Losing your two starting interior defensive tackles and a safety with four years of extensive experience is a big deal - whether LSU fans want to admit it or not.
No it isn't, Whether LSU fans want to admit or not, Ego and Anthony Johnson didn't do anything great last year.....The had moments but neither was consistent........As for Loston, he was a leader but he was never gonna blow you away with his coverage skills, he was a "big hitter" who didn't really make the conservative tackle when we needed him too.
So with that said, I'm pretty confident we have gotten more athletic at safety and we have fresh bodies in the trenches that nobody knows anything about.

Which is exactly what Barnhart is saying. We just don't know what will happen. That is what happens when players leave.

This. Ego had his moments though.

sadly, they did more than any other player returning on our defensive line.
Barrow- led our team in tackles
Loston- led our team in INT
Freak- led our team in Tackles for loss

Couldn't agree more. Also, I feel like Ego and AJ didn't give consistent EFFORT and neither lived up to their expectations.
Experienced doesn't always mean better. Example: we had experienced corners last year that were displaced by 2 true freshmen (very talented freshmen). I think this year's defense will be significantly better than last years. By how much, only time will tell.
