Shouldn't offensive line play be the strongest aspect of the team when you have a head coach supposedly specialized in it? Since Leslie arrived has there really been a dominant line? How many offensive lineman for LSU make it to the next level and have success in the 5 years before Les compared to the number that have in the last 9 years?
525 yards given up to Ole Miss. Multiple chances to stop drives on 3rd and longs and we couldn't do it. The 2 deep zone is horrible, and it fails us constantly. At least people aren't calling it prevent anymore though.
One thing we can agree on . . . Studrawa's lines have underperformed consistently. Les needs to make a change here.
Me too! I am not a fair weather fan; I am in this for the long haul and LSU taking the field is still my greatest thrill every week. With all this raw talent, though, recruited yearly, I wish these guys were coached up to their max. potential. (And, when they are at their max, they leave after their Junior years). Such is life!
LSU has had some great OL coaches over the years, Hal Hunter (In the Pro's now, OL coach with the Colts), Rick Trickett (OL Coach at Fla St.), and Larry Zierlein (OL coach with Zona Cardinals).
