LSU cornerback Mekhi Garner spoke with reporters on Tuesday and revealed that there was a team-wide players-only meeting this week following the ugly 40-13 loss to Tennessee.

Garner said the first topic was the special team's issues followed by lack of execution in other areas. He added that young and old players, including backup quarterback Garrett Nussmeier, spoke during the meeting which helped the team reset.

Working or not. Its a culture shift you like to see. Last year we had players opting out after losses. Id much rather seethe team get together and show they care.

I agree. It’s nice to see a team mentality in the locker room again.

GoodOlBoy7•43 months

Firing a coach midseason was the dumbest idea for that exact reason. Hard to play for a team that was always going to be turned over

Hope it produces better results than the Daniels/WR meeting.

takemking•43 months

Whether the meeting "works" or not isn't the point. You've got players holding themselves and each other accountable. Did that happen once last year?! No. Will it still take time for things to get better?! Yes. At least they've bought in and are communicating to improve.

Woke?

If you've ever competed at a high level in whatever sport, well, these meetings happen. What it comes down to is each individual is responsible and has to rise above in order to create the greater good for the whole team. No individual is greater than the whole team, but it takes every man to pull together in order to claim the ultimate goal. Geaux Tigers!!

Ed O made a deal with the devil for 2019.
—I’m happy with that deal. When did UF win their last NC?

lsutiger2•43 months

Uhh maybe we should stop doing this?

Reminder that these kids hate losing, probably more than we hate to see lsu lose. We all went to our tailgates in the 4th quarter, but they had to live with gettin whooped. Glad to see their passion

Maybe they just think this is what they’re supposed to do every week.

I’m a fan who is glad Kelley in BR….but he seemed overwhelmed after that start vs Tennessee as much as players do.

ccomeaux•43 months

Good for them. Taking action is better than sulking and pointing fingers. Geaux Tigers !

Tigerwm23•43 months

Did the special teams coach call a meeting

cajunmud•43 months

No one would show up.

Polian is ultimately responsible he is the ST coach. But the mistakes haven’t been with coaching errors.
The dropped punts, kickoffs are on the players not catching the ball.

cajunmud•43 months

But who puts those players in those positions? Who is teaching them how to block and tackle? Who is teaching them how to stay in their lanes etc.?

It falls squarely on this squirrelly coach.

oline5264•43 months

I don’t remember players only meetings under O and Lester. Good for them! Coaches prepare but players have to execute.

mdomingue•43 months

I seem to under Les but it was way back. like maybe 08/09?
