LSU recruited better than almost every school in the country from 2014-2017 SO WHAT WENT WRONG??

In part this. We've recruited solid QB's, but none of the coaches on staff seem to develop QB's. In all honesty a lot of our offensive staff doesn't seem to know how to develop. The NFL loves our offensive skill set players, but they are very raw getting into the NFL because the lack of coaching.

It also comes down to very predictable play calling. At the Wisconsin game up in Green Bay by the 2nd half the fans knew what offensive play was coming based off of personnel or formation.

Summary: LSU (like Miami pre-Rick), has great talent and abysmal coaching.

Correct. Offensively at least. With Miles we went through like 4 OC's in a few years that with a little research you could learn their system. Yet LSU ran the same offense year in and year out. The one constant was Miles.

Miles got gun shy at LSU during the 2008 season. 2007 we had Matt Flynn and Jimbo Fisher's offense was still in place with the veterans. In 2008 we had 21 interceptions; a strong amount were pick sixes. Since then Miles learned he could rely only on smash mouth football and out talenting the SEC. This was the start of Saban's recruiting, and Alabama caught up to us. Since, Auburn has been on the upswing as well. Mullen even started to get MSU rolling.
 
Weak fan base, no stadium, lack of institutional support, no money, no local talent base to milk, wait.... that can’t be it. I think I have it, LA must have become tree huggers and band paper bags at local groceries. Bag men can’t find **** bags any more.

I think he was being sarcastic, and it went right over your head. Those were the perennial negative recruiting knocks against our program for years...

They got stuck trying to play Bo Schembechler ball and got to the point where no matter how much talent they acquired they misused it.

Got way too predictable in everything they did, and as other teams around them started acquiring equal or better talent they couldn’t beat those teams by just lining up in the I, and running them over and playing defense.

All that and Sabag happened.

They're a case study in why you sign a QB every year, and if no one is separating themselves you sign two.

The Mad Hatter rode in on the coattails of Sabag. Was he too stubborn or too dumb to change his offensive philosophy?
 
Actually not dissimilar to what happened to us starting about halfway through the Coker years.

Haven't been fast enough to adapt and they are riding a previous era's coattails. If they were going to move on Miles they shouldn't have waited until the middle of a season, and they **** sure shouldn't have gotten suckered into the Orgeron thing.

As both Coker and Shannon proved to us, what the players want isn't always what is in the long term interest of the program.
