This is the same appeal to authority bullshite people use when they have nothing to add to a conversation

Don’t have to be a coach to notice drops

It is really sweet that you like players who "know" the playbook. Performance is much more important. Knowing the playbook is necessary, but if you know the playbook inside and out, and cannot perform, you are a liability and do not need to be in the starting rotation.

The better question is why didn’t anyone in the media ask this today

You really think an LSU beat reporter should ask the HC why hes playing a particular kid because all us fans think that said player really sucks?

Thats all mostly true but you’re missing a very big issue, some might even say its the “BIGGEST” issue:
There has to be a WR thats BETTER at some of the skills a WR needs -> like actually CATCHING the GD thing!!!

Why is Kyren Lacy playing over more talented WRs?

Wasn't Lacy the ONLY highlight in the 2nd half? If if wasn't for him and a pretty good move, the score would have remained at 17. What were the other receivers and running backs doing during the 2nd half....not scoring TD's, that's for sure.

These two sentences in succession make me laugh.

He is a possession wr…….if doesn’t drop that pass….

2 drops not 4. I thought he should have been pulled, though. He drops too many.

OP misrepresented some things. Lacy has a lot of talent and good speed. He gets open. And is hard to tackle. It is really just the drops. I would not give up on him, but absolutely would have pulled him. We have plenty of other talent at WR that deserve their chance.

BK is in the business of starting players who show up to meetings on time not whos the most talented. Sad
