re: FSU Offense against LSU's Defense ?
Posted by KanjiTora on 6/17/22 at 9:55 pm to DamnStrong
Force Jordan Travis to actually stay in the pocket and make throws, and then they suck on offense. He's not a true QB, and is a one read guy.
He was horrible against Notre Dame in the season opener, and it was McKenzie Milton who lead them back into the game. Ironically, the was Milton's only good game for the entire year at FSU.
Travis is not a natural passer, doesn't see the middle of the field, and they have to scheme receivers open, rather than him throwing guys open - or anticipating receivers to break open.
They still haven't done anything to help out at OT, which was a weakness for them. They swung for the fence to lure Amarius Mims away from UGA in the transfer portal, but ended up looking like idiots and getting embarrassed with him electing to stay at UGA after the visit. I do like their OL coach a lot, but he doesn't have a lot to work with, and most of their upper classmen are already maxed out.
Their strength on offense is their running game. Trey Benson and Ward will be a nice 1-2 punch for them. Benson is a legitimate NFL back if he doesn't have anymore injuries moving forward. Ward is a carbon copy of their former running back Devonta Freeman.

re: How long before Kelly brings home a natty

I have no idea if he will win one here, especially with how murky the waters are at the moment with the NIL era upon us.
But I do have complete confidence in him winning a lot of games in Baton Rouge, and having us consistently as one of the Top 15 college football teams in the country on a year to year basis.
Fortunately for him, he stepping into a program that has two really good QB's that are young, with no bad tendencies from a previous staff, or mentally broken from a lack of confidence due to a number of potential issues.
That's half the battle right there. You have to have a top tier QB in order to be in the conversation of being a "National Championship team" these days.
And I know they haven't done anything yet, but I believe one of Nuss or Howard will become that under Kelly.
Just have to build up the wall in time for 2023 and beyond, so that they can do their job on the field.

He can't catch.
He consistently drops balls, easy uncontested type of throws. He's much more dominant at CB in 7 v 7

Can buy them on DHGate for $24, or any LSU baseball jersey
They're professionally stitch, same material as the real deal, and you can add whatever name to the back of them too.
Here's the link -- LINK
If you want to see how they look, you can check some photos out on my Twitter @KanjiToraa

Luke Leto was considered the top overall prospect at one point in his prep career. Maybe he can help anchor the position down in 2023
re: Who is winning the early starting QB race?
Posted by KanjiTora on 4/4/22 at 11:53 pm to Ramsey Dardar 1982
No idea.
Can't wait to see them compete at the spring game. I'm focused on Nus more than Brenan or Daniels though. He has the bigger arm, and the higher ceiling. I doubt he wins the job, but I'm watching him closely for a development POV. The Nus/Howard competition in 2023 should be fun.

Time to extend him.

Lol at anyone who wants to can Wade.
Unfortunately, every fan base has it's fair share of dumbasses. LSU is no exception to this.

People LIVE stream all of our games on their personal YouTube pages all the time.
This is a head scratcher, by both parties. I would imagine that he would want to go to a program where he would basically be handed a starting job.

Would be a huge pull for Brian Kelly to set the tone in the 2023 class. There was a lot of buzz early on that he was going to stay up north in B10 country. Hopefully he's as wide open/interested as his quotes indicate.
I hold my breath whenever Thompson or Merrifield load up to make a throw to Morgan III. Hopefully they can work through things in time for conference play, but I don't expect a dramatic turn around in a positive way.
My expectations for the basketball program are simple.
- 20 wins (or more) per season.
- Compete for the SEC Championship.
- Make the NCAA tournament
Everything else is gravy.
Wade is a great recruiter, so eventually he will strike gold with a recruiting class that pushes LSU even further than we could imagine.
I honestly don't think LSU can upgrade from Wade as a coach. Are there better X's and O's coaches out there? Easily. Are there coaches who can recruit at his level that would come to LSU? Questionable.
Wade reminds of Leonard Hamilton at Florida State. The offense is basically the same. Both are tremendous recruiters who are loved by their team. Hamilton has turned FSU into one of the top basketball programs in the ACC. And I honestly believe that their team would have won the championship during the COVID season.
At the end of the day, the more talented team on the court usually wins the game. Just keep recruiting at a high level, and good things will happen. Which has been the philosophy at Florida State.
I use FSU as an example, because the coaching is the same, the coach is the same in that he's known as a program builder that sustains it's success through recruiting. Both coaches are enamored with length and athleticism, and the list of similarities just goes on and on.
