GEAUX!!!!
 
I'm beginning to wonder how much of our problem is recruiting, signing the wrong kids. Clearly, without the portal, we would have been lacking on the o-line (we got a center and a guard out of the portal, they both start, and we're still not good). We're playing with a redshirt freshman at left tackle and he's being eaten by quick DE's. We have a true frosh at the other tackle (filling in for an injury), and he's getting eaten also. Where are out upperclassmen? Well 5* Lance Heard is starting his second season for Tenn. at left tackle, a junior. We could use him, but we let him get away. Much of the problem starts with the o-line. Nuss does not have time and if he does he is sailing the ball high.

Appears our problem is COACHING
 
Think of how many 3 and longs we had tonight and we throw the ball short of the sticks.
COACHING

Think of the breakdowns on ST.
COACHING

Think of how many times we lost contain on Reed (and Pavia, and Sellers, and Chambliss)
COACHING

I could literally go on

Regarding the actual points you brought up, recruiting the wrong kids is an issue because Kelly has actually gotten on planes to go to places like UTAH to recruit 3* CBs when you can throw a rock and hit 3* CBs right there in BR. He has no clue how to recruit Louisiana.
COACHING.

Regarding the portal adds, we did TRY to get OT help through the portal, but failed to do so. To me, KNOWING you're losing Campbell and Jones, you canNOT fail to land a tackle in the portal. Instead we picked up more WRs than we can possibly use.
COACHING.

Regarding Lance Heard, he thought he was better than Will Campbell and left because he couldn't beat him out. He has been pretty shitty at Tennessee, considering how much they spent to get him out of the transfer portal. IMO the bigger problem is, why are our 5* OTs not worth a crap? COACHING. Again.
 
Listening to his presser, shortly after the 30 minute mark he refers to LSU as "they have a proud tradition...".

Shouldn't it be "we"?

If he hasn't taken ownership of the program, how does he expect his players to take ownership?
 
I caught the “they” reference too Herb. Last night was not good to say the least. Honestly I’m not sure I can point out a period this season where I felt that our offense was consistently good. BK is on the hot seat and I suspect some of the offensive staff will be gone regardless. I’m not sure where this team goes from here. At this point Arky isn’t a gimme. Does BK survive 7-5? 6-6? I’m going to see a former member of the LSU BOS this week. He’s still very connected to AD. Doubt he’d divulge anything but I’ll ask.
 
Harlem Berry averaged 7 ypc in the first half, a TRUE 7 ypc. The end zone stopped that number from being higher.

In the 2nd half, he carried the ball one time. ONE TIME.

Brian Kelly said in his post game presser is because we were behind. NO. His one 2nd half carry was literally the very first play of the half!!

Then here refers to LSU fans as something worse than "spoiled". He refers to us as "they".

Get gone dude.

I asked in another thread, but do you think TAMU regrets buying out Jimbo? I guarantee they do not, and I guarantee it would have been more expensive not to. LSU WILL lose revenue the longer they keep this clown. 🤡
 
Interesting film study. For Harold Perkins, many of the film studies I have watched this season, they say he does not know where he is supposed to be. He can make a great athletic play once in a while, but his football IQ is low.

 
One thing I will say about Elko, he was the DC at aTm for three years before getting the head coach job at Duke. They knew Elko very well. I read at Texags now and then and while Jimbo was under performing, many said they wished Elko was the head coach. They were proven correct.

So instead of sticking with a running game that was yielding results (and keeping the ball away from A&M), let's put everything on Nussmeier's questionable decision making.

How many times in chat did I note we were in "3rd and crap" again?
 
you want to talk coaching?

what about that 3rd down pass in the flat shirt of the sticks with no timeouts at end of first half?

then Kelly barking into the head set “what are we doing?”

um coach, you could override that call BEFORE it happens rather than question it AFTER.

I posted in chat last night, he's lost

Also doesn't seem like he gives a rat's ass

Agree, couldn't possibly list all the coaching blunders in one post so I left some for you.

did you see the replay of that Alabama TD where #1 for Carolina literally avoiding tackling the guy?
