This narrative was started on Tuesday by our local media to cover for their boy O. They did it to save face from the comments Marcus Spears made about how this program is in the hole. They didn't want it to fall squarely on Os shoulder. Basically they are pushing the blame off of O and onto the previous regime. They even went far enough as to blame Chavis for the "lack of defensive depth".

In all likelyhood this was started by Panampski (sp.) given to Culotta and run from there. This is absolutely false and we as LSU fans should not give into it.

But the program is in a deep hole.

Ponamsky is a felon. So I wouldn't be surprised if Little Goerbels started this propaganda.

Orgeron is a typical corrupt south Louisiana politician.

LSU fans are so dumb.

We have one player on the 2nd string OL that isn't a Freshman

We have five eligible DL that are on scholarship playing tonight.

But the "depth problem" is just a media fabrication.

I swear, sometimes I actually question whether some of you guys actually watch football.

The five OL that left under O's watch are called "non-SEC players."

Wrong.

They may never have been "SEC stars" or even "SEC starters," but they were bonafide SEC-caliber backups i.e. "Depth."

So if you want to push the"lack of depth" narrative ...

Place the blame on the guy under whose watch five OL transferred out.

What in the hell is going on inside this program?

Soo you refute facts with a bunch of bs assertions and offer no facts of you're own as support.

I dont care who the hell you blame, its painfully obvious we lack depth at some key positions. Just because I can see the obvious doesnt mean I give O a pass for it.

O has been here two years, so the depth on the Dl should be fixed. All be it some guys have not paned out. The OL line I blame on Miles and his love of trying to convert guards in to LTs and Cs. But also O has been here long enough to fix that even after transfers not addressing depth with JuCo talent was a mistake.

OP, you represent everything that is wrong with:

1. LSU fans.
2. Sports fans in general.
3. Social media.
4. The modern world.

Sorry, but it started during the summer. Everyone on this board knew we were going to be thin on the o-line during the spring and then we lost more. Everyone expected that Shelvin would be able to get in here and add depth at the NT spot and he became ineligible. This is certainly not new.

If you had bothered to even slightly follow LSU Football in the off season, the idea of lack of depth wouldn’t be such a shocking revelation. This problem has been brewing for a few years.
There is no media conspiracy. You may want to wear your tin foil hat to the game. I heard coach o has a brain wash wave generator in the light towers. Yes promanski runs it.

LSU does have depth issues on the line. Between injuries and players leaving, we are thin. That is a true statement and unfortunately, line play is exceptionally important in the SEC.

That's not an incorrect narrative, it's just a fact.

We can have lack of depth and coach O still being a bad hire at the same time you know.

We also should not give into when people predict us going 10-2 every single year
