So you admit that other players on the defense (Allen, Hunter and Rasco) did not perform up to your lofty standards in 2013. You also, in your latest post, admit that you often got headaches from watching Tre White in coverage. Wow, 36 posts since you came on this board this month, and 20 of them you have used to bash Welter and a few other players, but mostly Welter. The second leading tackler on the team, the guy is a leader on the team on the Unity Council, and who by all accounts, including by Les and Chief, is their defensive leader and someone they are counting on heavily in the upcoming season. Both on the field and in mentoring the younger players, teaching the younger linebackers how the position needs to be played. We have no problem discussing LSU football here, but you were never interested in that. You just come on here to anonymously bash LSU players. You no longer have any credibility. Someone who joins the board and immediately becomes obsessed with bashing one LSU player every day has zero credibility. Not hard for everyone to see your agenda. You have quickly become irrelevant, and predictably nobody will be listening when you spew your venom for Welter or any other LSU player. Nice try though. Now you can go back to your job at Wal Mart and picking those carts up from the parking lot.

"Keyboard Gangstas" really crack me up.


P.S.
Question, am I bashing a player, or am I making a relevant point that is related to the Topic of a thread?

P.S.2.
Since I don't think Welter is our best option, I work at Wal-Mart and collect grocery baskets.



I'm still waiting for someone to post an on-field analysis as to why Welter looks better than the guys behind him. That has yet to happen in this thread.

P.S.3

It may sound harsh, but being Leader of the Unity Counsel has no bearing on what happens from whistle to whistle on the field.

I really can't wait for this season to start. As it all will play out.

So, if Garret or one of our JR LB's takes that spot, do I have your permission to ask for a promotion to bag boy. I mean, it's hot out there in the summer while I'm collecting baskets.

If Welter turns into 1st team, Butkus award type talent, I'll collect every basket in that parking lot, without a word of complaint.


P.S.4
Any team, no matter the conference, should expect that their MLB be close to the team lead in tackles. That doesn't mean that the LB made impactful or game changing plays, or that coaches gameplaned around that players talent's because he was such a beast.

Their are 100 plus D1 teams, do you think every LB that starts is a game changer? Not at all.

My point is, I feel as though we have game changers that are sitting on the bench. Welter has shown little ability to drastically impact a game.

This is not me being a basher, this is me stating facts.
Some people have trouble dealing with facts.

I'll say again, it's like thinking Shepard would work out his problems at WR. I knew that OBJ and J Landry were better players the day they stepped onto campus.

Would I have been a Shepard basher for expecting the coaches to work in Landy and OBJ over Shepard, who was by all accounts, a team leader and spokesperson for the program.

Name calling doesn't overrule logic.

It shows a lack of substance in your arguement.

What has Welter done that makes you so confident in him?

Let's stay on topic, and let me collect my baskets in peace

Well he can be the biggest fastest badass in the game but if he plays as stupid as he did last year it wouldnt matter, He was outta position in so many ways last year. I wish they would have put him on the bench in some of those games.
His speed hurts but seems lack of FOOTBALL sense is glaring. For all of you who dont know that term football sense: Ability to see the play BEFORE the play develops and to get there to stop it.
Sorry to say I envy some of the other teams that have the quality LBs to go with a good line.
I just want some LBs that bring fear to Rbs on the opposing teams, Would love to see a running back basically just quit wanting to touch the ball or block.
Not to bring up bad situation, kinda like JJ in the championship game, he was pitching the ball on the option before he made anyone commit. HE WAS SCARED.

My analysis is this...no one who played the mike last year looked better than Welter. I wasn't able to attend spring practices to know how he looked compared to Beckwith. But the middle has "call" responsibilities and the Chief ain't going to play someone there who he doesn't have complete confidence in respective to that duty.

With that said, I truly hope Beckwith has a huge year in the middle. Garrett won't be a factor this year at that spot.

I wouldn't be surprised to see both Welter and Beckwith on the field at the same time a good amount next year.

Pretty sure he wasn't playing Mike (and obviously not making pre-snap calls). Came off the edge on that play.

In other words, just stop.

I have decided to just see how fall practices go and just hope the competition is fair for the LB position. But Welter needs to prove he has improved substantially.

"This is just me stating facts". I'm curious as to what "facts" you are referring to? All I read is your opinion, which you are certainly entitled to. But I'll let Chief's resume & expertise reference any facts, as he knows what he is doing.You can judge Welter all you want, based on your wealth of knowledge AND experience in playing MLB in college football. I'll just trust Chief to put the best players on the playing field, as that is what he has over 25 yrs of experience in doing & is one of the best in his profession. FYI: that is a fact. And, yes, you are bashing a 21 yr old college player, I don't think that there is any doubt of what your intentions are.

I can't imagine any running back at the major college level afraid of ANY linebacker.
Respect, yeah. Fear NO.
Where do you people come up with this shite?

I'm not. Who could be angry when the average Rant poster provides so much comedy relief?

People forget he played after missing a whole year. He was number 2 behind minter. He'll be night and day next year.
