Except for Kardell Thomas, M Brennan, & Emery, the others are playing far from home. That 1st yr away from home is hard for most kids. The Covid restrictions probably amplify the loneliness. Add to that the on field struggles and the team cultural issues (which we as outsiders can only speculate about) and you have the makings for a mass exodus. Oeaux has made a concerted effort to recruit nationally to get elite athletes. 2020 may turn out to be a year when staying away from La may bite him in the ass.

Just blow it all up at this point and clean house. There is very little to gain from playing our next two (3 maybe?) games. If our coaching staff is as bad as some people here calm it is, then an entirely new one would be a guaranteed improvement. Right?
Correct. Nobody was stupid enough to hire Ole Miss' Losingest Coach...except LSU BOS & "He was the Search", Joe Alleva. Nobody. Even the USL coach would be a tremendously huge upgrade at this point.
Hopefully, someone at LSU is able to hire a competant Head Coach, an Urban Meyer, Joe Brady, etc. ect.
