Did you hit submit a bit early, cubey? What intrigues you about it? What is his reasoning for what?

Would love to know the thought process behind a goal line fade to nic Anderson at the end of the game when I don’t recall him being targeted or really involved all game up to that point

His reasoning - there is none. Just a perfect example of why all offensive staff members should be gone. Not a one of them were any good.

I think Wilson and Hankton were trying to sabotage this team.

Agree… think it was one of a jealousy thing.. you have to question the punt late and the 1st down play called from the 6 inch line lining up in shotgun formation throwing a fade…very very questionable calls.. the bowl game meant nothing but another win or lost… they had nothing to lose… also the effort on the onside kick was atrocious…the object is to cover the ball not knock it down to the ground.. on to next year.. this football season sucked…

Its been said that NIL investments plays a major factor in the decisions. I think Hankton was doing what he was told to do. It was too obvious.

2023 and 2024 ...you didnt see much rotation.

2023: Nabers, BT, and Lacy rarely came off the field.
2024: Lacy, Anderson, Daniels took most of the reps.

2025: They forced Brown and Anderson on the field because of NIL investments into those guys. The room was already crowded with experienced guys AA, Zavion, Hilton, and Parker. Hankton had no choice imo. Thats 6 guys with 4 playing in their last year. Im willing to bet Nic got the biggest NIL package because of the hype he received.

Out of those six guys, four came from the portal. LSU needs to get back to developing their HS recruits at WR. Stop plugging in portal guys and burying your HS guys on the depth chart. They will never develop and continue to hit the portal after 2 seasons of sitting on the bench.

1st & Goal from the half yard line. Time was of the essence, a failed qb sneak costs you 20+ seconds and yardage. Throwing 2 fades on first & second down costs about 8 seconds and no negative yards. Then you sneak on 3rd if needed.

Calling a run play out of the shotgun on 2nd and inches. Then calling a timeout was terrible.

That’s the Hank and Frank duo calling their best plays for dummies!
Neither one is impressive for on field coaching, player development or in game changes.
2 dudes who used to be able to recruit that’s it plain and simply.
