That offense, with a few good recruiting years, can play with anyone.
LSU seems to have lost the passion for a wide-open passing O. Don't know how they let Brady get away. Brady/E was a winner. Linehan/E looks average so far.
And just don't see Saban as dominant a HC as he was a couple years ago.
Longer range, I see Leach fielding a solid contender nearly every season. He could flip the program, like Bobby Bowden did at Florida St.
I think he will.

This is more to do with the talent and experience of the players they have.

That's the narrative. I don't buy it.
They should have paid Brady what they paid Pelini. Brady'd still be here, and the LSU offense wouldn't have looked like that dog crap last Saturday.

I mean I can only go off of what everyone including Brady has said.

2019 had much more to do with the players than Brady.
Brady had no offensive coaching experience before he came to LSU and has had some growing pains in Carolina.

Yeah but think of the Florida talent vs the Mississippi talent pool..

And Brady did his work in regular practice and off-season practice routines. They came into '19 sharp and fully prepared. This offense looked like the Sullivan passing game - half-assed.

If you thought the offensive struggles Saturday were due to scheme then you dont really know much about football.

I know plenty about the passing game in football.
Now where is your link to Brady saying he didn't want to coach in college. Money talks. Matt Rhule made him a big-league money offer. LSU half-stepped it.

How much is Carolina paying him compared to LSU?

That's a paywall. What is the direct quote from Brady

I dont subscribe anymore but basically along the lines that its always been his dream to coach in the NFL and he couldnt pass up to the opportunity to do so.
There were multiple people around the program saying he didnt like recruiting and he made it no secret that he wanted to go back to the NFL.

So still no direct quote from Brady. I followed that deal very closely and never saw any direct quote to that effect from Brady.
I think LSU fricked up the negotiation, and the, "Brady didn't want to coach college" narrative was the best line they could come up with to avoid looking completely incompetent.
The other possibility is that someone with clout didn't want Brady. Or they couldn't agree on who was going to call the shots in the pass game.
And Brennan may have tons of talent and a cannon for an arm. But he was NOT prepared for that game. Not even close. THAT is a coaching problem - not all on Brennan.

You lost it here.
Brady quit the morning after the championship. He never even asked for a counter.
He's also not doing so well at the next level.

They were going to pay him around a million per year.
What's Carolina paying him?

'going to'?
They knew what Brady was long before January. They could have signed him in November for a mil. Why wait? A competent contract attorney and his agent could have drawn up a document in a few days tops. Carpe Diem.
There was much more to the story. If you really want a deal, you get it done. You don't wait around allowing something to screw the deal - like a solid Carolina offer - a couple months AFTER you should have closed it.

He'd already signed his deal with LSU before the Panthers came after him.

Brady signed the LSU deal on about Jan 11.
The deal LSU FINALLY put on paper had an out for the Panther deal that got traction on Jan 7, 2020 when Rhule got hired . There would have been no out in November, when the deal should have been signed, sealed, and delivered.

"Balance" doesn't have to be about 50/50. Balance, for Alabama, is the ability to run or pass when you WANT to. That is a big deal. Short yardage, red zone, having the ability to play physical and run the ball downhill for TDs is what it's all about. Ask Missouri how that went last Saturday?
Pure spread passing teams often bog down the closer to the end zone they get for a reason. With less area to defend, less space to operate, defenses can get stubborn. It's much easier with the endzone acting as an extra man to put pressure on the QB for the same reason.
The blueprint to defend air raids is to keep receivers in front of you and speed up the QB. Pelini didn't get the memo.

Everybody understands that Leach has been mildly successful most stops but never really won anything? And that LSU in 2020 has almost no commonality with LSU from 2019?
