LSU did cross the 50 in NCG

My bad, they crossed it once on their way to finishing with 92 yards of total offense in the only national championship shutout of (or since) the BCS era. This changes everything!

that quote stated more kickers than ILBs were signed.

Not the same year I was referring to, but that’s another hilarious Miles roster factoid. I actually meant to say more FBs than WRs, but it would have still been a misquote... so here’s the source material:
quote:

During the 2018 offseason, Orgeron asked several New Orleans assistants to give presentations to the Tigers’ offensive staff. Brady did a segment on the RPO. A few months later Orgeron turned to his offensive coordinator with a plea. “We’ve got to go spread,” he told Ensminger. This was a vision Orgeron held since taking over for Miles. But having inherited a team built for the run, he knew it was going to take time. The roster had eight fullbacks. At one point in ’17, LSU had as few as eight healthy scholarship receivers. “It was painstaking,” Orgeron says. “I would look at the offense and say, ‘This is not what it is supposed to look like.’”

I guess I have to change my mind about Les Miles now.

That quote isn't in the article you linked, and anyway "At one point in ’17," or any point in '17, the roster spots regarding the number of fullbacks and WRs were fully Orgeron's responsibility anyway.
Sounds like another Edscuse.
