I'd guess that Dillon would start before Anderson. Maybe Marshall but it looks like he either had trouble adjusting to the college game as a freshman or maybe the HS injury lingered.
But it's hard to ignore Dillon. When they get him the ball the guy makes plays.

Their head coach left and I’m pretty sure took most of his staff with him.

And they were a senior laden team.

You wanna talk about a rebuild? THATS a rebuild.

I think a lot of receivers are going to play a significant number of snaps. We will be going fast pace nearly all the time and rotating WRs in and out will keep the offense fresh. I look for a major difference from what we’ve seen in the past and that is a very good thing.

I'm convinced that Anderson and Sullivan are the same person.. Has anyone ever seen them on the field or off ,at the same time?

Am I the only one who thinks Sullivan could have been a 1st round draft pick at DE/OLB? Guy can’t even make the 2 deep consistently at WR.

I don't like this. Too much rotation and different sets last year, hated it. Just pick the best 5 by position and roll with it.

There is no need to rotate that much unless you are trying to scout your WR corp, which we should be well past at this point.

I don't see where rotation is a problem at all. Fresh legs and different skillsets.

Regardless of rotations, I expect Chase to put up all-SEC numbers this year. He's going to be a dominant force.

There needs to be a happy medium.


Last year if you took all the WRs and put their snap count in a big list, you’d think nothing of it.

But in watching each game individually, it becomes crystal clear there was no rhyme or reason to the rotation of receivers last year.

Sullivan had 2 ugly drops in the Spring game. Huge red flag for his NFL draft evaluation. Sullivan needs to work his arse off in thr off-season.

Dee is incredibly fluid with the ball for a guy who is roughly about 6'5 225.



I actually think Dee and Chase are the two most talented guys there... would love to see Dee become the guy..

I'd agree that in the past, elite offenses didn't have very much rotation. But Spread/RPO offenses have changed that,

In 2018 Ohio State passed for over 5000 yards. They had 9 receivers with more than 20 catches.

Washington St threw for 4859 yards & had 10 receivers with 20 or more catches.

Jefferson, Chase, Anderson (didn't think he was as fast as he is)

This will be base, but I think we rotate those 3 with Sullivan, Dillon, and Marshall in different packages.

When they go 4 wide, Marshall steps in, and Sullivan at 5 wide.

I expect us to throw it a lot this year. Last year we were averaging nearly 30 passes per game, and I think that goes up to anywhere from 32-35. Add in 40-44 carries,, and we are going to be a pretty quick paced offense.

You are missing the point. It’s not about spreading it around.

It’s the fact that LSU’s substitution patterns for why which receivers played which snaps made no sense. None. At all. Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nada.

And as a result, there was no chemistry, no cohesion, and no fluidity.

Why not?

Do you realize that saying they will redshirt is not an insult to their talent level? It’s a numbers game, my man.

There are 11 wide receivers right now, not counting Lee and Palmer. Why waste a year of eligibility for them to play like 6-8 snaps every game?

They can still play in 4 games without burning a redshirt, FYI.
