    It’s plain stupid to suggest it’s on CMD only. Any coach we might have hired would have similar issues, and perhaps more because he’d have to start recruiting over and he’d be missing all the same people CBN took to ul@Gainesville.

    If you look at the current roster it is loaded with freshman and sophomore OL. Hopefully that means a bright future at those positions.

    My opinion is that we are in a big rebuilding year from both a talent and coaching standpoint.
    Don’t forget McCaskill, Bailey and Waits also.

    So see if you can name these head coaches from their records, and where they coached:
    Any of these their first college head coaching job?

Plus no portal and NIL to compete with during Billy's tenure. Here is the 2017 roster - https://ragincajuns.com/sports/football/roster/2017 if you are interested
    Quite a lineup.

    Let’s not forget CBN released every recruit from their commitment and then evaluated and re-recruited almost every one of them. That was a very good but small class. Additionally CBN had several years that he was below the 85 limit as part of the Hud punishment.

    Essentially he inherited a lot of talent, and an NCAA burden.

    Louisiana's offensive line has shown incredible durability over the past few seasons (this year notwithstanding) and that may have tainted coach Mike Desormeaux's opinion on getting help going into this year, but posters on RP lamented the lack of activity on bolstering the o-line this past offseason

    Agreed you can’t have too many good ones.

    I don't know who Doc is but Maggard said Marlin wins 75% of his games.

    I never understood why not a single outlet asked him to clarify.

    My suspicisionis it was a Freudian slip of a private conversation with Marlin on what he would need to accomplish this year to keep his job.

    All this is fine but it has nothing to do with my post. Go back and look and you will see that the poster was incorrect in attributing that comment to Doc Savoi.

    Looking at the roster OL can become a position strength again very soon. Hopefully King McGowen will be back healthy. He was penciled in as a starter had he not gotten hurt. The Moreau kid from Pineville was pushing for playing time as a true freshman. Look at the roster it is filled with freshman and sophomores that they were really high on when they recruited them. They just young. OL is the hardest position on the field to come in from high school and play right away.

    The complaining was definitely all about Levi and about our inept coaches for playing him. It was week in and week out despite victory after victory from game two to fourteen. They gave it a big head start after the game 1 loss. It was kind of like what basketball is getting here this year by some except worse . . .
