It shouldn't be this hard

Thats what this all comes down too. It just seems so hard for LSU to put together offensive drives and move the ball with consistency. It's been this way for a decade.

Take a look around the football landscape There is an offensive renaissance going on. What the Saints, Rams, and Chiefs are doing this year. What the Steelers and Patriots have been doing for awhile. At the college level you have the Urban Meyers and Mike Leach's of the world and the number of coaches from their coaching tree.

Even at the high school level, teams have switched to throwing the ball with more consistency than they did when I graduated in the early 2000's. But for LSU it has remained almost the same for a decade. No matter who the OC is, who the QB is, who the HC is, or the caliber of players around them. It has remained the same.

Why? IMO Its a matter of not being willing to choose an exact identity and working towards it. For years Les would recruit a dual threat QB and a pocket passer. Now O is promoting OCs that have been on staff for a decade. We simply don't know who we are or what we want to be.

A decision needs to be made.
