Kelly - I think the defensive tackle position will be the area we move aggressively

The Advocate - Once the transfer portal opens and the stretch run for the 2024 recruiting class begins, LSU has a couple positions to address. One of them, coach Brian Kelly said Monday is defensive tackle.
“That position in itself, the defensive line, interior help, is where we are looking to help our football team, “ he said Monday. “We think we’re in pretty good position at the edge of our defense. We need to get bigger. I think the defensive tackle position will probably be the area that you’ll see us move aggressively.”
TTT- Would like to see Kelly move aggressively on a defensive coordinator and a linebackers coach as well.

Serious question man, why do you feel the need to make a post every single time an inkling of a thought pops into your head?

If the new coach runs a 3-4 defense, we need some big bodies to run the nose.
320-340 lbs

Agreed. We should be good at EDGE with Swinson and Womack/ Howard. Jones and Shand will play SDE I think. LB might be good as is with Weeks/ Penn/ Perkins next year, along with Brathwaite and a really strong Freshman class.
Corner may also be good with Toviano/ Zy along with Stamps, Welch, JK Johnson, Hughes, and 3 Freshman.
I’m not sure about Safety. Burns will likely be back and Yates has done pretty well. We’ll also have Kyle Jackson, Sage, and Jordan Allen.
DT next year should include: Maason, Guillory, Hill, West, Lee, Langston, along with 1-2 Freshman. I think we need to add Shone Washington along with 1-2 quality guys to compete for a starting role here.

Yes please. Top two la. Dts got paid more by A&M . LSU needs to get at least one of these guys back.

I think he meant "Defensive tackling".

Don’t disagree but secondary is a pretty scary situation right now. I think that might be the highest priority based on what I’ve seen on the field unless I’m misreading the context.
What is really concerning is we have guys behind Guillory and Smith but they must really be a long way from playing if he’s concerned about their size. Man our defensive talent really went into the shitter.

But the rant said Kelly is satisfied with the defense and here he is saying otherwise in the only way he can say it publicly
Maybe he read the rant ?

So you don't think Coach Penn is doing a great job as LBer coach?

My man, you start way too many threads. Give it a rest and enjoy the holiday season

Get us some speed on defense, Coach! thanks.

We need DL, linebackers and DB pretty much everything but the edge.

QB and D-line are 1a and 1b for building a team.
Deficient in either of those and you'll suck.
(of note, suck IMO means 8-4 or less)

Need a proven DL coach too.

So reading between the lines, sounds like he knows Wingo and Smith are gone.

SPEED! SPEED! SPEED! This is the slowest D that I can remember. Even
Palinis D could run they were just out of position all the time. These guys are usually trailing the play and can’t run anyone down.

We need to get bigger.
Mason Smith is big. Usually lines up on the center or between guard and tackle. Seems slow.
