Kelly has made no indications or innuendos that a move is on his mind. Personally, I hope house gets fired today. However, the head coach doesn’t sound like it’s a coaching issue. He “blames” it on lack of athletes. I’ll believe it when I see it

Doesn’t matter what Kelly wants. His hand will be forced at the end of the season

I think 1 more year but they have to get players. Where are those guys coming from? Don't see where they're going to get the personnel and A&M is taking all the guys in east Texas.

I’m with u, pard. House needs to go but recruiting needs to be vastly better. We need cash too! To hang in there

He's going to get fired because this maybe the worst defense in LSU history. The worst defense in the SEC etc. We have talent to be middle of the pack SEC.

No coach is going to throw his DC under the bus to the media. Wait until the season is over then see what happens.

The special teams were a disaster last season. As a result, Kelly “nudged out” the only coach who came with him from ND.

He hasn’t been hesitant to fire coaches in the past and he just watched the best QB he’s ever had be wasted by a historically terrible defense. House won’t be here next season

I hope House is gone but I have no doubt that positions coaches will be replaced.

I think it’s a combination of both, no halftime adjustments as well as lack of talent.
That’s on House and the entire defensive staff, offense has talent and is recruiting at a high level. Freshmen usually don’t make much of an impact in House’s defense, Womack, Weeks, Toviano, almost nonexistent. Looking at the incoming class which is 2 years away from contributing and we lost our best corner prospect. We aren’t a year away with this defense, player, recruiting or coaching wise.

You start a season with 2 all American D lineman, 1 all American linebacker,2 all conference linebackers, a 4 star and a 5 star with 3 years experience in the secondary and people say we don't have the talent? Wow!!

He didn’t make any indications or innuendos about Polian. It’ll work out.

Relax

House sucks in evaluating, recruiting, developing and in game adjustments. He is by every definition, terrible.

And in hindsight, other than a year at Kentucky, his resume really isn’t very impressive. He’s been exposed.

One of the DL didn't play and has been solid otherwise, the other has been far from impactful much less an All American. Our DEs can't impact the qb consistently and are too big. It's a crime what they've done to Jones.
Our A-A LB hasn't played like one and spends most of his time playing CB and chasing down runners from behind. Speights is an indictment of how bad pac 12 defenses are if he was all conference. Not sure the other but none of them can tackle worth a shite.
Ryan is abhorrent. The mere fact he plays is evidence we lack talent. Burns is good at times. Others he's out of position or missing tackles. Even better, talking shite down 14 when earlier the same kid(Milroe) ran through him. Sam is solid but can't judge a fly ball. Our CBs have been a wasteland. Last night the young kids had it easy since the rest of the defense decided to just let Milroe run around all night.
Then we got gassed and our lack of talented depth on the DL got pushed around for nearly 300 yards in a half.
We suck at tackling so badly that even the completely outclassed House was bitching "all you have to do is tackle" on a pan away. We lack coaching and talent. It's obvious.

For the purposes of this board, do you trust the guys running things to have chosen the right prospects to fix the mess? I don't. Combine that with the industry opinions on an individual basis being a mixed bag in most regards and there's reason for concern about the future. We've even lost hope with the portal based on this season. How much more is there until doom and gloom are appropriate?

Speights must have really short arms making it hard to wrap up runners, get off blocks, and break up passes. I thought his arm length was a little short myself. Runner ran right through his arm tackling all night. And, he seems pretty slow for this conference.

Kelly has zero accountability and does not have to do jack shite about House unless he wants to.

Exactly! The “we have no talent on defense” narrative is beyond false. It’s coaching and it’s been evident since Week 1. House is too stupid too make adjustments and too lost to notice them. He’s a waste of time and money and should’ve been gone. I never wanna hear from that fricktard again once he’s gone

Kelly's attention lately to watching the D in practices lately, in my opinion, he is studying the coaches more than the players.

That’s great news then. I was high on House and had a lot of hope for Steeples and Cooks but we have digressed to a whole new low defensively and they all need to go.

Idk too much about Lindsey so idk if I’m ready to see him go or moved to a different role yet but we need stability, coaching upgrades and RECRUITERS with this next round of defensive hires. He flopped MIGHTILY with this group
