IDK, but somehow it has to be O's fault.

Which is why any programs main recruiting targets should be OL, DL and LB

They occupy more positions on the field, so naturally, they should account for a majority of the roster.

Coaches should not recruit for 60yd TD passes or 80yd TD runs. They should recruit for domination on the LOS.

This is why I'm willing to give O a push on at least this season. Not because of his recruiting, but because our talent level had really started to decline the past few years. O wasn't walking in to a stacked team. We have one of the worst O-lines I've seen from LSU in a while, no depth on the DL, no proven depth at WR. It takes time


This. The cupboard was getting kinda bare. Not O's fault.

He's gotten/secured Alexandrer, Lawrence, Shelvin, and Fehoko and 3 other depth guys in the last 2 classes. I'm not the biggest Ed On fan but you have to give the guy some time to patch the holes left from past recruiting classes.



He also stole Arden Key from South Carolina when he first got here

This was an issue and we brought in O 2 years ago to fix it. His 1st recruiting class is in its third year.

Honestly the line is hurt but we had a lot of DLMen hurt / unavailable the last couple of games.

I don't think most teams would fair well losing 4 DLinemen in a game.

Brick Chavis, John O was specifically brought in to undo the talent drain on the DL because our non DB defensive recruiting had flatlined with those two on staff.


Right on the $
