Brian Kelly Talks About Getting Jack Bech More Involved

by Staff Reporter

September 21, 202262 Comments

SCOTT CLAUSE/USA TODAY Network / USA TODAY NETWORK

During the SEC Coaches Teleconference on Wednesday, Brian Kelly was asked about wide receiver Jack Bech and who they plan to get him more involved in the passing game. Per SDS:

quote:
“I think, quite frankly, as coaches and it starts with me, we’ve gotta get him more involved. You’re going to see that that’s going to take place this weekend,” Kelly said. … “We’ve got really good players at that position and we have to do a better job of getting really good players on the field. There has to be intentional rotation and competition in practice. … Jack’s doing everything he’s been asked of. There shouldn’t be any narrative out there that he hasn’t or he’s injured. We have to do a better job as a coaching staff.”

Bech has two receptions for 22 yards and one touchdown through three games so far.

This is a travesty 2/22 smh He was one of our most sure-handed receivers last season.

Hurricane Mike•19 months

You're not gonna catch passes when the QB can't sit in the pocket and read a defense

tirebiter•19 months

The lack of receptions by KB and JB is a byproduct of the QB position.

Big EZ Tiger•19 months

He'll get more involved eventually because he is a great player, but I think they have been attempting a few too many passes to Taylor that could be attempts thrown to WRs. For the record, I think Taylor will be a great player, but we have more dynamic guys who we can throw to like Bech, etc., at the moment while Taylor is learning his position.

CBK continues to impress with his ability to address areas of improvement for the players and with coaching scheme.

If Jayden Daniels runs this game I am going to lose my $hit.

PureBlood•19 months

I'll say this... coaching staff needs to call NO delayed QB runs this game and let us see just how much of this is on playcall vs him getting happy feet. Glad to have him either way

Your damn right the coaching staff has to do a better job. BK is saying the right things about Bech and Special teams, let's see if he implements them correctly

texastigerr•19 months

Bech should be one of the most active receivers in this group. He is a Sunday talent and a nightmare match up.

PureBlood•19 months

I'd swap Boutte out for him. Bech wont draw a double team and will make the most of it.

BlackAngus•19 months

Drawing a double team should help everyone else out. Why take 7 off the field

out of curiosity, what’s his 40 time?

Cycledude•19 months

I think he will get two passes this weekend and the coaches and fans will forget about it.

You're joking right?

TygerDurden•19 months

You would think given Bech’s hands and athleticism he would be an excellent choice to return punts

the LSUSaint•19 months

He was unreal as a high school senior. No doubt he would excell

mule74•19 months

There are a lot of WRs on this team and a pretty good young TE. It’s hard for everyone to eat.

ExpoTiger•19 months

That’s not really the issue. They are all starving for the ball

poochie•19 months

Who are you guys taking out for bech? Who’s not running routes well? Who’s dropping balls?

ImBatman•19 months

Can't eat if the qb can't get them the ball.

YardEngr11•19 months

Sad he got lost in the shuffle . . . .

MaxxPain2•19 months

Quit forcing the ball to Taylor and give it to Bech. He's better..period.

What I am seeing is LSU is doing alot of no huddle without substitutions. To keep the 11 personnel they want Taylor in as the TE rather than going 4 WR with Bech as the Y. They are basically valuing Taylor's presence in the run game more than Bech's in the passing game.

Genestealer55•19 months

Taylor is a TE and Bech is not. If you watch Taylor closely, you’ll notice he’s a damned good blocker. Bech cant do what he does.

ForeverEllisHugh•19 months

Bech is absolutely a capable run blocker. If they really want to focus on running though, put in Mashburn.

The root problem for all of the receivers is still JD taking off and apparently being terrified to throw a pick.

DeafVallyBatnR•19 months

Brian Kelly has somebody reading the Rant. Each time the board starts asking questions. Kelly talks about it.

Genestealer55•19 months

He was literally asked a question about Bech…he didn’t bring the subject up on his own

Neto•19 months

In that case..coach why not start the game in the hurry up (or quicker pace) where we have excelled instead of going through 2 miserable quarters of straight drop backs?

ExpoTiger•19 months

Holy shite he’s been on the rant!

Lsuhoohoo•19 months

If Daniels isn't going to pull the trigger down field, then Bech needs to be involved in what Daniels is doing. The short quick dumpoff stuff is where Bech thrived last year. Those routes to the flats that Mason Taylor has been getting 5 yards on is whwre Bech can pick uo 1st downs.

Timeoday•19 months

I have to believe a lot of our offense has not been used thus far. We beat MSU 31 - 2 from just before half on.

Kelly has outstanding management skills and the best player skill set he has ever had as a coach.

Ya Just Gotta Believe!!

eugene1928LSU•19 months

Absolutely, this kid will be an all American and a player in the NFL.

BigTiger1212•19 months

Neither one of those things will happen

Madking•19 months

They’ll have to get creative on finding ways to get him the ball on the perimeter because JD will not find him in the middle of the field. Just go look at where passes are being completed and at what % for his entire career, you’ll see the middle of the field is practically non existent for this QB.

R11•19 months

You and Damone just should come out of the closet with y’all’s narrative.
Just say what you mean pussy.

Prob butthurt about walker Howard and will Campbell being tigers.

Geaux Guy•19 months

All of the WRs are lacking opportunity. JD has some valuable skill sets but throwing to WRs while in route is not one of them.

nol1wph•19 months

I just hope JD continues to make progress. Our receivers are SO underutilized it makes me sick. So much talent. So few catches and receiving yards. This offense is good enough for the next two weeks, but will need to be a whole lot better after that.

lsudave1•19 months

I really believe that as the season goes on and the offensive line continues to get better playing together receivers like Bech and Boutte will get more involved because Daniels will be able to relax more and find them downfield

arealtiger67•19 months

It really is a function of the O line performing better and I believe they will. We may have all forgotten the significance of our 2019 O line. Not exactly All-Pro individuals but an excellent unit (reference Joe Moore award)! BK is moving us in the right direction.

Play_Neck•19 months

amen

Damone•19 months

Weird how other WRs manage to get theirs but somehow he needs help getting involved in the game.

OU812ME2•19 months

They're not getting 'theirs'. The only people getting shots are 8 and Taylor. But if Bech was getting the check downs instead of Taylor, we would have many more first down.
