I took it as him reacting to the Saban odds of being next head coach. I could easily be wrong though.

I think the real story is how weak our media is. They knew these things were happening inside the program and didn't call them out. 99% of LSU fans would have turned on Kelly if they knew the truth and maybe we wouldn't have wasted 4 years.

Everybody struggles with good dual threat QBs. Chambliss lit Kirby up. Reed lit Freeman up.

The long Reed TD run Baker had the perfect call on with Perkins spying. Perk has no discipline at times and allowed Green to get free. Same thing on the first TD of second half. Perk is the spy but peaks at crossers instead of doing his job.

Vandy game. We had unblocked blitzes getting to Pavia all game. They just couldn’t get him on the ground. One play Woodland takes the wrong angle and attacks Pavia front shoulder while he should be attacking his outside shoulder. Pavia spun Pyburn around one time and made him look silly. Losing Reliford really hurt in the pass rush department because he’s athletic enough to get dudes on the ground.

It’s obvious Kelly lost the team. And along with that we lost the attention to detail needed to play good defense.

His biggest crime was being a shite offense at the end of the day.

No his biggest crime was being lazy. He had an elite offense in 23 and decent offenses in 22 and 24. This was the first bad offense. He mailed it in while he was here which is why we always had a fatal flaw on each of his teams.

2023 defense
2024 run game
2025 offense

Hard to stop people when the team has given up on it's head coach. The focus and fire of the defense is gone. You were never going to shut down "elite QBs" but look at how Perkins played the last few games. No effort. No focus.

funny story, but it’s 100% bullshite. nobody playing 100+ rounds a year is still bad enough to be a 20+ handicap

at that point, you’ve played so much you’ll improve enough to be a 15 at worst

Kelly is a smaller stiffer type person. He is likely not very athletic nor flexible. Him sucking at golf makes sense.

Bro…EVERY RPO is post-snap

---

Lol no. It's amazing what people think they know but really don't even have a basic understanding of how it works.

A short quick example of a pre snap RPO.

You have a run called with a route tagged to single WR side into the short side. Say you have inside zone called tagged with a hitch to the boundary. The QB is looking at pre snap alignment and counting numbers to know if he should hand it off or throw the hitch. He makes the decision pre snap what he's going to do. A pre snap RPO. Coaches use the phrase "easy access throws". So you may have a run called but if the defense is just going to give an easy 5 yards on the hitch you take it.

quote:

---

They most certainly are not. They have RPO sprinkled in but they’re not using it as the base for their run game.

---

Yes they are. Maybe not post snap RPOs but every team is using pre snap RPOs on the majority of their run calls.

Patricia is very similar along the lines of shep. He’s turned that Ohio st defense around and he will be a head coach here in a year or two. I don’t wanna be the school to not even try and at least interview him.

---

I like Patricia and would be happy to get him to LSU but he didn’t turn that Ohio State defense around. They won a natty the year before he got there and were elite.

People used to say that about Kirby Smart.

Kirby went to UGA. There was a connection there. Schumann is way too big of a risk to try out as a first time HC at LSU.
