Delusional Optimism

If you listened to the podcast, you probably wondered to yourself, "Self... I wonder what is Poseur smoking? Because no one can be that high on the Tigers right now."
Well, I am. At the risk of sounding like a homer and also angering the gods of weaux-fing, I truly believe LSU is going to have a win total in the double digits, contend for the West title, and finish in the top ten. Now, seasons aren't written in stone, and of course this team could have another "mediocre" nine win campaign, but I'm feeling strangely optimistic this season. Maybe it's just residual wedding bliss, or maybe I'm on to something. My reasoning after the jump...

Not to bring the mood down on Gamedaymas, but pause to remember today.
For today is the last game of baseball at Rosenblatt Stadium

2 Days...
REMINDER: Pick's are due BEFORE KICKOFF TONIGHT for the ATVS - Geaux Show Pick'em challenge. There are 48 of you so far.
This will be short, but too much has happened in the last 24 hours to wait on it.
First some big recruiting news (all credit to the awesome twitter feed of @Sheadixon.) 2011 class DT Anthony "Freak" Johnson will graduate HS early and will start classes in the spring. And 2012 Top-Flight 5-star WR prospect Avery Johnson (Patrick Peterson's younger brother) has verbally committed to LSU.
DT Marvin Austin's suspension we knew about, but either this goes deeper than anyone imagined, or ESPN's Joe Schad has gone off his meds (or had his twitter account hacked) as he reports that up to SIXTEEN UNC PLAYERS may be held out of saturday's game in fear of a retroactive DQ, including, unexpectedly, all of their known options at RB. Joe Schad has proven to be somewhat reliable, but I'm holding onto my can of Morton's until kickoff.
From the video above, DT Josh Downs is back at practice and will be available for Saturday.
I know they ended up better than what we thought, but I'm still glad we aren't on Nike's hit list this year.
Who would've thought BYU would be the first team owned by ESPN? (between the TV deal, orchestrating the ND series, and pledging to help them into bowls that they own and operate, what exactly does the BYU AD have left to do?)
The Big Ten will split into divisions and OhiAAAUUUUGGHH! GERRY DINARDO! RUN!

Better Know a Freshman: Justin Maclin - Mr. Forgotten

I'm not the type to get into the finger-pointing blame-game with recruiting services and their "biases." Far as I see it, of course they are biased, but that typically works in LSU's favor in terms of recruiting rankings. Regardless, great players slip through the cracks anyways, and yesterday's 2-star is tomorrow's Top 10 pick... as I've said before, it's the nature of the game.
However, I spent most of last recruiting season absolutely puzzled at Justin Maclin's ranking. Prior to the season, Maclin was among Rivals top players to watch and even considered a potential 5-star. He goes to a few camps during the summer, including the USC Rising Stars camp and comes out with this review from Jeremy Crabtree: "[Maclin] showed great pursuit of the football and good strength to fight off blockers." Mind you, this is one of the elite camps of the year against top flight competition. Yet, Maclin never appeared in the top 100 (if memory serves) and even finished outside of the Rivals 250. All this for a guy who has the size, speed and athleticism people drool over, as well as a healthy set of offers (Florida, Bama, USC, Tennessee, UNC). How could a player like this be forgotten?

Well he certainly passes the eyeball taste. Amirightoramiright, ladies?
"We are relatively healthy as a team. Deangelo Peterson has an injury that is short-term in nature."
From the mid-day teleconference
Hopefully we'll get more details in the after practice press conference.
Marvin Austin Suspended
"This decision is not a result of the ongoing NCAA review," Davis said in a statement released by the school. "Marvin has violated team rules and has neglected his responsibilities to the team."
Butch Davis then proceeded to say that smoking does not cause cancer, candy bars cure obsesity, and Dane Cook is funny.
One Ric Flair tribute deserves another.
We can give them credit for the Nature Boy, or for NASCAR. I think we all know which one we're more thankful for.
