Newspaper said Moorehead brought in three top 25 recruiting classes in a row. Had never been done at State, apparently meaning that CDM had never done it. Explains why I had low expectations for. Dan in recruiting and not expecting top 5 classes here.
So moorehead upgraded the talent but was trending towards worse results? Interesting. I wonder what the difference was?

They expected him to fix their horrible offense immediately when he was handed a QB room full of slot receivers/h backs stolen from Davidson?

Dumb mofos.

Don't know about that, but it is interesting that CDM never had three top 25 classes in a row.
P. S. "trending"?? What would it take to convince you that the results were, indeed, worse?

Numbers don’t agree with your assessment. And the offense he inherited worked well enough. Not elite but better than it is now. Odd, right? You of all people said he was an upgrade. Funny, the locals didn’t feel that way. Huh?

We preach patience for CDM, right? Allowing for the possibility that Moorehead needed more time to continue wrecking the ship.

Youth versus experience. After reading the Football Scoop piece on Judge, I came away with the distinct feeling that his star is rising and he’s likely to get the nod over Grantham.

The story even alluded to conflict between Belichick and McDaniels over who gets him after McDaniels departs, which at this point could be for Cleveland.

Grantham’s one of those crusty old dudes that would likely survive a nuclear strike on BHG if it happened. It’ll probably take a hit squad to get rid of him.

Bayou...Your thoughts on Louisiana and LSU?

I've got some family and quite a few friends over in Louisiana, and know the state very well. I have a love/hate relationship with the place. The fishing and hunting are both world class, the food is amazing, the people are genuinely excellent, and the fact they sell liquor in gas stations (and basically everywhere else you look - I've literally bought a bottle of Weller 12 for MSRP at a truck stop near Shreveport), are all great things.

The government is corrupt as hell, the roads and overall infrastructure are some of the worst this side of Syria, and the fact that I can't stand to be in NOLA for longer than 48 hours due to the stench, makes me sometimes wish it never existed.

As for LSU, I think they will soundly beat Clemson. They've caught lightning in a bottle this year, and have had one helluva season. My prediction on the game: I expect it to be close for about a quarter and a half, but then I think LSU will run away with it.
