re: Jalen Cook is a good player, but

Fair or not, a LOT has been put on his shoulders. McMahon is essentially asking him to create the offense (much like Wade did with Waters). And, honestly, there is no one else LSU can comfortably turn to in that spot. Hannibal and Williams are too inconsistent. But Cook has to play better. Yes, the PPG is there. But everything else isn't...and it has been a bit surprising, and disappointing.

The problem is that Cook isn’t used to running the kind of offense McMahon likes to play. It feels like we change our philosophy for him at times, and it doesn’t work.

He could easily get better at running the offense with time & I actually wouldn’t be digging on him at all / would be more patient with him as a player if not for the fact I sense an attitude issue.

I could be wrong, but that’s my take.
