re: Ty Davis-Price looks great

There were people in the building that saw the derailment happening. And alot of people lost their jobs bc of mismanagement at the top. It's easy to say from the outside looking in that "nobody was hungry to keep it going after 19". Do you realize that we still had some really good talent that could have and did return after 19?

Not sure if it matters what you eat when you’re 18-21 years old and probably burning well over 1500 calories a day.

Hopefully you are not serious…this is ignorant.

I saw a documentary about the nutrition program under O on YouTube and it was like soft serve ice cream machines and pizza buffets. The linemen were eating the same stuff as the cornerbacks.

The nutrition center was fine under O, the primary difference is accountability. I have some knowledge of this from someone who worked there as a student under both regimes. The current staff is a little better and somewhat more focused on individual tailoring of diets and supplements but those are really only marginal differences.

The biggest change from O to Kelly was the coaching staff's attitude toward the nutrition program. Under O, it was go or don't for your daily supplements, whatever. Now the coaches want a list of who shows and who doesn't every week. At least last year they did. The difference for football, in terms of participation, was pretty significant. Interestingly, baseball changed little and always had virtually complete participation plus a lot of really nice guys, Tre Morgan in particular was extremely friendly and courteous to the staff there.

First of all, their bodies burn 1500 calories just to maintain vital function (breathing, heart beat, warmth, etc). They would burn this many calories if they just laid in bed. They probably need to ingest 3000 calories a day to just to meet the basic needs of repair from running, lifting and practicing.

All of that being said, it matters what the 3000 (or more) calories are. It can’t just be protein, or carbs, or fat…..it should be the proper combination of quality calories to avoid unnecessary weight gain (loss) and be conducive to recovery.

In short….it matters what they eat.

The devil is in the details.

Yep. Accountability has been the watchword since Kelly got there. That difference, though it may seem subtle in some respects, seems to permeate everything football does and that was certainly seen at the nutrition center.

Not any weirder than the Orgeron sycophants. People at either extreme are weird.

However, Orgeron did not emphasize or seem to even care if his players took their daily supplements or made use of the nutrition center. And the Ops statement is not outlandish where this specific detail is concerned

This IS Louisiana

They actually gave them macros and meal plans they wanted them on, just there was no follow up and no consequences for not following.
