I still say all 3 of those guys will be quality DTs. With Herron, I wonder if it is disciplinary given the coaches naming him starter when they thought QT was out for the year. I've said this several times, but these guys really are not progressing all that slowly. How many of our recent greats really contributed their first two years? Dorsey may have been the 3rd DT in the rotation but Brockers and Logan were redshirted and I don't recall hearing much from Nevis until his JR year. Godchaux and Lacouture are definitely the exceptions. We are feeling it this year because we didn't sign any DTs in 2012 but hindsight is 20:20 and no one would have guessed LSU would have sent more underclassmen to the NFL during that time than anyone else. You still have the 25 man yearly limit and the 85 total. On paper this is a transition year. No one wants to go through a transition but we have all the talent and an excellent coaching staff to continue to succeed long term.

Do we run stunts? I don't recall seeing that. I thought our DL scheme was to let our 4 athletes on the DL out athlete the opponents OL. I haven't seen many other strategies being used lately.
