You need to admit that - You. were. wrong.
That wasn't even the crux of the entire discussion. I used 20 years simply because the numbers were easily at hand, still demonstrated the very low number of LSU players drafted per franchise and including the 15 years with Payton as head coach was right on the league average percentage of LSU players drafted. Was I wrong about using those parameters? Trivial as it is, I guess you can make that argument.

The true discussion was based upon your claiming that Sean Payton has an established aversion to drafting LSU players. Where is the proof of that? Simply your saying it is so doesn't make it true. I simply pointed out that fact and you began questioning my objectivity because I cannot come up with any reason to complain about Sean Payton. Does that make me wrong somehow?

You made a humiliating mistake trying to cite non-applicable data...

You. were. wrong.

Humiliating? LOL! Yeah, sure. Do you actually get humiliated over something as trivial as that? Come now, JP.



But you continue to deflect the whole point ... where is your proof that Payton has an aversion to drafting LSU players?

Payton has drafted two LSU players over his 15 years. Al Woods and Will Clapp. There was only one drafted in the previous five years. That's still close to the league average. Nothing that would approach an aversion.
