And the other point not mentioned enough about the DL last year is they had no coach to speak of. The hired coach Lindsey was on medical leave and LSU DL was coached by an analyst. Hell, Pete Jenkins came in as a consultant and immediately complained that the DL were at least 1 yard off the LOS...a big no-no in Pete's mind. So we don't know how good Guillory would be in the proper alignment. And I liked what I saw in Paris Shand #94 I believe when he played...assuming he will move inside.

You know what is also understated is who is going to rush the passer? LSU's supposed misuse of Perkins was also overstated. You know why Perkins wasn't rushing the passer as much last year. Nooooo, it wasn't House being stupid although he might be. Teams found out that if you block Perkins he is incapable of overwhelming the block. He is not a Dallas Turner type. Swinson #13 I think was the only LOS player I counted on to go after the QB. So before anyone gets obsessed with the DT position, better come up with a pass rusher other than Swinson. 11th is sacks in the SEC is laid at the doorstep of the EDGE and DE types.
