Most of us agree that LSU's recent offensive lines have had their struggles. Perhaps the biggest reason for this is a lack of talent in terms of who we have recruited. At this time, only two offensive linemen from the Les Miles era are in the NFL; that speaks volumes. These players are Joseph Barksdale and Trai Turner. Just think Texas AM has put in three in the last couple of years. Alabama has about ten in the league. Thoughts?

How is Jennings even on team? He is terrible. We shouldn't even be in this QB situation.

I've also wondered about the lack of nfl talent on OL side now as far as DL this is that odd year that lsu rarely has as for Jennings he was a very high recruit it's a case much like when perriloux got kicked off team and 2 qbs that weren't ready had to step in gunner Kiel's last second flip changed things a lot he would be starting here as a junior had that not happened but it did and that's life how do you handle adversity.

Go online to LSU Sport.net. Look up the football roster and then click class to sort. Look at all the seniors and juniors on this roster and you will realize they were busts or just were never developed properly. Either way, its a coaching problem. Not all on Miles, but his big thing coming here was his past at OL and that spot has never been a world beater. Neither has TE which he coached in the NFL.
