Lane Kiffin system vs players

Love you see all the "media" and anonymous SEC coaches talking up how good Chambliss and Simmons are as QBs and it had more to do with them as players than Lane.
I don't wish harm on the dudes but I hope they are mediocre this year so we don't have to hear this garbage anymore. Chambliss is being touted as a heisman favorite and the #1 QB in the SEC (Pate and others)...I just don't see how a guy who loses a OC and HC, who is an offensive genius can stay as good as he was.

Chambliss is a very good player. Yes, an offensive Coordinator and play caller can significantly help them but did you not watch the playoff game against Georgia? Chambliss won that game because of off script plays because he kept making people miss in the backfield and then scramble and find an open receiver down the field.
Chambliss is going to be very good, now will the offense as a whole be as good? Thats what is TBD and where I think they will take a step slightly backwards but Chambliss is a good QB and will have Ole Miss' offense very good this season. When hes gone thats where they might see a huge drop off.

I haven’t seen many media members talking about how good Austin Simmons is. Simons wasn’t actually that good under Lane. Anything specific you are referring to? I’m not sure why you have a problem with people saying that one of the best QB’s in the country last year will also be one of the best QB’s in the country again this year.
Also, can we quit acting like Kiffin is disrespected as a coach? Most people acknowledge that he is an elite offensive mind. That’s part of the reason why people have such high expectations for LSU.

Ole Piss is unfortunately going to have a good offense and it'll be primarily because Chambliss is a good QB. He's an excellent off-schedule playmaker and will be able to create a lot of opportunities for the rebs. The questions will be:
1. Have coordinators figured him out?
2. Will the new Ole Miss staff be able to maximize his abilities like Weis was able to do?
3. How many he times will he have to play hero-ball like he did against UGA, and can he keep that up for all 10 P5 Games the rebs play this season?

It's so ridiculous. Chambliss is a great player who excelled at the D2 level and then had tons of success at Ole Miss. Why people are incapable of acknowledging that 2 things can be true is beyond me.
I mean Blake Sims was a converted WR who threw for 3500 yards and 28 TDs in 2014, Alabama won the natty with Jake Coker in 2015 under Lane, Chris Robison at FAU threw for 3700 and 28, Matt Corral threw for 6700 and 49 between 2020-21... Notably, the above listed QBs have a COMBINED stat line in the NFL of straight 0s.
No one can tell me that combining any level of talent with THAT coaching is meaningless. Yes, Chambliss is a stud. Yes, you have to be an absolute bumbling idiot to think that Lane had nothing to do with his success.

don't forget, we lost to the mighty Chambliss by 5 points at their place with one of the worst offenses LSU has had in recent memory. He's not Tom Brady.

There will be s huge drop off this year. He's decent. Lane made him great.

Success does depend a great deal on the OC. Not just their play calling but the guidance in what to see pre/post snap. So I think Chambliss had good success because of Kiffin, just like lots of QBs have under Kiffin.
Chambliss is good though. 2 things can be true at the same time. Chambliss is good and Kiffin helped make him better through his coaching and play calling.
I think there will be a drop for Chambliss, but I think he will still have a solid year. Remember the turnaround by Burrow with Brady coming on board. Burrow was solid but when you add in a great OC that is coaching you up you become great.

You being sarcastic or do you really think Ole Miss is winning the Championship this year?

Flonase not only loses Kiffin and Weis Jr, but his position coach Dane Stevens.
The new OC would be crazy to change the Offensive play calling, BUT THE ENTIRE OFFENSIVE COACHING STAFF IS NOW AT LSU, except for the OL Coach. (Sullivan) Cregg is here too. That's THEIR problem to figure it out with Flo and Kewan.
