Instead of blaming Bustle....

[CajunFan89]

_ while you're at it blame Lance Kelly, that guy SUCKS _

so far this year has 3 TD's at least.... against his own team. missed a straight up tackle and dropped an easy INT against UGA and got burnt by Beyah from MT for a 60+ yard TD. am i missing anything???

_ while you're at it blame Lance Kelly, that guy SUCKS

I know I can't play D1 ball but my goodness he is responsible for so many big plays. and then on that one play where they blitzed him and it forced the QB to throw a bad pass he started jumping around and hollering like he had just sacked michael vick. give me a break act like you've been there it was an average play _

I totally agree and dont understand why its so hard to realize how much better and how much more heart Cooper Gerami has than Lance Kelley. I would start Gerami over Kelley anyday but i think it has something to do with ignorantly starting the seniors over the underclassmen like this his HS. Kinda like making Shankle the starter at the beginning of the year when he is clearly not the best RB on the team. Just goes back to horrible coaching decisions.

Our offensive lineman are all "VERY SLOW". They can not move.

Why was our defensive line standing up prior to the snap, why weren't they in the normal stance?

What happened to all the great defensive lineman were have recruited--McCray was supposed to be a beast, he isn't even playing, Pryor's not playing.

We did not touch their quarterback all night. It starts with our defensive coordinator and our defensive line coach. They are terrible!

I see players making bad plays coming to the sideline and the coach's are patting them on the azz---The coaching staff does not demand excellence from our players.

We did not play very physical last night, we played soft. Is this coaching or talent?

The last coach that I saw that had the fire was Jenkins (now at Rutgers)

Well, now he is the head coach for Bethune-Cookman, an HBCU, in Daytona,FL. He was an awsome recruiter, evaluator of talent and he also got the most of his talent. He would also tell it like it was and not how you wanted to hear it. He recruited some of our better receivers....Chery,Smith,Green.

Do we have any sacks this year? Wasnt the defensive coordinator's claim to fame his defenses ability to sack the QB?

_ This thread boils down to two things:

1. We are not recruiting good enough players. Especially on the lines. Even our O Line last year that was so good. Two of the players Bustle and Fisher were orginally walkons. We have also not had a DE or DT be anywhere close to the top of the league since Bustle arrived.

2. We have no offensive identity.

We started the triple zone read with Babb. It was deadly with Mike and Fenroy. Then, we simply did not pick personell to fill the holes. If we want to run the zone read, we might as well let Gauthier or McGuire run it 90% of the time.

I've been a Cajun football fan my whole life. Until we put something close to a decent product on the field. Tailgating will increasingly become an LSU viewing party. We might as well project the game on the side of Cajun field

Your right, our recruiting sucks. We have had more walk-on players become 2-3 year starters than we need. From Bill Sampy, to Derek "Sip" Keys, to Antwain Zanders.Nothing aganist those guys, but that says a lot about your recruiting. No, we can not compete with the SEC for talent, but everything else should be fair game. Our facilities are second only to LSU in the state. We should have a gate around Louisiana, East Texas and West Mississippi. Good post Slappy

The sad and disappointing thing in that is did Chery or Smith really achieve their full potential here? Both were great, but neither were able to really show how good they were because of poor play design. Also, how many players have we had that we all knew didn't achieve their full potential because of that same problem. I know that Hall davis comes to mind immediately.

_ I agree the head recruiter Wingerter is killing you. I know 3 players that wanted to come two years ago and he just brushed them off saying they were not good enough. Two are playing D1 somewhere else and one is playing D1 basketball. All of them would of played till the last second and never gave up. Recruiting is the key so yes COACH lose and PLAYERS win. That is the way I take my wins and loses.

At camp this summer, the staff announced they were not interested in any interior offensive linemen, only tackles. The centers and guards were shuffled off to the side and showed no interest at all. Now, not only were there some very good centers and guards at the camp, but all those guys now feel they had their time wasted and went back home to bad-mouth UL to their teamates and coaches. In the meantime, some of these guys our staff brushed off are being offered by schools like Ark St., La Tech, Oklahoma State, Tulane, Tulsa, Miss. St., Southern Miss etc. Its just pure stupidity.

YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU PLAY TO WIN THE GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!

[twolinepass55]

I like your thinking. Spread the D out and then put in a quarterback that runs north and south? The combination of the current qb and the men that endorse him week in and week out are, to blame.
