Its absolutely a good problem to have and the thought of all these guys coming back next year, stronger and more experinced has me very excited! We've got some pretty good recruits coming in to so they wont have to be thrown into the fire right away like Cambell and Jones were!

When is he supposed to be coming back? I wouldn't mess with things against AL in 2 weeks but in 4 weeks we'll have UAB and that could probably provide opportunities to experiment if desired.

According to the timetable for a grade 2 MCL sprain, he will probably be ready for Bama.

Going forward I believe that the plan for next year is to use the spring to groom Dellinger to play center


Nah. He’s a guard. Obviously Turner had the mental side down and he could make huge strides with another year in the weight room. But they really like Fitzgerald West there too. If anybody unseats Turner, it will be him. Barring any injuries, of course.

Y’all have to be BLIND!!! Bradford and it’s not even close… if you actually watch him he has to be one of the laziest lineman I’ve ever seen… the most disappointing play was when he pulled and was one on one with a defense player and could’ve creamed him by using his size but two hand touched the guy and he almost made the tackle… BRADFORD IS TERRIBLE!!! You get him off the field watch how much the offense really gets going early…

Dellinger has been banged up all season. Give him a sufficient amount of time and then if he beats Bradford out in practice, you play him

You: “Daniels is Brandon Harris/ Anthony Jennings “. What happened to your “film” watching? You couldn’t notice he is a completely different level of athlete than those 2? He did have something in common with them though, I’ll leave that up to you

That's what I think. Plus, you're getting downvoted, which is a sign that you're right.

Well Brad Davis and Kelly must be blind too. Was it Frazier or Bradford who was on the bench before Dellinger was hurt. I’ve watched the oline on game repkays all season and I don’t think there is any question that Bradford will stay in the starting lineup. They are both doing a good job now as far as I’m concerned so it’s a bonus to have three quality guards.

It’s funny because the majority of these guys hate “group think” but when you point out something TRUE, oh no!!! He doesn’t agree… lol!!!

Bradford is so bad they decided to move him to LT when Campbell was hurt.
Turner has been very good and is not going to be replaced unless he gets hurt. He may the most improved player on the whole team.

Bradford was moved to LT because Wire isn’t SEC material and they didn’t have anyone else to play in that spot… the coaches are still learning the players, that’s why they were forcing Dellinger to Center when we easily could’ve won Fla. St. game if Turner starts at that position…

Lol. Bradford is slow, lazy, and terrible, but let’s put him out there at left tackle instead of Frazier who was supposed to be a tackle, has a tackle frame, and not slow and lazy. And you are calling everyone blind? Kelly flat out stated that they really hated to move Bradford to left tackle for the Tennessee game because they really like him at guard and were going to miss his physical presence inside. Someone please let Brad Davis know that Mayfair2Pville has determined that Bradford is terrible and that once he is taken off the field, the offense is going to really get going early. By the way, has Bradford been in the lineup when the offense has been rolling? When you start calling players out as terrible, when they are in fact, an asset to LSU’s success, you don’t get a pass for being a dumbass.

Yes, between injuries to Brad/Delly. He gets moved out first if you ask me.
Not shitting on the kid. First year vs SEC DL's and he's held his own after a rocky start. Good depth piece inside on either side now if he doesn't start.
The OLignment has been good, hopefully a tough call for the Coaches.

In my book, Turner is easily the Most Improved Player this season. Not even close and nobody is more surprised about his good play than me.
OLignmen been doing good work and without the solid Center play - well, we know how that looks

If it were me, I wouldn't change anything. I think Frazier at LG has been our best lineup.
Difficult to argue with that after these last 2 weeks.
