2011 Phil Steele Pre-Season All-SBC

_ Agree with this to a point. The line play is not at a SBC average. It is well below average. Was it lack of talent, injuries, or coaching? I don't know, but we will not make noise in this conference until those positions are shored up. _

If we were evaluating whether we have the top tier talent in the SBC, it would be an easy discussion. We are talking about the median in the SBC. We have that right now. We should easily have 6 to 9 players on his all conference team.

As for what will improve this program... talent, coaching, limited injury... it is all of the above and more... but I think intense, focused coaching is going to have the greatest initial impact.

If the returning talent manages to win better than .500 of our conference games next year... I'd like Phil Steele to explain it. I'm going to leap ahead. The Cajuns are going to win better than .500 of our conference games next year. Is Phil Steele going to then select, "overnight", 7 to 10 more UL players he left off of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd all SBC teams from the prior year? Are they going to become "more talented" in the span of a year while the rest of the conference individual talent lowers?

This is about as interesting to me as stat gazing. I also don't really care if a bunch of fans that like to pace their excitement... for whatever reason... don't want to believe Hud is going to crank this football program up in his first year... even with the returning talent... I don't much care. I go by my gut feel all of the time... and I trust it. Hud will put a much improved overall football product on the field... beginning this coming year.

_ He's also taking votes for the best college tight end, and I'm sorry to say Ladarius Green is sorely lagging behind. Attached below is the link.

So's everyone else. The TE at Notre Dam has 59% of the vote.

Pewee and the Georgia TE both are next with 7.9%.
