This is not a defense of the coaching staff as it is their job to acquire talent. I thought they should have been more aggressive in the portal for higher end guys. However, you have to have players to win in the SEC. We are talent deficient across the board at all levels on offense and defense. There’s no confidence amongst the players anymore because others teams have figured out how to scheme against our weakness and we haven’t been able to counter. To me, the problem with this team is 50/50 on coaching and personnel together. Neither one are up to par and both have to get significantly better after this season.

Between the secondary & LB might have 1-2, zy alexander & Weeks I guess.

For lsu to be good this year, they needed a mercenary offense to offset the defense. Because the offense has multiple. 3 on the OL, multiple WRs, and a TE. Durham is the best RB has had since Guice.

Nuss has completely ruined any mercenary philosophy that they needed.

Where are the kids from Kelly's recruiting class 2 years ago? Last year's class? Who has really stepped up and made some impacts on the game? Durham. Who else do you see playing today that will lead LSU to 10-11 wins next year with wins against Alabama, A&M, Ole Miss, Florida, South Carolina?

This team loses a ton of talent in key spots for next year

This is the issue with all the dopes that keep spouting off about the #1 recruiting class for next year. Where do you see these guys fitting in? Do you believe that class is so good that 12 or 15 of them will start?

When they are a 4-5 loss team next year, what's the excuse? "This is a young team, wait until next year to judge Kelly"

The future is mid tier SEC

Add Swinson and Dellinger. It is the smallest group we have had in a while.

There are some young guys like Green that probably are, but have to wait and see.

Agree on offensive players but

Swinson Jones Weeks Penn Alexander


I don’t see Penn making an NFL roster. Maybe Jones if he has a great combine but he can’t set the edge consistently right now. Stamps has two more years and if he keeps developing he might make a roster by year 4. We should be better on offense with the talent available. That’s on Sloan and BK.

I don’t mean guys that will get a tryout as an UDFA, I’m talking about guys that will be on an NFL roster.

I’d say the only one’s who have a solid chance to make a team are: Nuss, Campbell, Jones, Taylor, Lacy, possibly Anderson, Swinson, Weeks, Zy.

A far cry from what our roster typically looks like

Someone can, but that someone isn’t on this staff.

Lol

possibly Swinson?

Savion Jones will be drafted this year, as will Paris Shand likely.

Honestly I cannot believe what they did with the DL this year. This is probably their biggest win.
