Friendly Texas guy here. You guys may not be interested, but I'll give you my two cents on Gilbert.
- First and probably most important, is his offensive system and practice methods will absolutely hurt the LSU defense unless he's changed. I still can't believe Charlie Strong allowed it, but one of Gilbert's biggest things is to go full speed all practice and make corrections in film sessions the following day. For defense, no stopping during practice and correcting mistakes. This is no different than what he learned from Briles and it kills defense. If he snaps the ball under 20 seconds every play and goes 3 and out, your defense is ran ragged. That offense seriously affected the defense in a very negative way.
- He is absolutely terrified of using the middle of the field. Everything is to the edges and is VERY predictable. At Texas, he basically ran 4-5 plays and it was horrible. He refused to pass to D'Onta Foreman out of the backfield although he was an above average receiver. DB's sat on routes over and over after about 4 games into the season. Very predictable.
- He is stubborn and won't change if what he is doing isn't working.
- If his OL coach comes with him, he is very very good. However, I expected he'll be getting and OC job in the near future.
I think LSU can do much better personally but I'm by no means and expert"
