to maximize the production of one of the top WR groups in the nation.

Touchy?

Again, before blaming the OC, I would blame the two DTs who couldn't wait to leave LSU even though neither of them was ready and the team needed them very badly. FYI, the defense would have had much better 4th stamina with their two senior DT starters in the rotation than they would without them. Also, our MLBs don't have to deal with 20 untouched RBs per game at full speed up the middle when our two best DT are on the field.

Thats just how I see it. Players leaving early has never bothered me until this year. The team felt the losses of OBjr, Landry and Hill very much but it was their times to go and I will always be fans of theirs. Those two DTs are a different story though. I also feel the same way about Hunter and could care less if he ever plays a snap on Sundays.

I definitely mentioned that the play calling pissed me off as well.

Lets see... Cam had to replace four phenomenal NCAA play makers who are currently...

2 current NFL star WRs as rookies
A Starting NFL RB as a rookie
A starting NFL QB as a rookie

And even with all of the youth on offense most of the losses were very close with the defense breaking down at the end. I still think that 3 or 4 of our losses would have gone our way if those two DTs wouldn't have prematurely bolted for the NFL early with crappy draft grades.

I admit to getting frustrated with the same old mundane offensive play calls but nobody expected a team with more teenage starters than not to handle LSUs schedule much better than they did.

Dick what round did Ego go in? He was here four years. I understand your comment on Johnson more..three years and not drafted.

I wrote that drunk and really don't feel as strongly as that post looked.

I definitely think that Les should put a lot of effort into keeping guys who aren't first or second round talent in Purp and Gold. The only way that I can see it really happening is if the players can get some kind of insurance against career ending injuries. As long as a player can have his entire career ruined by some Auburn prick player for no reason other than the fact that Auburn or Miss st players are wretched then I can't blame the guys for leaving.

If some kind of insurance can be made available through LSU or privately then I have to think that a player pretty much owes it to the team to make sure that he wont leave the team in a huge bind at his position without him being a top pick. Being a top pick trumps everything else though.

I guess that it just drives me a little batty watching those two losses and knowing that they would have turned out very different with Freak on the DL. Props to the staff for developing those youngsters as quickly as they have though. No other team could have survived those early departures and only have two losses with a team that might run the table from here on out even though they are facing Bama next week.

Those are interesting angles MTB, From our point of view, those faggies are wannabe pre Madonnas. Heck, if that story about Speedy and no urine tests is true then Sumlin has it coming.

I couldn't agree more about having to earn it. The aggie fans actually started talking down at us early in the season like they actually did earn something! Thank goodness that the Chief knows how to handle punks or their egos would have been ridiculous.

Still though, A+M was a huge addition to the West and they can still be a huge thorn in LSU's side in recruiting at a time when the Tigers can't afford any missteps. I have never been too worried about losing to them on the field but Texas is a very important state for recruiting and we need it to fill in La's weak spots if we are going to keep up with the Jones'.

As for Florida, I still haven't gotten my fill of their misery. After the Spurrier years I wouldn't mind seeing them dwell at the bottom of the SEC East for another decade. Beating them in the Swamp is always a season highlight no matter what their final win/loss record looks like.

I will give them this though, they looked pretty relieved to finally beat Geo.
