    Zone blocking schemes are exactly what they sound like. Just like in a zone pass defense, the blocker has responsibility for an area rather than a particular defender. Whoever comes into that area is the blocker's responsibility. It can be confusing to some linemen, especially when they are first learning it.

    According to Tiger Rag:

    LSU coach Les Miles on Monday said he was waiting on waivers from the NCAA to allow newly hired assistant coaches Frank Wilson and Billy Gonzales to work with the Tigers during their bowl preparations.

    Where does this leave Tolbert?:huh:

    He backed out. I think you quoted a very old post.

    Assuming it is a done deal:

    Nice to see an LSU grad and former LSU WR being hired as one of our new coaches. :LSU231:

    The guy has coached for 3 NFL teams: Lions, Cards, Bills. He also coached for the Florida Gators and Auburn Tigers, so he has SEC coaching experience. Also coached for two Louisiana programs (UL-Lafayette and UL-Monroe), so has built contacts as a college coach in Louisiana. He was raised in the Houston, TX suburbs, so that will help with recruiting Texas.
