re: Whit Weeks!!!

Was he? I think he got bumped actually because they saw how good he was. They just got on him later on the evaluation.

Definitely not a stereotypical he's a gym rat lunch pail type of guy on the defense. Looked pretty athletic to me.
re: Needs to be said. Concessions
Posted by deuce985 on 9/24/23 at 4:48 pm
Weekly bitching thread about concessions for years now. I'll tell you what I tell everyone else: Take LSU's obvious hints and stop going to games. They don't want you going to games anymore. They keep making it more miserable every year because they have their media money and don't want to pay all the additional upkeep costs.

While this board is going to shite on his play, he honestly didn't look bad early on. I think his bigger problem is he's out of game shape. That's his biggest issue and that's why on the back end of the game he didn't look good. He should be limited on snap counts and he should seriously consider coming back to LSU 1 more year.

LSU is not in a position to grow a position coach. You want to do that? Stick to an admin position, graduate, or go coach at a small college. You get paid the money he is in his position you better recruit very well and show results. Steeples is nowhere near what we thought he'd be. This is the highest paid staff in SEC you expect results not to "grow" a coach.
At the very least I thought we'd get him as an elite recruiter but he's not that. Nobody on the defense is and this is where the bad meat of the recruiting is currently on the staff. House is lazy, doesn't recruit, Steeples and Cooks are decent recruiters but not great, we have no DL coach currently, and Steeples/Cooks are not good coaches. What are we paying for again?

They can't. House/BK don't adjust scheme. The scheme is complex. They clearly can't grasp it. Hard for younger players to. Harris even struggles at times with it and he should be playing man where his talent lies.
LSU's talented young players like Womack can't find the field because of this scheme. It should be drastically scaled back or altered but that's what happens when you have square peg in round hole coaches. They recruited DBs in the portal to play zone because they're not talented enough for man yet they got Harris who's the clear most talented potential big time player but he's playing what he's not meant to be. It makes no sense. The players last year caught on quickly from portal. The guys they got this year are not grasping it quickly.
Yes, LSU needs an Aranda here who molded his scheme every year based on his players and had no problem changing it throughout the season. House is not it. They will not change the scheme until they're forced to with a loss and that's a problem. Nobody in media is going to ask this hard questions but it's clear as day. It's why Perkins continues to struggle and play out of position. None of the players are comfortable in this scheme. Anyone can see it except House and BK.

re: We have to get a score on this drive

Guess this didn't age well. Thanks to the retard Allen making 0 adjustments to give a backup CB help when it was obvious they wanted to attack the corner the past few drives.
re: How many games have been won playing prevent?
Posted by deuce985 on 9/24/23 at 2:46 pm
Prevent a win. How long has Allen been at Saints and he still hasn't learned his lesson playing soft defenses at the end of games.
re: We have to get a score on this drive
Posted by deuce985 on 9/24/23 at 2:44 pm
They look really good. Looks like a typical shite the bed Dennis Allen defense at the end of a game to me.

Foggy glasses Pete can't see the time or the quarter on the scoreboard.

Every team gets into a rhythm on Dennis Allen's defense at the end of games.
re: Carr out for the game
Posted by deuce985 on 9/24/23 at 2:27 pm
Broken collarbone is my guess. Didn't look like he was moving it at all, looked noticeably pissed, and they x-rayed it.
re: Carr walking without his helmet = concussion protocol
Posted by deuce985 on 9/24/23 at 2:24 pm
I said it on here he wasn't going to last 6 games lol
I mean it's obvious with how horrible the OL is. Broken collarbone?

re: Tigers drop to 13 in AP poll

They're scrappy and they'll get up to play LSU at home while there's a very real chance LSU enters that game sleepwalking with the typical BK team of slow starts or just taking their foot off the gas.

This board is going to melt when LSU plays Missouri. Nobody is talking about them but they're much better than anyone knows.
re: Denver Harris performance this season
Posted by deuce985 on 9/24/23 at 12:03 pm
To add on to this, it makes no sense to run this type of complex scheme that takes young players awhile to catch onto. It makes even less sense in the current culture of NCAA football where instant gratification is needed for top recruits or they just bolt to the portal.
It's an absolutely silly idea that House and BK are running with. It might also explain why their recruiting sucks on the defensive side of the ball as it's probably easy to negative recruit against.

Posted by deuce985 on 9/24/23 at 11:57 am
I'll tell you the problem here
It's BK and House's insistence on using a complex scheme that nobody is comfortable in. They refuse to adjust it to player personnel strengths like Aranda would do.
Harris is athletic and easily the most talented. He's not a zone CB. He's a man CB. But LSU recruited in the portal guys who are not talented enough to play man.
That's your problem. We can't get guys like Womack on the field who's clearly extremely talented or find a position for Perkins because BK and House insist on forcing the square peg in round hole.
House doesn't make adjustments in games, he doesn't adjust his scheme, and he gets too conservative especially on mobile QBs allowing lapses in coverage because they have all day to throw. He doesn't attack enough.
There's your problem. Both BK and House suck at recruiting and they shite the bed on recruiting for the scheme too. That's his board's HC guru for them who's an upgrade over Miles and Orgeron but not saying much else.

re: Why isn't Kelly getting more criticism for end of game clock management?
Posted by deuce985 on 9/24/23 at 11:44 am
It's simple football knowledge. If you have the capability to prevent this, you prevent it. Why would you want to chance it so you end up another Bluegrass Miracle? You can try to spin it all you want it was shitty clock management period.
Since you can't seem grasp the larger picture here I'll explain it to you. It might show a bigger symptom that's starting to rear their ugly head on this team which revolves around coaching. It's not just clock management. Look at the defense and the misuse of several good athletes on top of not adjusting the scheme to player strengths or making timely adjustments. House has a refusal to change his complex scheme and it forces LSU to struggle to get guys like Womack or the necessary position for Perkins to make impacts. You have Harris handicapped into a complex scheme when his athleticism screams man coverage. This is on House and BK.
If you want to see a good DC, go back and watch Aranda's defenses. He would change his scheme based on personnel and strengths. He was an absolute magician. House and BK are forcing something the players are not comfortable in and they shite the bed in recruiting for it too.

Because football IQ on this board has the attention span of a gerbil and unable to put things into the bigger picture.
For some bizarre reason BK is thought of as some amazing X and Os guru on here when his coaching is clearly showing the opposite dating back into last season. It will only be time before this board realize he's actually a Les Miles shadow without the charisma.

He and Swinson need to be on the field on every pass rush situation period.
