Maybe Nuss jumping before the snap was a signal.

Where did you hear this rumor?


In his last press conference Sloan was asked what Alex Atkins was bringing to the program this year. One if the things Sloan pointed out was that Atkins self scouted LSU and their tendencies and helped fix them.

Basically, Sloan admitted that LSU was tipping their hand last year on what they were going to run.

When you can’t run the football worth a shite, you become very predictable..

We complained about this all season on the rant and game forum.

Wouldn't surprise me at all. My wife can call most of them knowing down/distance and formation.

He actually has the exact opposite reputation.

I’m sure Sloan is very personable at the country club, but as a coach he’s not known for keeping his cool. There were multiple shots of him during games last year going nuts in the press box. You don’t see experienced coordinators doing stuff like that minus Coach Boom.

Sloan can't hold Ensminger's jock.

Coordinators of all types go crazy in the box. That doesn’t make them an a-hole. You ppl watch a 30 seconds clip of a guy on a Netflix show and think that’s who he is. lol

When the BK tenure is over it will come down to a series of bungles that could have easily been avoided if he were willing to take advice and didn’t have such a big ego.

1)Hiring Polian as recruiting coordinator and letting him take a national recruiting approach. The class under him from 2023 has almost entirely transferred out and it’s why we’d be in big trouble this year without the portal bailing us out.

2) Hiring Matt House as DC and two completely unqualified DB coaches. While Matt House was here we had the worst defensive staff in the SEC. No development and awful recruiting occurred under his tenure. It has taken two years to reverse the effects of House.

3) Letting Denbrock go and not hiring a qualified replacement. Obviously Denbrock wasn’t perfect but he certainly was very good and experienced.
All of this is valid and correct.

Don't forget about..............

1.) NOT retaining Oneofus Raymond.
2.) NOT retaining Blake Baker.
3.) NOT retaining Greg "I'm not related to Mattt" McMahon as Special Teams Coach.
4.) RETAINING Sylvester "In over his Head" Davis as OL Coach.

Time's Up. Put up or shut up. Either make the CFP or gtfo.......

This board whined and moaned about LSU running on 2nd and long but when you actually break it down, LSU didn't run on 2nd and long more than anyone else.

I see a resume of a guy who paid his dues and has continuously been promoted his entire career. He's obviously showing something to the people employing him.

Sitting at the games or at home you could call the RZ plays before they got called in the huddle. 1st down Inside zone hand off no gain, hurry up 2nd n goal same inside hand off lose 3-4 yds, third incomplete pass 4th down hope and pray the the special teams can kick a FG from 25-35yds…that’s how you lose close games scoring FGs vs TDs! Thank you BK & Sloan for this stunning play calling all year!

This is the first time I'm hearing about this as well. OP needs to elaborate more on this.



I'm sure you remember the OC heading down to the field before the game was over.

They were pretty damn proud of themselves.

Either Sloan or Bo Davis will likely be the sacrificial lamb at the end of the season if Kelly fails again to reach the playoffs.

Sloan will have been given two years to show what he can do. That's long enough.
