Most people need to realize this team was picked to win 5 or 6 wins. This was not the most talented LSU lineup top to bottom. We had a QB with no starts and was on campus for 3 months. We had no running backs, and a banged up offensive line.
We should have won 11 games this year. We lost 1 because of talent, 1 because of coaching, and 1 because of refs. Why would you blow up a staff that was picked to win 5 games and ended up winning 9 and making a New Years 6 bowl likely.
Relax people. There will be changes made but we are in a better position than people think. Improvement needs to be quicker, much quicker. Next year has always been my decision year. 9-3 will not cut it for me next year.

I’d say this staff has some coaches that don’t have the skins on the wall as actual coaches like Meatball and Mickey. Then you have some good coaches that can’t really recruit in Tommie Robinson
At this level you need to be a great recruiter and good coach or great coach and solid recruiter. You can’t be completely lacking in one of the two.

All of this is absolutely correct. The only complaint I had is at times the playcalling was atrocious (1st and goal in 4th OT, TD wins you the game and you run it 3 times). Ensminger isn't that bad. WR's dropped more passes than I think I have ever seen an LSU team drop and the o-line struggled. When the o-line was playing good that offense could move the ball.
Sometimes shite just happens. Deculus had to play this year and IMO he wasn't ready. You bring in the #1 juco OT in the country and you expect him to be ready and he wasn't. Your best lineman gets kicked off the team...
LSU is on the rise. Yeah it's not as fast as we all would like, but unlike with the Miles era changes are being made. The coaches are seeing what is wrong and they are trying to fix it. Not all of their decisions are panning out but they are changing what isn't working. Whatever coaching changes happen this year I'll be okay with (as long as Aranda doesn't go anywhere). The future is bright boys.

I think this says more about the people making the predictions than the coaching staff.
The rest I agree with. I'm not looking to blow up the entire staff. I hope a few key hires can be made (one of them being OC) and build on the success. Next year the coaching staff need to avoid the brain farts (Florida and to some degree aTm) and somehow find a way to compete with Bama. Burrow will be better with more experience. We'll get a studly RB. Hopefully we avoid injuries on the O-line and we'll get Chaisson back. Don't underestimate that. Losing him was probably the worst possible injury we could have gotten on D.

I don't think everyone sees this staff as something thats all great like a few here seem to think. We had to bring in a coach to basically coach the coach in charge of wrs. The rotation was bad, they dropped a ton of balls and lacked the ability to create separation.
Then you had slinger who seemed to call different game plans against different teams and in none of them did I feel he made proper adjustments during the game to counter what the defense was doing. Not to mention we were really bad for the most part this season and seemed to use the wrong personal at times for what we were doing. Seems we played tight and safe all year till the 7 OTs against AM.

Exceeding media pundits preseason predictions doesn't mean anything. They miss big every year and missed big on a lot of teams this year.

Offensive play calling was erratic, wr rotation was all Head scratchingly bad. Not saying the whole staff should be blown up, just offensive staff.

I agree, 3rd year is the make or break, money year for this staff.

So now the narrative is not even the "picked to win 7", it's picked to win 5?
You Ogre apologists never stop.
I expected at least 9 wins. Just looking at the roster and schedule. This whole "LSU is rebuilding; give O time; everyone predicted 8 I mean 7 I mean 6 I mean 5 wins" crap is a narrative spun by the Ogre camp. Don't buy it.

Agree on next szn tbl
If The lions share of the players (ie everyone but White and Greedy) come back I think 11-1 is very realistic. It’s actually a very good sec slate for us. @UT will be interesting but other than bama the only game that kinda worries me is at state.
That said I can totally see 9-3
