I think loyalty is very important, especially in this age of the transfer portal. Without money, the only hope of keeping key players if they have belief that the coaching staff truly has their best interest at heart.

I agree, and said as much. But you can take it too far when it comes time to sit a starter for non performance.

If we're not going to have a deeply talented roster like Napier put together, that Bustle era offense is what we should be running here all the time. In the age of NIL/Portal, we will never be able to stockpile talent like Napier/Hud did.

Exactly. We can get running QBs and RBs here in Louisiana by the boatload. Also most defenses are geared around stopping the most common offense of the era. And now it’s the spread/rpo.

you mean Napier for the most part inherited?

The problem with that system is it didn't win games. Desormeaux not being able beat teams through the air is why the best we did with it was 6-6. I don't think we need to run a high school offense, we just need a true dual-threat behind center. Someone that's not just good at running downfield but shifty enough to be able to extend plays in order to beat teams with his arm.

Do you not think what we are already running is a high school offense? This is about as dumbed down as an offense can be.

The problem is that those guys will be one and done here. It will be a continual Zeon Chriss situation. If Lunch continues to impress the rest of the year, I guarantee you that he will be gone as well.

There was no scoring problem with those Babb/Desmo teams. The problem back then was the defense.

Led the nation in scoring from 50 yards out.

Maybe if we all save our lunch money, we will have enough to keep Lunch at the end of the year!!!

I don't disagree, but remind me how Zeon Chriss is doing in Houston?

I wonder how happy he is with that decision. Sure, he got some money, but that is probably gone by now.
