With only Lamar left to lock down this D line class has been amazing. But with LSU already having massive issues on the O line and then losing our O line commits we really gotta hit some home runs in the portal. Kiffin and staff have some work to do there.

Coach Kiffin may like what he sees out of some of the O-line and knows what he has to do in the portal to fill in. No worries bro

Don’t think you’d expect to have anyone from this class step right in and be great on the Oline anyway. That was always going to be a portal fix

You’re looking at an oline next year of Adams, Curne, Echols, Williams……

Need to be solid at center, but those four Coached up are gonna be a hell of a line

This may seem like a homer take, but Adams, Curne, Ory Williams, Echols and Solomon Thomas are all talented, high ranked recruits. Moore is a decent-good center.

We need better coaching and a much better system. They can’t ALL be as bad as it seemed.

Our oline is all very young freshmen and sophomores. With the right coach watch out.

Curne needs to embrace the fact he is a guard. Stay there and become great.

We actually have an offensive mind now that knows how to scheme at head coach for the first time in decades

I’m not worried about the offense

No doubt about it. He was thrown to the wolves woefully out of position because we had no depth.

I failed to see any talent with Weston Davis personally

It's quite the accomplishment after Mubenga and Chester psoted the worst PFF Grades of any Olinemen at LSU in 2024 to follow that up with a notably lower grade from Davis in 2025.

He allowed 28 pressures in just 386 pass block snaps (over 7% pressure rate) while having the lowest run blocking grade of any Olineman we played this year

For reference Chester in '24 allowed 24 pressures in 592 pass block snaps (4% pressure rate) while having a somewhat notably better run blocking grade than Davis this year around a 50 (Davis was a 43).

We also threw WAY more screens this year than we did last year (20% of pass plays vs. 12% in 2024)

Soloman Thomas as well. I believe he was a 5 start or at least a 4 star. He was hurt all this year. Still inexperienced though. It would have been nice to get Cooley, but inexperienced as well. There's just not a bunch of Will Cambell's running around...

That's what im saying. How do we even know the o line has real issues? The coaching was terrible! It could be serviceable at least if you improve that.

Totally agree with you on that. Doesn’t have the build of a prototype tackle but does have the body of a prototype guard.

Brown is an edge? Good lord that’s a massive edge rusher. Almost like a Marcus Spears type.
