Rewatching some spring game action, and he was abusing Deculus the first few series. I thought when we got him that it was probably not going to pan out, but he might be one to watch. Has a nice arsenal of moves.

Coach O has been singing his praises all spring! He probably won't see a snap!

Just kidding! He seems to be having a great spring!

I wouldn’t judge him by what he did against Deculus, who is really not that good.

He got more snaps since ali gaye has been out.

Thats ali gaye's spot.
I wouldn't be surprised if ali gaye gets 7 or 8 sacks this year.

I know It’s fashionable to ahit on Dec, but he won a vast majority of plays against him.

Deapite the defense just pinning their ears back every play, It’s not like Fonua was pressuring the QB every play.

Not shting on him, but damn he's out of position. He has guard feet. You can probably turn on any game he's had and he's gotten beat nearly every time. Burrow and Clyde covered his flaws and last year the QB play itself masked his flaws. Been saying it for a few years now. He should not be a tackle. Probably a good mauler inside with the attitude he plays with.

I'm with you.

I didn't see the beginning but i just watched that myles brennan every throw video and he didn't get any pressure.

He is a back up to me. I feel like the ends struggled without gaye and anthony

BJ did well.

I actually Think Rosenthal is pretty good. But Anthony and Gaye obviously were missed

I also Think if you put the Purple Team Ends with the White Team DTs we wouldn’t have completed a pass.

You’re full of shite. Deculus was good enough to handle the best that Bama could throw at him. Same with Clemson, Oklahoma, Florida and Georgia.

Bj is a beast.

I think guys got tired from straight rushing almost every play.

My main point is lsu needs to get some beasts at the de position

Webb seems too small as of now.

Aren't he and BJ about the same size, also I was wondering if Webb played end or backer in the spring game?

Look at webb play then look at ojulari

Webb doesn't have any bend
He is too up and down.

Ojulari probably has 10 to 15 pounds on webb

Web was definitely a long OLB prospect that maybe will never be right for putting his hand in the dirt.

Really needs to bulk up, but I question. Whether a 4-3 is a right fit for him.

But Anthony/Gaye/Bj at DE and Roy/Smith Evans at DT

That’s a DL that will get after some fricking QBs.

If Deculus was so bad then why don’t we have Dare and Cam Wire as the starting tackles..? I agree his feet are slow for RT, but he has been serviceable for a couple years now.. 2018 season his feet looked really slow, but he improved enough to help us win a NC...

I am super excited about this defensive line. The depth - and quality of depth - is the best it's been in years.

Agree, but he hasn't been moved inside because he's currently the best alternative at RT.

What does that tell tell about Cregg's god awful OL recruiting while at LSU?

O must have had a "Shite or get off the Pot" meeting with him and lit a fire under his arse, because in comes Dellinger, Campbell, Bordelon and Taylor......

Lmao he isn’t an all-American or anything special, but Deculus was a mainstay and key cog in the natty team that won the o-line of the year.

The people in here hating on him must have a short memory.

Damn near everyone abuses Deculus. I wouldn’t look too much into it.
