I seriously doubt it. In his 2 offseasons here, JD5 went back to California to train with a guy there. That and the VR setup LSU had was the reason for it i believe.

Sloan was close to incompetent
Not qualified to call offense in the Catholic league.

I never understand how he could be seriously considered. He had one stop and that was LA Tech. I can’t even name a great LA Tech QB or offensive player recently. Don’t know how he was promoted after his resume.

BK didn’t want any new staff for fear of his incompetence being exposed.

I don't like Sloan as an OC but he actually does do some good things in the QB room. He is just a disaster as a play caller and he doesn't understand how to implement or install a creative/successful running game.

But in the QB room he does a lot of good things. Some people are just not meant to be a play caller and he is one of them.

JD5 gave little to no credit to Sloan and don't think they were on great terms after he left.

Well that certainly worked out the exact opposite way didn’t it?

apparently, none of our offensive coaches can because the playcalling was just as terrible Saturday

He turned Daniels from "run first", to a see the field and make a decision. If you can't see the difference between Daniels 1st year and 2nd year, that is your problem.
Nuss passed for over 4000 yds, one of only four QBs in the history of SEC.

Playing behind our lMatador" of an offensive line, is what caused Nuss' downfall.

Was play calling any better vs Alabama?

Apparently it's required to have an OL to develop a QB

And on that note "I know what a good offensive line looks like"

is in line with "you are all spoiled"
