re: I am seriously concerned with DL and DL depth for next year..

Nobody on this roster should be leaving early to the draft. Will they? Who knows but they certainly haven't come close to living up to expectations this season.

I think you guys fail to see the problems with our DL. In a 3-4 they're suppose to eat blocks up in the run. The problem here is they're not that good here either. I see them get washed out of plays all the time and the defense is gashed in the run game. When LSU is running a 3-4 getting pressure is nice but not their primary role. I don't think any of these guys will ever do that other than just bullrushing through the line.

They had high expectations to be great this year but they're not. Falls on coaching shoulders and O should not be letting these guys play mediocre since this is his role here. If Aranda was not here O would've been fired already so they should be switching salaries. Meanwhile, Aranda can insert pretty much anyone at LB it seems like and good production from them regardless. Aranda should be the HC at LSU here not O and he should be getting his salary because it's clear this team would be a travesty without him here.

I'm not convinced Chaisson is the answer at pass rush either. You need other guys that can compliment this role but nobody else is a consistent pass rush. Did Chaisson even get consistent pressure his freshman year? I don't remember so. I heard the same thing with Hunter because he looked like a freak but played raw.
