So far this entire thread has provided 0 useful information (except the OP about Hurst giving a kid a glove was kinda nice).
Yep, but it hasn't stopped people from playing the blame game, even though they don't know crap.
The guy may have some legit issue.

Agreed,but he is not a decent pass blocker regardless of issues.I hope things work out well for him,and he returns to team.Regardless,I don't have confidence in his pass blocking.

The pressure these guys have is unexplainable, and the avg fan has no idea.

Performing surgery on a rocket would be a pretty hard job

If those in the know (if there are any) would merely categorize this situation, it would help...
-injury
-personal (non football non-LSU-related) situation
-rift with teammate/coach
-football-related situation

These guys on the O-Line look like wounded war veterans. That is why I get ticked off when I see them playing late in the game against teams like Idaho, Towsen, and Washington. I am pretty sure that wears on them too. They are the bread and butter of our team and Miles' pretty little act of even keeping even the cupcake games close is just wrong.

I am no OL coach,to be clear. But as a DB coach, I can only assume he has a really poor balance issue.
He can come out of his snap going into defenders pretty well, run blocking and such. Balance is not an issue in run blocking as much because you are going forward out of your stance.
Alex struggles in coming out of his stance quickly to an upright ready position.
I had a DB have a similar issue, and he got "took" out of every backpedal. We had to move him to WR.
I don't know if my experience applies here, but it is all I can honestly offer. I don't think Alex is weak, soft, or lacking in talent. He just has an exploitable issue that has never been fixed, nor will it ever be fixed. . .like JJ's throwing motion or Lee's footwork.

Personal issues- not sure if he is playing Saturday but I expect him to stay on the team this season.

shite - I think I figured it out. His hands were probably getting too cold from giving all his gloves away.
