Dandy Don Calls Out Coach Stud

3rd. Must Fire. His gut is way to big. He is lazy.

Just read his bio on lsusports.net, it says he is "one of the best line coaches in college". That's why we hired him. But seriously he had more experience than blake miller at the time and todd spencer is an option guy. Stud had experience coaching a spread offense n zone blocking that miles n searles couldn't agree on.

You're saying we couldn't find anyone better? I'm not disagreeing with you. I just find it hard to believe that we only had 3 options to choose from.

And didn't he get a raise around the middle of this year? Wasn't it right after a particularly awful offensive line performance? I don't really remember when they announced that he was getting a raise; but I do remember thinking to myself "what the frick..."

Not to be critical, but he needs to push away from the table long enough to work with his linemen.

Seriously, the line play is most critical and anyone with a small knowledge can attest to. Les may have to step in if he wants to negate any criticism of his OL coach. It should be top priority.

When do you think o-line became a problem? We had 1,000 yard rushers in 2007 and 2008.

Our offense has become progressively worse every year since Stud has been here. . .even with Helms, Big Herm, and Black.

Our rushing rank since Stud and Crow got here:

2007- 11th
2008- 43rd
2009- 90th

supposedly last season's blocking schemes were all gary's though

Really? fricking Crowton.

hell, go find a high school coach somewhere, at least those guys work their asses off...apparently Stud hasnt...how can you be that bad out of shape and expect your kids to work for you...

I agree that the o line play must improve, and that we have had trouble with the running game being consistant, but when they put 8 in the box most of the time to stuff the run, because they know you have a couple of young and inexperienced QB's even the best o lines will struggle! Just how it is!!!!!

I wouldn't throw Stud completely under the bus just yet. Now if it is obvious that JJ is mature and confident next year and we still struggle,,,,,then bring out the firing squad!!!!

True that Scott has been writing, since DD had surgery.

I'm ready to throw Coach Stud under the bus.

Last year's line performance is the worst I've ever seen in an LSU uniform. EVER. And I've been watching for the last 40 years.

DL's were in our backfield on pass plays in literally one second. Don't believe me? Go back and look at the tape. It's as though having no one there, at times, would have generated the same result. If you can't slow someone for even a second with pass blocking... either the game is too much for you... or your coach needs to go. One or the other.

There is no excuse for the shameful play of the offensive line in 2009. None.

I get that we lost good players from the interior the previous years, but their replacements are LSU Tigers, not Division 1-AA cannon fodder. We should be doing MUCH better than this.
