We add the #1 RB in Berry who is a very dangerous receiver as well.

I don’t think we’ll get much from Berry next season. He is a little guy, under 200 pounds, and I doubt he gets the pass blocking down right away.

Whoa! Keys was a freshman, and he flashed.

Once Sloan figures out how to gameplan and call run game….he will be great. Not good, GREAT.

The problem is we have a very difficult road schedule next year.

Big deal. We only have to get in the playoffs. With that schedule, two losses gets us in, and if we have three losses we are not contenders, and I could care less if we get in.

Totally agree. Really thought with all this money and talent BK woulda made the change at OC. He did it with Polian and House, so I thought he’d go after a proven play-caller. Go steal one like Bobby Petrino. Sloan had really disappointed with his lack of creativity. The bowl game play-calling was nice so maybe he’s getting his feet under him. ?????

Play calling vs USC, Alabama, (red zone) vs Florida and aTm was awful and predictable. His only play-calling experience was La Tech. That’s like giving a Volkswagen driver keys to a Formula One car and being surprised when he can’t drive it.

Portal is still open! We will address TE and Safty before all is said and done

OL is a concern but there are ample pieces /talent available to fix the situation. These players are from the portal, recruiting class and young players previously on the roster.

Safety is the only “serious concern” as I don’t see the talent on the roster as yet.
Hopefully portal brings in the talent

schedule is much tougher next year, @ Clemson Bama and OM all hard games, plus Vandy with Pavia. UF and SC at home too

OL and S are big concerns, S especially has guys in the portal, Stroman from VT or one of the NCSU guys, apparently their nickel Cooley is visiting LSU this week. DL should be improved, wish we had another stud LB to pair with Weeks

I see 9-3 which may be good enough but may not be, we'll see. 10-2 with our schedule is a lock
