Only significant difference b/w LSU and AL on the field this year was Hurts. For a program that failed to recruit and develop the most important position on the field for 12 years, it has been difficult to witness your AD address the program's most glaring weakness, then turn around and hire a DL coach to fix the problem.

Now we're held hostage on a yearly basis hoping for an offensive minded individual to bring in the right kid and develop him. I agree w power spread, but we don't have anyone outside of Scott that MIGHT fit the bill on the roster, if he can avoid excessive contact.

It would seem to me that an OC w an inside track to a Day 1 starter like Stidham or the JUCO kid would make the most sense at this point. I feel like O did the Brennan kid a solid here, b/c power spread will never be his game, IMO.

In fairness... its not like Saban is some QB whisperer. He hires guys to develop and prepare his QBs to not make mistakes that would cost his team a win.

O's whole tenure will depend on who he tags as OC, and I think the reason why he's going so hard at Kiffin is because Kiffin is a bonafied stud OC, and even if O knows that he only has 1 year with Kiffin, O wants to "get off on the right foot" with his OC hire, because EVERYBODY knows LSU would be deadly with an offense that can score.

I hope whoever he hires can get us there.
