If you sign too many 3 star corners...

Where was Raydar jones?

There were some bright spots on the d-line tonight.

Ricks made a mistake on the TD he allowed, but overall for his first game, I thought he looked solid

Flott and Ward had a couple good plays in coverage, but overall they were nothing short of terrible

Evans, the poor guy, should not be anywhere near the SEC. One of the worst games from an LSU DB I can recall

I told people don't think he is going to workout and got downvoted bad
It's his second year and we haven't heard a peep about him.

Corey raymond is fine.
I don't think he told jay ward to quit on that last play and he def wasn't calling man to man with no help
Blaming Corey raymond is laughable

makes them run really fast, actually they’re not

wait til tommy moffit gets a hold of them, wait they been here for two years

they just aren’t very good...they never passed the eye test last year even if they were freshmen

staff needs to prioritize the cb position in a bad way

Corners suck, the defense suck, myles Brennan suck. Too many 3 and outs for myles Brennan, the kid been there 4 years and that's what u produce?? Yah I get the 2019 team had protection, I get that they had leadership, I get that had guys that knew what they were doing, totally get that. But the assistants and players had zero clue what they were doing out there vs moo state. So is this the year where University Louisiana Lafayette gets more wins that LSU football in same season? ULL is just about bowl eligible already

The bigger question is, why do we only have one corner in this class after seeing the lack of depth and talent yesterday?

I started a thread about the lack of big-time DB recruits back in the Spring and got crucified. I restate my opinion that we are lacking here.

Flott is a skinny slow CB who cannot tackle nor cover.
Ward is better but still nowhere near elite.
Eli is already far better but has some growing to do as would any freshman.

Blaming Corey Raymond is certainly apt. Did you see the technique used most of the day? It was horrible. That's Corey Raymond. If our CBs belong in group of 5 conferences, who chose them? That's on Corey Raymond.
I agree it's not his fault for Pelini sending the lambs to slaughter but to say Raymond is not with major fault when these are his hand picked kids displaying a lack of technique he's responsible for teaching is being disingenuous. Maybe there's a reason he's been one of the lowest paid coaches on our staff for all those years. Maybe the DCs were covering his flaws as a coach with scheme.
I'm not saying fire him or that I don't believe he's still a good coach. Maybe it was just that opponent exposed things that wont be exposed again this year but he's definitely due major blame for yesterday.

Maybe we should recruit fake players to go along with the fake fans

talent evaluation is critical -
