Kiffin even said there was a reason he wanted the Ole miss TE. Not encouraging news to say the least. Already a few season ending injuries and Green out for multiple weeks with many top 20 match ups to come.

At least he should be back for the 3 toughest games we have left down the stretch

Just gotta survive until then

Someone needs to step up and be our big play maker

Probably see Mothershed working as a poor-man's TDG

And who better to scheme around this than Kiffin and CWJ

JD LaFleur comes from an LSU star bloodline.

How do you scheme around it when you don't have good receivers or a QB who goes through his progressions

IDK... that's why they get paid the big bucks and I'm posting on TD.

One thing good coordinators do is scheme up a couple easy throws to get the QB in a rhythm. Maybe start there?

Improving timing with wideouts and getting more comfortable running the offense

Mothershed is going to be a huge mismatch in the passing game more than TreyDez problem is he won’t be able to block shite at 208lbs

Da’quan Wright would be nice to have on the roster right about now.

no chance unfortunately. The injury he has will take 4 weeks minimum for healing then you got his whole range of motion, conditioning etc that will take another 3/4 weeks. Sadly he is done for the season. On a positive note he will make a full recovery and be ready next season.

At best he could be fully ready again in 8 weeks at the earliest. Its dangerous to take a chance that soon. Jmo.

Nebraska Power I, some variation thereof

You laugh, it's outdated. But Dilin Jones is a fricking hammer off tackle, Leavitt is dangerous on the edge rushing, and you could drop in a number of jet sweeps.

Build around that, focus on slot guys running outs from same formation (maybe on rollouts). Establish 1-2 wrs, then start adding a play or so once you get comfortable.

Never understood BK not recruiting more tight ends with his history at ND. Treydez is good but he’s a Wr and was bound to get hurt with how long he is.

The fact we had to Zach Grace as our backup pretty bad
