Kelly channeling his inner Les:
quote:

They know you're running it, everybody knows you're running it, and you still run it. We're going into this season with that mindset of there's going to be times that you know we're running the ball and we have to impose our will on you. We gotta be a little bit hard-headed sometimes and impose our will from that perspective.

I mean, that's great and all, but can the guys up front be mean and nasty? Can they effectively run block? Because BK said the exact same shite last year when he had 2 of the best LSU O-linemen in the last 15 years and we were dead last in the SEC in rushing with 1,513. CEH had 1,400 by himself in 2019.

Brings back memories last year inside the 5-7 yard line . We certainly didn’t impose any will on anybody !

I don’t get the problem with what he’s saying. Our run game sucked last year, and there are times that you NEED to run the ball. When it’s first and goal at the 2, you should be able to run the ball in on 4 tries. We haven’t been able to do that without a read option over the past several years.

People on here just hate him, so even the logical things he says pisses them off.. It’s what everyone wants and think, but because BK said it.. it’s a clown opinion

Yep if Kirby Smart says that same exact thing word for word then it would have been gospel to most on here

He better not try to "Impose his Will" on the road against Clemson and force the run in the opening game. (Particularly so with that Offensive Line that can't run block)

There's too many WR, RB and TE options to not use them. Throw it every down, move the ball and score points.

Try the "Establish the running Game" BS against Southeastern the next week...............

Kelly says shite just to say it and most of the time what’s he’s saying doesn’t happen so it’s easy to shrug your shoulders and say don’t tell me show me.

Exactly. There’s “imposing will” and then there’s stubbornness

There is no problem with what he’s saying. What he’s saying is true. And every coach in the country would say something similar. But him saying that doesn’t really mean anything

Well. That is kind of a different situation given that Kirby has won a championship.
He has more credibility.

That mentality is how we lost to a bad USC team last year
