Cliffs:
He's excited to be at LSU and says everything is as great as expected but the players are his favorite part. They are buying in when it's easy to resist change.
Loves guice, said his first question to CMC was about protection schemes. That says a lot about his mentality. Said he's got more talent than any RB that's been in his system. (Melvin Gordon, Michael Turner, and Montee Ball to name a few).
Chark is a class act, does all the right things. Works hard and has no ego about him.
Loves the talent of the WR group. Says they are as good as anyone. He needs to make sure they live up to it from a production standpoint.
Thinks the Oline will be the strength of the offense. Thinks there is a lot of talent and experience in that group.
Etling has the lead on the starting gig but all QBs will get a chance in the fall. He and CEO both agreed that they would look at the different skill sets of the QBs and choose the one that gives the best chance of winning. At this point, that's Etling.
Said McMillan shows a lot of promise.
Said Narcisse is still trying to get his legs under him. Says he has the potential to be a game changer but he's been away from the sport for so long that there will be a learning curve so to speak.
Game plans will be based around getting our best players matched up on there worst players. Packages and play calling might change week to week but the core of the offense will remain unchanged.
Loves the sliders from walk ons.

We heard this every year from Miles. I'm just ready to see another dominant line that can move Alabama.

Great interview. Etling having numbness in his leg and back issues says a lot about his toughness. Also explains the accuracy and velocity issues last year. Looking at what etling did last year with a bad back I would bet no one is gonna win the job over him. The way Canada and O talk we got a pretty good qb. I think he's gonna shut some nay Sayers up this season.

I hope this is accurate and he's not just comparing the LSU offensive line to the Pitt offensive line. Pitt's offensive line was absolutely dreadful last year so I think a lot of offensive lines in the SEC would look really good to him. He's been around a lot of teams though so I'm sure he knows what he's talking about.
If KJ Malone has put on a little more weight and strength then I think he can be an above average left tackle in the SEC. He just got pushed around too much last year. Teuhuma(sp?) is an awesome guard, not worried about him. His pass blocking could improve though. Will Clapp is supposed to be our best offensive lineman and he's got the center spot sewed up. So that leaves Brumfield? at left guard and Weathersby at right tackle. Both were highly rated recruits coming out of high school so I believe they can be good players. Weathersby looked pretty damn good when he did play last year.
If it all comes together then I think this could be one of our best offensive lines in the past 3 or 4 years.

Great summary, Bert. Thank you.
