Ok, what's the solution? How much more of this y'all gonna take? Where does the blame fall? I mean for our defensive shittiness during Petrino we can say much of it is on subpar recruiting, either because of ability or a poor pool. Obviously LSU doesn't have that problem.


I don't know what it's going to take honestly. Listening to Les' press conference yesterday didn't help things either. He really believes that it's not the play calling or scheme but rather it's the player's execution. Now, it's a combination of both but he has to see that he has to try something. I'll give you an example:

Mett's footwork coming from under center isn't too great. It's like he's in quicksand sometimes. That's where most of the sacks have come from because he's not getting his head around to read the corner. Mett out of the shotgun is a completely different story because that's what he's done most of his life and that's where he's comfortable. Out of the shotgun he's been sacked 2 times. It's also the formation he's made just about everyone of his big throws throughout the season. So logic would tell most people to put him in the shotgun 90% of the time with 1 or 2 backs and let him work. Sadly though, logic has never been Les' strong suit.

Yeah it's a mess. I really thought you guys would have a normal offense this year. It was also shaping up to be one of the few times I could pull for you in most games. Like last years team would have literally been the best team ever (in terms of competition) but failed due to lack of offensive consistency. As flustered as I am about our team, I would be even more so with yours because the NC talent is literally there.
