Do you have any reason to believe that isn't true? Seems well earned to me.


Seems like Pate or others would have been bringing up this story all offseason or even before this week.

The staff hasn't really changed and suddenly it's an SEC joke.

More likely, other teams realize Nuss is limited so they realize LSU can't score and they're talking about it.

Kind of amazing it's this bad under an (alleged) offensively minded HC.


BK has a defensive coaching background. I know y’all fricking hate BK, but no need to make shite up.

Because It wasn’t a thing in the offseason. They became a joke after other coaching staffs watch the game film of LSU’s first 3 games.

Just go watch Josh’s show, he said it clear as day! He has great sources and he even said coach’s around the SEC know our Offfense and we are very predictable!!!! CAUSE OUR OFFENSIVE PLAY CALLING IS HOT TRASH!!!! Scott overpaid a head coach again, come on people we have seen this movie before! The only coaches at LSU that deserve monster contracts is baseball and WB!

So why weren't they a "joke" last season?

Why did it suddenly happen in the last 3 games?

Didn't intend to make shite up. I will admit to making a wrong assumption. I assumed he had no defensive background given the defensive catastrophe that defined the first 3 years of the BK era.

I just assumed he was an offensive guy who was hands off with defense.

If you see the talent we have then you see how we are set up to play, I would laugh as well.

fair point
His teams historically were good on defense. He’s coached a long time. LSU has high ceiling but was a total rebuild and plays in a tough conference. Takes time. Maybe time has run out, I dunno. He did fix the defense, we can say that. Now all we need is another dual threat Heisman to score points.

Because Nuss is not a run threat defenses always have the numbers. No one is defending Nuss against the run. Defenses always have one extra defender when stopping the LSU run game.


It’s crazy how pro style have had a run game for decades. They must have used to play with 10 defenders.

Sloan is a joke of a play caller and we do not have anyone on staff to assist him. No one else has ever called plays. Think about that. LSU has an entire offensive staff with a combined 1 year of play calling experience.
Alex "I was fired at Florida State" Atkins was the OC at FSU from 2022 - 2024. I assume he called plays as OC.

He didn't. Norvell called plays until he hired Malzahn.

I thought a main consideration of Nuss return was to improve his ability to run. To make himself more appeal able to the NFL. I absolutely hate what is happening for this young man as we all watch what was likely a high draft choice had he come out last year versus his stock at this point this year. This man has seriously lost millions of dollars. And it is not all his fault.

Yep, I said LATech provided the blueprint on how to shut down LSU.
