Comments of interest from 8/5 scrimmage

“We’re especially worried up front,” coach Ed Orgeron said. “There’s a concern.”
Orgeron did not reveal injury specifics for Clapp, Weathersby and Malone. He qualified them as “regular camp injuries” that are not “going to last a long time.”
“K.J. Malone’s been in and out with some slight injuries. We feel like he’s going to be back Monday,” the coach said. “Will Clapp’s been in and out. (We’re) watching the reps with him. Those guys have been in and out. Young guys got to step up.”
On Teuhema situation...
Does this sound academic? Is so, what was said about O not keeping up to date or pushing a key player at a thin position on top of his grades is of concern
“I wish things would have turned out different, on LSU’s part, my part especially and the player’s part,” he said. “We tried everything we could to keep him here.”
“K’Lavon Chaisson has been dominant,” Orgeron said. "He’s hard to block. He’s all over the place.”
On CEH as surprise of camp...
“We always knew he was a good back, but about three days ago, he had a dominant day, first day in pads. Dominant,” Orgeron said. “He had three runs over 60 yards, way he makes them miss and hits the holes, versatility.”

Since when does a player and his father dictate where, when and if a player plays? This is concerning on several levels...
“The offense loves him. I think he’s going to fit in well. He and his father are happy,” the coach said. “He always has the option to go back to safety if he doesn’t feel that he’s getting what he wants at receiver.”

CEH?
Are you really too lazy to say Clyde Edwards-Helaire?

I don't need this much transparency from Orgeron. Hate to hear that a player and his dad are dictating the terms.

This is the point that is not understood by the crowd that thinks a great offensive coordinator plus a great defensive coordinator equals a great team. There are 500 other things like that going on in the background. Is O managing them well? Can he?
Saban does not lose Maea. He would have had a plan for Maea that was part of his overall process. These are the things that success as an interim head coach does not prove out. Hopefully it is an isolated instance.

You don't know this, can't know this so you're talking out of your arse.

Is Chaisson dominant because he's that good or is it because or O line is weak?
If our O line is in fact a big liability I'm afraid it's going to be very average season. There is only so much a coordinator can do to disguise a weakness.

Hate to break it to you but kids transfer from Bama too.

bullshite statement right there. Saban loses plenty of players. At least our guys didn't trash his fricking locker before he left.

Yes kids do transfer from Bama too but the difference is that Bama can affford it because they basically have no weaknesses due to the amount of insane depth accumulated over the years.

So you're saying that Saban doesn't attempt to keep kids that want to transfer?

LSU has had 10 players leave the program for various reasons. Saban has had 9. He is far from perfect as much as his lovers want him to be.

Like you know.

He's not perfect but his rings speak volumes. I'm not a Saban lover but I won't pretend that he's not the best college coach in the game right now.

We are going to lose more than 3 games in the sec if O is worried about our offensive line that much.
Posted on 8/6/17 at 8:05 am to Brazos
Then don't act like he would not have lost a good player. Ultimately it's up to the player to take care of his class work no matter what kind of plan you have in place

Maybe, just maybe, O is just being brutally honest, because he knows the players need to hear it for motivation. Different coaches say and do different things. Yes I know this is complete opposite of Les jibberish but relax.

Lots of negativity on here. The idea that a player's parent should not be kept in the loop when you change their position to a different side of the ball is assinine, particularly when said 5 star just got here. If this player transferred because the dad wasn't happy you same nervous Nellies would be lambasting Coach O for not keeping the parent happy. Also is not Os job to personally take every player to class. They have an entire support department for that. You guys are ridiculous.

He is being brutally honest. The o line has him really worried. That ain't good Mr sunshine pumper. We may be taking a huge step back from last year on the oline. Only good news is we'll hopefully have an offense this year that won't rely on them as much as a les miles offense.
