I’m sure Davis and People’s were the main targets. When David wavered, they turned the heat up on People’s and when Davis eventually signed, Kelly took them both because we ABSOLUTELY NEED STABILITY AT DLINE COACHING. It’s been killing us for to long so now we can point to that room and tell any recruit that we have the 2 best Dline coaches in college football. One may leave but we aren’t losing both.
It also tells me that Kelly reviewed the film of this defense and thought that the Dline play and talent hurt us more than the secondary. They couldn’t set the edge, tackle, maintain lanes or sack a QB. This made a patch work secondary look even worst than it really was.

Yep. Kelly knows how the championship teams are made… on the lines of scrimmage. LA is always going to have awesome athletes to take care of the other positions. If we can dominate on the los, we’re Bama.

Kelly knows he and Brad can get elite OL and TE. Bo and Peoples has to give you confidence on the other side.

This could be special.

Yeah, I've been saying that for a while. Everybody dumps on the LSU secondary but being 11th in the SEC in sacks doesn't help a young secondary. I assume Swinson #13 will be back since he was a JR. He was the only LOS player that I trusted to put pressure on the QB. I agree DT needs to still be addressed but LSU needs to display better EDGE rushing next season.
