Saying "Lack Of Talent" is a slap in the face to the team.

It's pretty shitty to say that about our kids..By the way, 19,20 and 21 were top 5 recruiting classes and we added top recruits through the portal. Lack of talent is bullshite..If Kelly makes or portrays that statement he will lose the locker room and watch what will happen then..

This team has exceeded expectations. Fan base got greedy and changed expectations.

We have talent but are just limited at QB.

Good enough to steady the program and start building from the ground up.

BKs breakout game will be against USC in Vegas.

If he sticks with Daniel’s, he’ll surely lose the team, if he hasn’t already. Kelly appears to be a hard headed, thin skinned wimp.

And less than 40 of those were on the roster when Kelly took over.

If the "thoughts" posted on this site are typical of the LSU fanbase, then its truly the most delusional in all of sports.

We have talent at WR and DL other than that pretty average for our standards but mostly we have no depth and a QB and OC that do not mesh. We can't run and don't have a pocket passer but we are keeping him in the pocket too long why are we not rolling him out to buy more time for the passing game.

We do have some good young LB's and maybe OL but kinda early to tell because OL takes a couple years.

I agree he shouldn’t put that out there in those terms. It’s not a lack of talent. It’s a lack of talent in certain positions. Having a bad OL is like building a house on sand. No foundation. This team is a lot better than I thought they’d be this year. The sky isn’t falling.

I bet you have subscriptions to all the recruiting services because you really believe they mean something.

The facts are our rankings were fools gold. We have so many guys that didn’t pan out under O and now under Kelly. Many are gone. Some are here trying to get in the game,

We are not deep. We are weak at multiple positions and tests the main reason we have freshmen and transfers all over the place.
Offense- Against Auburn we started three freshmen, and two transfers and a walk on.

Defense- Against Auburn we started five or six transfers.

O recruited stars, he didn’t evaluate them properly as to character and potential.

Dude, look at college football, no one has depth anymore...it's the portal, NIL...there will be no depth anymore. They will all transfer to play now!!Look at Bama without their QB. APP State and Marshall beat Power 5 teams and then can't win a game in their conferences..This is the new college football..The NCAA better wake up.

A) He’s not
B) We do have less talent compared to O’s early years/Les’ last year

The best players from those classes aren’t on the team anymore. Do some homework before spouting off

Are you saying that people should ignore the truth because it's insulting?

Or, are you saying that we don't have a lack of talent?

Are you forming your opinion based on what you want to be the truth?

The problem with this team is NOT ‘lack of talent’.

The problem is the head coach and QB.

We made a poor choice hiring him and he’s done the same picking his QB.

We’ll suck for years. Get used to it.

This Completely goes against your argument on the talent on this team. Yes they are fine players, but they SHOULD NOT be the best players on a team hoping to compete.

Why did LSU have only 39 scholarship players at the end of last season? Did they quit...er "opt out" or transfer? Was the cupboard really that bare when BK took over?

Lack of depth leads to lack of talent on special teams…
