Brian Kelly Talks About Getting Jack Bech More Involved

He's going to have to now, Boutte knocked up the Boutte.

Bech is money. Bech is a leader. His energy is contagious. He is a warrior and he means more to the team than just being a fast Fred Belitnikoff type player.
Bech is a fan favorite and will play on Sundays.

let him return punts as well

Kelly wants a big body, a true TE for his offense, not a hybrid or H-back. But what LSu needs right now is production in the passing game from that position and to continue to reward effort guys with the necessary talent, playing time. It will be informative to watch how Kelly maneuvers his philosophy against team needs with Jack and Mason.

A good example of wants vs needs is the Center position. Kelly ideally wants a big physical Center that can open up running lanes for Tailbacks and protect the QB in the passing game. Walker Howard will appreciate this one day.

But what LSU needs at this time is a Center that can do an adequate job in both of these areas but has an understanding of the nuances of the position and a consistent snap.
Daniels has a ton on his plate, worrying about a bad snap or missed calls, is not a formula for success and was hurting his development as the team moves into the heart of the schedule.

Kelly is very good at changing how he wants something ideally into what the team needs right now to win.

Wasting Talent, reminds me of when we had Odel and Landry here. Huge waste

Good to hear he is going to try and get the ball to Bech a little more. The problem is the WR room is the deepest on the team. I wonder who and how many will bitch if getting Bech more touches reduces the touches for BTJ and Jenkins. Just saying it isn’t as easy as it sounds.

Weird how other WRs manage to get theirs but somehow he needs help getting involved in the game.

I just hope JD continues to make progress. Our receivers are SO underutilized it makes me sick. So much talent. So few catches and receiving yards. This offense is good enough for the next two weeks, but will need to be a whole lot better after that.

All of the WRs are lacking opportunity. JD has some valuable skill sets but throwing to WRs while in route is not one of them.

Jack Mehch

They’ll have to get creative on finding ways to get him the ball on the perimeter because JD will not find him in the middle of the field. Just go look at where passes are being completed and at what % for his entire career, you’ll see the middle of the field is practically non existent for this QB.

Absolutely, this kid will be an all American and a player in the NFL.

If Daniels isn't going to pull the trigger down field, then Bech needs to be involved in what Daniels is doing. The short quick dumpoff stuff is where Bech thrived last year. Those routes to the flats that Mason Taylor has been getting 5 yards on is whwre Bech can pick uo 1st downs.

Kelly reads the Rant

Holy shite he’s been on the rant!

Brian Kelly has somebody reading the Rant. Each time the board starts asking questions. Kelly talks about it.

Quit forcing the ball to Taylor and give it to Bech. He's better..period.

Sad he got lost in the shuffle . . . .

There are a lot of WRs on this team and a pretty good young TE. It’s hard for everyone to eat.

You would think given Bech’s hands and athleticism he would be an excellent choice to return punts
