O says there were "a couple of miscommunication" in #LSU OL pass blocking. Yup! quote:O more on #LSU pass blocking: "Got to win one on one blocks. You start keep tight end and RB to chip, you've got 3 WRs in the routes." Yup again! 1: We really aren't there blocking-wise. That's what's holding us back the most. We were forced to keep 6-7 on passing plays to block. That limits our receiving options significantly, and we couldn't even block a five man rush half the time. As CEO said: "Not ready to make a living out of that." CEO made an adjustment to block for Danny better this week, and it didn't work; HOWEVER, he sees that and is going to adjust again. At least it's something. Point is this: we know the OL is kind of the biggest problem. Thankfully, it seems the coaches know this, too. It's not just about eliminating useless pre-snap motions. It's about fixing the lack of blocking--or working around it. I *holds breath* actually expect something a little bit different this Saturday offensively. Troy is a good chance to try some adjustments. That's my two cents' worth.

Semjase been sayin this for three years now.
Once yet again. It doesn't matter how big and strong they are individually. You've got to have 5 OL's that all know their reads and assignments. All 5 have to be on the same page and ours aren't. They haven't been since Grimes has been OL Coach. He's the constant. He recruits OL's that can't execute his scheme and can't process information quickly.
What's that saying? The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
Not much can be done now outside of "Simplifying Things" as Canada just said. I distinctly remember saying this right after Canada was hired. I said just wait till he gets a look at our OL in Spring practice. He'll be doing this. (

It's all playing out just as I expected it would.
Don't expect much improvement until 2018 when the OL overhaul begins. O and Canada full well know what has to be done!
