re: Les really let the program slide

“dl depth”

Are you implying that our D line/recruiting coordinator/interim coach/head coach on staff since 2015 whose main claim to fame is recruiting didn’t really do any recruiting for LSU until he became head coach and therefore holds absolutely no responsibility for what you see as a D line depth problem? I guess we are to assume that the players who left at the end of 2016 who could have at least added to our line depth are not his responsibility either?

That’s an interesting take and one I don’t support.

You need to lose your, you hate coach O BS, you try to label everyone with who doesn’t agree with your point of view. It’s not really working for you. Being of the opinion that a coach who has been heavily involved in the recruiting aspect since 2015 has to except some responsibility for that recruiting/depth issues not equate to hate. Its more college football common sense.

that's not how this works and you know it. Good players = Eaux's credit. Anything wrong = blame Miles and deflect as if the program was in shambles and ignore the fact that he was still winning 8/9 games a year.

I have never given Les a lot of credit for defense. The best players have mainly been defensive backs (DBU). Les was an offensive player and offensive assistant coach.

Les gets credit for Fournette, Guice and all the others on offense. He also gets credit for the offensive production under his watch - the good and the bad.

At best it seems we could agree the program is stagnant under Eaux. I've not seen anything to suggest an elevation.

Of course we can !!! LSU always had a buttload of support staff who are already game-planning and researching tendencies, etc for next season. One of Aranda's guys is studying the NFL and the SEC opponents to see what works against certain calls and the best way to defend them. LSU has never worked the players so hard during the season that they have no legs come November. LSU has always taken lots of transfers and JUCOS to shore up deficiencies in depth and experience.

Yep, same ole stagnant mess.

wl you what ,’ list he ones that Peveto recruited sand established the relationship with INCLUDING KEY.
ORGERON WAS NOT THE lead recruiter in most of that list. I fact probably a 1/3 or less.

The reason I asked about the others was because you left several off the list Miles recruited including he entire 2016 signing class.

It’s also how most of us so-called negatigers think. 95% of the posters on this board are somewhere in the middle, with the fringe 5% yelling the loudest.

Ultimately, though, it still didn’t leave us so severely depleted as you’re making out.


We still had fifth year seniors in Herron, Gilmore, and LaCouture to go with veterans Key and Clark.

Then add in the four sophomores from 16 and the four true freshman.

"LSU's season-long problem - defensive depth - is taking another hit.

The 24th-ranked Tigers will play Ole Miss without rotational players Michael Divinity, at outside linebacker, and Ed Alexander, at nose tackle.

starting F-outside linebacker Corey Thompson battles lingering injuries

LSU is already without four defensive players: edge rushers Andre Anthony (ankle/foot) and Sci Martin (presumably suspended/ineligible), and defensive backs Kristian Fulton (presumably suspended/ineligible) and Ed Paris (knee - out for season).

Also, defensive back Xavier Lewis, once a rotational player at nickel, has not played in a game in nearly a month, and two defensive linemen are ineligible: freshman nose tackle Tyler Shelvin (academic redshirt) and transfer Breiden Fehoko (transfer rules).

At one point during LSU's loss at Mississippi State, Orgeron had four defensive linemen available for three D-line positions. The depth problems are preventing a deep rotation or any rotation at all.

Earlier this season, defensive end Christian LaCouture played every snap of a game. Starting defensive end Rashard Lawrence missed three of the first five games with an ankle injury, and a broken finger prevented Alexander from playing in two games.

Frank Herron missed the first six games of the year because of a presumed half-season suspension.

Senior Deondre Clark and freshman Neil Farrell rarely rotate."



Yep, no depth problems here. I don't know what people are talking about?

Dude it's not even about just wins and losses. It's sad that you don't get it.

-Admitted meddling in offense

-botching recruiting last year in multiple ways and cases

-telling us in 2 years that he wants to run 3 different types of offenses

-costing the university money bc he wouldn't let Canada do his job

-hiring people who are not qualified to work in the program jobs bc of personal relationships

Lying about the offensive coordinator position in general. Conducting a farce of a search bc he doesn't have the balls to make a decision bc he fears the outside noise may not approve bc in fact it's a political campaign and he knows he isn't getting elected on his record so he has to sell hope and prayer

Those are just a few of the issues a lot of us have with Eaux. Then you throw in the worst lost to Msu ever (a mediocre team btw) and a home loss to a 23 point underdog during we got our shite pushed in and maybe you can understand why some are not seauxld on Eaux

Preach.

Not to mention throwing coaches and players under the bus during the season.

Anyone remember him telling the media that we had no kickers after they missed a couple?
Snapping like a dumb arse at the reporter who didn't completely fall in line?

The guy is a DBag of the highest accord...horrible representative of the LSU football program

Maybe Chaisson will do something this year then

Yeah, I don't know about that. He didn't look good at all in the Spring Game.

Word is that Clyde Edwars-Helaire will be switched to defense to man that position and Chaisson will back him up for a few reps per game.

hell, Troy's OL dominated our DL. but, we were missing our best guys; i

Ok. Our “second and third best guys” shouldn’t get man handled by Troy. Especially when our HC is a purported DL coaching wizz and has another purported DL coaching wizz on staff.
