There are a few questions on this board that will never get a real answer

Well to be fair we have been in the playoff talks a couple times but it’s always in the first week then we play Bama.

Ogeron middle of the pack

Talent is above average

We were in the playoff talk this year

---

Where does Orgeron rank as a head coach ? Where does LSU rank in talent? With the talent LSU fields we should be in playoff talk most years. Constant 9 win seasons is like being an addict and not knowing it.

Constant 9 win seasons is perfectly satisfactory for the majority on here, in the LMSU fan base and more importantly to those that matter the most. (BOS-FKA-JA)

Orgeron is a mid-level SEC HC. (Not horrible, but will never be upper echelon)

LSU talent is comparable at every position to the Crimson Devils, except in the two most important ones. (Offensive Line and Defensive Line) Not even close there.

DL talent is not bad, but not nearly enough depth. OL is not close in any area. (Front line talent or quality depth) They're mostly smaller State school SELAU/SWLAJC@L caliber.

I question Orgeron and the Recruiting Coordinator on their ability to identify weaknesses and fix them in recruiting. We need to be signing 5 OL's and 5 DL's minimum every year. (No JUCO's either) All these highly ranked classes every year are not heavy enough in quality OL's & DL's.

Currently, we don't have the OL/DL talent to be in the playoffs. Many on here that have never played a down of organized football at any level don't seem to realize this because they look at the highly ranked recruiting classes and get excited. (Never mind the fact that the classes don't have nearly enough quality OL/DL to make a real difference) IF the OL/DL were better, LMSU would be right there.

BTW, I look at this Staff and the only ones that are "Bama Quality" would be Aranda, Busch and Raymond. Sullivan knows his stuff, but it's not translating to the field and I think it's time for him to retire. Everybody else needs to go. LSU can do much better than Ensminger as OC, (He needs to be coaching TE's) Robinson, (As RC) Joseph (Can't coach any position at this level and can only recruit) and Johnson. (Not experienced enough to coach DL at this level)

Remains to be seen if O realizes this and will do what is necessary or will it continue to be status quo BBQ Buddy mediocrity on the Staff.

The stubborn BBQ Buddy thing is what kills most Head Coaches in the long run.
