Kelly Blaming Players is ridiculous... He created this situation by retaining Sloan.

Bryce Underwood flipped to Michigan on November 21, 2024. Some posters said earlier this season "It was too late in the game to go get a new OC." But November 2024 is not too late to make a decision

The word on within circles was that Sloan was a QB guru and we needed to keep him in order to ensure we got a "generational" talent in Bryce Underwood.

Guess who has started to look pretty good? Yea... Bryce Underwood... And he is doing it at Michigan with some meh talent around him. He's a freshman and will look like a freshman at times, but he is going to end up being very good.


But here we are holding on to an OC who cannot scheme a run game to save his life, continues to run RPO and read option with a QB that every team in the nation recognizes will never actually keep the ball and run it himself.

I feel for Nuss. It must really suck to have a coach who is trying to fit force you into a gameplan that does not at all match your skills.

Lets revisit Saturday.

1st drive: We have to settle for a FG after a stalled drive when Nuss was looking pretty good up until our line allowed a sack.

2nd Drive: TD, Nuss was on fire

3rd Drive: Vandy forces us to kick a 52 yarder... Something I've never been confident in Ramos being able to do consistently. At this point I was questioning why we didnt punt instead of giving Vandy a short field when we had shown no ability to stop them.... HORRIBLE COACHING

Hey but guess what, defense came up with a stop on 4th down to give us back a short field with a bit under 2 minutes left to go. We can milk the clock and score and go into half down a score or leading.... But instead we have zero clock management, kick a field goal and give Vandy plenty of time to drive the field and get those points back... HORRIBLE COACHING

In the second half we get all the way to the 2 yard line and instead of trusting the players he had on the field and not give vandy a chance to sub, we wait about 25 seconds, waste a timeout, change personnel and end up having to settle for about a 20 yard field goal. HORRIBLE COACHING.

Then the defense finally gets back to back stops and what happens?

We immediately lose yards and attempt to run from distances comparable to how far our fans had to travel to get to Nashville.... Then we punt... twice.... down by 1 score late in the game in a game where we have mustered up 3 stops all game against a team that looks to have perfected the grind the clock....


I was a Kelly defender.. I felt like he was the right person for the job at the time of O being fired... But his inability to get an offense and a defense working at the same time has killed any excitement I have for LSU football.

The defense was not great on saturday but they gave us 3 stops and that should have been enough.... we would have all killed for 3 stops when we had Jayden behind center.

I now question why we even fired Orgeron. I think he would have eventually found good coordinators again and the NIL world makes a quick flip extremely easy if you have good coaches.


Sloan has to go.... and Kelly needs to feel the heat.
