We're still paying for recruiting mistakes, evals and attrition. The transition is nearly over and both the current regime and former are to blame. The former O lineman turned HC left us in a hole last year but I commend the job done by the players and coaches for gelling and maturing quickly. McMillan was never gonna start. Narcisse had a lot of work to do. Brennan needs a cheeseburger. Jury is still out on Burrow. It's his job to study mistakes from last week and get the ball out quicker. It's the job of the current staff to make proper O line personnel moves and schematically alter our approach in order to successfully matriculate the ball down the field.

There is way too much logic in this paragraph.

Yeah, I remember seeing alot of pro Ensminger threads and I feel like people forgot that he was in control when O first took over and the offense looked dull. I don't know why with the addition of a QB that everyone thought he'd call more aggressive plays.

I'm not blaming Miles for this shite show.

100% agree. Coach O is the captain of the ship (or shrimpboat).

We lost 4 Olinemen between Les' last day and the start of 2017, and they were not seniors or draftees.

Keep lying to yourself.

“ left us in a hole”

Miles has been gone from LSU football for 24 games. Coach O came to LSU in 2015. Since that time he has held the D line coach position, recruiting coordinator position, interim head coach position, and head coach position. One would reasonably think that he has some responsibility for any holes currently on this team.

Coach O will face Auburn this weekend for his 16th game calling all the shots at LSU. He will also face Auburn with his second OC in that time period. He will also face Auburn with a scoring offense and yards per game offense that is worse now than what it was in 2015.

Some people are more than a little frustrated that the offensive production which got the last LSU coach fired is in fact better than the current LSU offense.

Hopefully, all that will change this weekend.

Our offensive woes have been directly attributable to QB development. We have had guys with talent, but were never developed and taught how to play the position. Example... Mond sucked last year. One off season with Jimbo and he looks like a young Andrew Luck. We have not had that luxury in forever.
