Greg Studrawa and knee jerk reactions

Not taking up for the guy because god knows on this board, if you take up for the guy, you're obviously into BBQ.
Alot of write-ups I've read keeps saying the the OL will be a strength of the team this year.
Read here plenty of times that there's no way Greg Studrawa deserves a spot coaching at LSU because he's just terrible.
Last year, the OL mowed the way for a running game that gained over 2,000 yards rushing in 2010. If this line dominates like expected in 2011, who gets the credit and why? Did the coaches miraculously learn how to coach over a 2 year span?
My point of this thread is pretty much pointing out the obvious in fans overreacting to lack of depth and inexperience on the line, IMO. It proves that a coach takes alot of the burden whenever guys are young and inexperienced and there's just so much you can do. It also shows that it might be worth being patient and letting things play out the way the normally do in college football.
Alright, go. I know what's coming.

the line was average last year. lets see what actually happens this year. I don't think he is a good coach. We have the talent to be good. Sit T-bob on the bench.

I think the lack of identity on offense hurt the O-line more than lack of talent, tho we did have attrition.
Blocking for Crowton's spread is a totally different philosophy than blocking for an I-based attack.
I've criticized Stud in the past, but if we have a true, consistent offensive philosophy this year, I think Stud shows himself to be a good O-line coach.
Especially if Will Blackwell can stay healthy.

I personally think we were spoiled at Center recently and Tbob didn't come in and be as good as expected. He had a big hole to fill. Now we have experience across the line and it showed last year and will improve this year.

LSU fans want our Oline to be as good each year as three teams in their division, AL, AU, and ARK.

By no means do I think stud is a terrible coach but I feel like alot of last years o line success could have something to do with ben Wilkerson being on staff. I feel like he would be very energetic and involved and hands on in the players faces at practice pushing them to succeed like he and his nasty group of o lineman did in 03. And he wasn't too bad of a lineman himself

The line was really bad in 2009, but showed improvement in 2010. I think a lot of our problem, which what was talked about by the coaches right before and after the bowl game was that our offense had no identity and our offensive line didn't know if it was a pulling option team, power running team, passing team, roll out passing team or what.
I think the line will be pretty good this year (although I think Barksdale will be missed more than people realize) and Coach Stud should get some credit for that as well as Miles and Krag if that happens. If not, then they all get the blame.
Also, don't forget that coach Studrawa is a really good recruiter as well.

IMHO, for every year that Big Ben is a GA on the staff, the OL has the chance to improve.
My guess is his credentials of having been an LSU All-American & the school's only Rimington Award winner makes the kids want to listen to what he has to say.

will Josh D and T Bob be grandfathered into more PT than they deserve again? Reading that the line will be a strength in the spring is hardly an accomplishment. Lets see if they can even slow top DTs path to the QB by maybe 0.1 second this year in big games before we crown Stud.

Can I blame the defensive coaches on the other team? I really wanna blame somebody.

If you can't throw the football....ie. 4td passes regular season, then you become pretty predictable. I think the o line did respectfully well considering there was no balance.

the oline did a very nice job last year, especially since we lost an experienced starter on the first play of the season. rantards will never be happy unless we are winning every game by fifty and the opposing coach is on his knees begging for mercy. the stupidity on this board demands complete domination of a conference that has won the last five natchams....geaux figure.
