re: Let's talk 2018, LSU football

---

LSU will be replacing Etling, Malone, Guice, Williams, Chalk, Weathersby, Key, LaCouture, Paris, Thompson, Alexander, Herron, Gilmore, and possibly Toliver

Already "baked into the cake":
- Malone, LaCouture, Paris, Gilmore

Depends on the next guy up and getting him ready... i.e. could turn out to be an improvement:
- Etling, Thompson, Herron, Toliver, D. Alexander, believe it or not... Chark

Ugh, hurts:
- Guice, Williams, Weathersby, Key

The defense will depend largely on the DL (all of 'em... roatation) putting in S&C in offseason and getting those young one's like Chaisson prepared (they did 'ok' at times this year). Worth noting we might not be facing Rosier next year (rsJR).

I'd say at least the D of the "U is back", offense will have to be ready. Period.
