At first I was with you, now I think the author just did a shitty job of conveying his message.
quote:
There’s little doubt that Hill, senior Alfred Blue and junior Kenny Hilliard will see carries this fall. Magee only has six in his career, and the number might not grow much.
In reality, attrition might be the best avenue for Magee, who rushed for 62 yards on seven carries in the second half the spring game.
“I’m very fortunate to have the opportunity to play this year,” Magee said. “I can’t take nothing away from those guys. ... I’ve got to keep working, taking my time and learn the new playbook.”
Until then, Magee engages in the nuances of pass protection, zone blocking and catching throws out of the backfield — an element that might give him a niche, given his stint at wide receiver.
I guess he means until those players move on, wasn't too obvious to me, either (if that's even the case)

well these guys are hired to write to communicate with an audience and if his message is lost by his readers that is the writers fault

That's reasonable. And as someone else said, if there is this much debate over what he meant with the comments, he's not doing a very good job.
This isn't a novel or a movie where everyone ascribes their own meaning. He's supposed to be reporting on LSU, there should be no ambiguity in his statements.
I'll admit, his past trolling columns definitely colored the way I read the comments.
