Since 2006 LSU has started 7, 6, 4, 5, 5, 4, 6, 5,4 and 3 whites since 2006. They are projected to start 4 in 2016. There QB situation has been laughable for the past 2 seasons and it looks to remain so unless the "riverboat gambler" stops gambling on his terrible black quarterback and opts for Purdue Transfer Danny Etling. This team somehow boasts two supposed NFL recievers as well and I am sure they will both bust at the next level when they are drafted.

The lone bright spot on this team was DT Christian LaCouture who probably could of been a 3rd rounder with a strong senior season. Unfortunatley his tore his ACL and will miss the upcoming year. Hopefully he comes back next year stronger than ever. Center Ethan Pocic is also recognized as one of the top players at the position and may be an early round pick next year.

If Etling becomes the starter at some point during the season I would watch a game to see how he does but with their scattershot AA black quarterback under center this team is an abomination.

Hey Les! Jacob Hester, Craig Steltz and Matt Flynn all say Hello and you're welcome for your only National Championship.

Apparently Todd Mcshay of ESPN thinks that LSU should try Etling as QB, based on the poor play of Brandon Allen. We'll see where this goes.

Mcgay is two years too late regarding Brandon Harris. The LSU QB is the perfect example of the illogical nature of the caste system. I stated it in the write up that was written prior to the season - sure would be nice if BSPN paid me for my analysis :campeon:

Les could have had another NC in 2012, but then, like now, he insisted on playing an incompetent black quarterback instead of white senior QB Jarrett Lee who was 9-0n as a starter that year.

Brandon Harris is simply not capable. Les is placating the monkeys that run the zoo.

This could be an interesting case study. I've sort of somehow "absorbed" the knowledge over this past week that LSU has two "surefire" NFL wide receivers on the team. I could look at the full roster and probably figure out who those guys are, but I sure couldn't tell while watching them put up 7 points against unranked Wisconsin.

So on the one hand, these two particular guys are living very privileged lives, most likely get their "wheels greased" by bag men and boosters every so often, and have all assurances from up on high that their tickets have already been punched for the next level. Plus, as we know from infinity instances of anecdotal evidence, black players tend to support each other in the locker room. At best, they will defer to the coaching staff's decisions; at worst, they will openly petition for the third-string rookie black quarterback to supplant prime Peyton Manning.

On the other hand, these two guys are on track to have almost no highlight tape this year. Regardless of combine times and recruiting stars, that's going to cost them money. Fournette was already going to soak up a lion's share of the touchdowns. Wide receivers of the 'draft hype' variety tend to want the ball. Could there ever be a breaking point where this coal-black team sours on teenage Willie Beamen under center? We will surely never hear it reported, but if half the team quits on the season in spirit, that's what will cost Les Miles his cushy sinecure, not 9-4.

So true, so true. What are those guys up to these days, anyhow? Hopefully making lots of money in a good industry and raising white families?

Well Hester definitely is not in the NFL, because even though he was good enough to be the #1 running back on the national champioship team from the premier college football conference, for some unknown reason he was never good enough to be a starting RB for any NFL team. Darker-hued affletes from vastly inferior college programs were deemed to have more pro potential than him. Not sure if Flynn and Steltz are still in the league.
