Serious Question

Yep, you're the only one

Great coaches would never field a team that plays this poorly.

I am not saying fire Coach O. He led us to the greatest season in LSU history last year and he deserves time to right the ship, but I think as time goes on people are going to realize that last year was an enigma.

He is a great recruiter, but never has been and never will be an X's and O's guy. For that reason he lacks the ability to make smart hires at coordinator, and he is entirely dependent on his coordinators to coach up the team. What is even more troubling is that his hires have been lazy. He has never conducted an exhaustive search to find the best candidate available. That isn't a recipe for success.

Every time this comes up I have to ask.

Did the teams they are playing have spring or fall camp? Did they have new coaches?

LSU isn’t the only one facing these issues

Yeah id agree if again we didnt replace 17 of 22 starters. Im gonna hold off on my judgement until the end of the year. Anybody in here that thinks we should have went 9-1 this year is delusional.

Theoretically speaking, if the coaching staff would have taken the defense and practiced pure fundamentals, gap assignments, tackling, effort and accountability, practiced and played zone the entire game, we have enough talent to be 3-0. Basic football fundamentals on defense. Basic shite, would be the difference.
