Brian Kelly Says It's A Continuous Process To Get Harold Perkins More Involved In Defense

LSU coach Brian Kelly spoke with reporters on Monday and was asked about linebacker Harold Perkins and their plan to get him more involved in the defense.

quote:
"We go back and forth about Harold's production and wanting to get him involved as much as we can," Kelly explained. "Part of it is setting him up for success and getting guys in the right place at the right time. And part of it is that the players need to make the plays as well."

"We continue to look at, 'Are we better suited in nickel personnel or three linebacker sets?' It's a continuous search of trying to get him into a position where he can impact our defense the most. We will continue to work on that this week and see where we end up on Saturday."

Year One : Guy Makes All of His Plays Off The Edge

Years 2 & 3 : He's a Middle Linebacker and Disappears

IT"S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE

I’ll work on it for you……put his hand in the dirt outside of the tackle or TE on obvious passing downs. Put him at star every other play.

Done.

oneg8rh8r•18 months

Put him back to doing EXACTLY what he was doing 2 yrs ago and ONLY that. You have good enough pieces to put in place that will appear better if HE is allowed to do what he does.

Rush the QB from the edge. Every. Single. Play.

Review tape from year 1. Duplicate. The end.

This is literally the only coaching situation in history the average ranter could easily solve.

Is it really that hard?

In other words, they still have no clue.

Bull shite,,,move him around,,he needs to be a rover on the edges,, not inside cutting him off unless he's inside and blitzes,,play him the same way you did when he was a freshman,,,

Lololololololol Kelly has done a HORRIBLE job coaching this year. Dude needs to get his head out his arse.

How much of a consulting fee would Saban need to tell us what we should do with Perkins?

shadyone2•18 months

He’s gone in 11 more games. Maybe we will figure it out before Ole Miss. LOL

LSUballs•18 months

Perkins agent told LSU 2 years ago to move him to LB or he was leaving, because he's too small to play DE in the NFL.

alschroed•18 months

He is not a MLB PERKINS 3 tackles 9 tackles for PENN. He is a rush OLB at 215-220 lbs.

SwampBandit•18 months

Put him at outside linebacker and let him spy and blitz, simple... NFL teams will know what to do with him but if you make it to where his name is never called you are going to lose him millions

Jdublsu•18 months

Put him on the edge on 3rd down and let him run..... there I figured it out for yall

Tiger2022•18 months

Pathetic. BK is nowhere near the coach he was advertised to be. Absolutely average at best

AlabamasSalaryCap•18 months

It's honestly pathetic how much this dud'es talent is wasted here. All-time frick-up. He should have transferred.

Macintosh•18 months

We’re in year three and Kelly still doesn’t know how to properly utilize Perkins. What a waste

BregmansWheelbarrow•18 months

You could start by running packages that have him on the field EVERY SINGKE SNAP. How the hell does it take 3 years to figure out how to get one of the best players in the country “more involved”? That isn’t even borderline stupid. It’s complete ineptness.
