said the oline and dline depth has been a problem brewing for years, and his thoughts were that no matter who we hired it was going to be an 8-4 or 9-3 season, which it still may be.

quit bashing the staff and face the fact that we don't have the talent on the lines. this happened under les miles watch. don't put it on ed know matter what his position was under les miles, the head coach.

not saying you have to love Eaux, but if you're a tiger fan you need to be fair. he's playing the hand he was dealt.

oline can and will improve, but we're going to have to muddle thru with our dline. injuries and suspensions are killing us, and that appears to be our lot this season.

we will win some football games this year. 8-4 looks awfully good and 9-3 herculean.

Did he include a movie review of "IT" with this astute analysis?

I just think we'd have a much better short and long term outlook with a proven HC. EO wasnt and isn't qualified!!

The OL has had the same problem for years.

In fact, they have gotten worse under Grimes.

O should have canned his sorry arse and found one of the best OL coaches out there.

The fact that we are considering 8-4 good and 9-3 Herculean is pretty damn sad.

We didn't make a coaching change for this.

He knew 5 offensive linemen would leave the team after Orgeron was hired and they would miss on the juco defensive end intended to plug the gap in the roster because of the DL coach he hired?

Talent along the lines doesn't have shite to do with the penalties. Coaching is the problem. Period.

fricking horseshite. We have an AA DE and a potential all SEC lineman in Lawrence. CL was good enough to start on the team two years ago.

OL has ONE freshman starting, three returning starters and Brumfield is ready.

TEs are deep, F backs are deep.

Bahahahaha.

Lack of disciple? Those are Miles' penalties too.

Uninspired coaching staff? Miles.

Lack of imaginative offensive game plan? Miles.

The buck stops with the existing coach and his staff. He had over 1/2 of the season last year and the time up until today. LSU looked like warm crap on Sat. That is 100% on Coach O and his staff.

It is up to him to show MARKED improvement for the rest of the season. Miles left enough talent not to lose by 30 to Miss St. Period. Let Miles go.

Under Miles:

Coach O was the dline coach

Coach O was the recruiting coordinator

Since he's been HC:

He kept Grimes

He ran off 4-5 offensive lineman

I would say he is a big reason why what happened Saturday

Yeah, a guy here going on four years, heavy into recruiting, in charge of the DL, interim coach since September, and head coach has no responsible in what's going on.

What happened to LSU recruits for itself, we have more talent than 99% of college football, and ten wins a season don't mean shite at LSU?

Keep on spinning those goal post to meet your personal agenda.

There is NO acceptable excuse for what happened Saturday night and that falls directly onto the shoulders of O and his staff.

Most of the fans are not football intelligent. I am not saying I know all when it comes to football, because I don't but I am realistic. If anyone thought that we were going to be a national championship caliber team this year, they were clueless.

We are a young ball team. There was a lot of hype around Canada that people started to have unrealistic expectations. Right now isn't the time to get all worked up, it's what happens after this that needs to be looked at. So everyone calm down and just wait and see how this team evolves.

7-5 at best this season. The road games are brutal. I suspect we lose all of them.

I agree that Les Miles laid the foundation of this mess.

Guess who was the recruiting coordinator for all of these kids? Hint, it's the same guy that's never won an SEC road game. Same guy that's our coach.
