We shall see, they have two good young QB's this time around. I think it had more to do with the bad coaching than QB play, but we shall see. LSU played lights out defense when Saban was there just like Alabama has done now since his arrival. The defense since he left has been decent under people like Pelini and Chavis, but I hated their schemes and their success was based more on the great play of the LSU athletes. It has been much better under Aranda, but still nothing like the Saban days.

but on the offensive side of the ball, it's always been much more of a problem than QB play, the offenses were one dimensional and just plain bad when the run was stopped, and now we have Ensminger up to bat. Lol We will see what kind of offense he comes up with. But with a shite load of talent at the WR position with such players as Dee Anderson, Sullivan, D Davis, Giles, J Jefferson, M Netherly, McMath, and add T Marshall, J Jenkins, K Jones and probably Chase too. You better start passing the shite out of the football, no excuses.

Fwiw Saban didn't recruit many great QBs while he was here. He got Matt Mauck, Marcus Randall, Jamarcus Russell, Matt Flynn, Rick Clausen, and Lester Ricard. Mauck was serviceable. Flynn ended up winning a title and stuck around the league for awhile but was never spectacular. Randall was terrible. Clausen and Ricard both transferred. Russell was the only bona fide great QB he ever signed here. Davey was the best that played for him (Jamarcus didn't shine until after Saban was gone) but was signed by Dinardo.

Our QB issues have been present for decades. I feel like we usually have a good QB every 10 years or so

Sullivan/Anderson/Davis - All 6'5-6'6 unreal, we dont throw slants over the middle and jump balls in the corner endzone to those big hauses..

Hell, Marshall is 6'4 throw him in there.... Giles to the slot, Chase too..
