Yes . . . and WONDERFUL testimony to the quality coaching it is. There are a LOT of Leaders on the LSU coaching staff, and CLM is a fine leader of young men.
It makes me wonder how disruptive an influence Alex Hurst was on the offensive line for the early part of the season. The young guys are tearing it up.
Remember Mett getting killed on a missed block on his side of the line vs. UNT? Something was going on, and as soon as he was gone after the Florida game, the offensive line has started to play well.
The line has been dramatically better since the week of his dismissal. I don't know what was going on with him, but either his head was totally not in it or he was a divisive presence. This is all speculation on my part, but it's a simple observation.
We should take back all the bad things we said about coach Stud. When he has a competent QB, he calls a deadly game. Long, well-balanced, time-eating drives with the occasional downfield chunk.
The only difference next season on the Oline is Josh D is gone with Chris Faulk back, and Elliot Porter steps in for PJ. The line is looking very nice for next season.
