Was re-watching last year's Ole Miss game last night and as frustrating as the defense was at times, there were some very good signs. Travis Dickson was solid with 5 receptions and I would like to see our TE's take more of a role than in the last few years. Reminded me of Richard Dickson in the 2007 campaign. Clement had some moments but I would like to see us return to a more prominent use of our TE's. Who else we got that could make a difference this year?

You should look forward to DeSean Smith being on campus. Dude is the first receiving threat we've had at tightend in awhile.

This has been a glaring weakness on offense the past few years. LSU tends to use blocking tightness that aren't a threat in the receiving game.

Deangelo Peterson was supposed to be the answer, but he never lived up to the hype..,

Dickson is back, then Gordon is your big run blocker that looked decent catching passes during the spring. Then you have smith who is supposed to be one of the best pass catching tight ends we've ever had. If he can block well and not be in for just passing situations (remember when trindon would get the ball every time he came in the game) I think he could be really dangerous. Don't know enough about stokes just that he's more balanced. It's ashame we lost nic Jacobs I thought he had some serious potential, was the guy that could block and catch well

I'm in full agreement. Using the TE as an offensive weapon and RB screens are what I'm hoping to see more of under Cam.

We don't need TE's, we can finish 11th in the SEC in passing without their help

I'm in total agreement. Been a weakness, or rather, a non-strength for quite a long time. I hope we can make it happen
