These guys we felt were shitty are still landing at SEC programs. Gonna be interesting to see if it was a talent problem of a Brad Davis problem.

Maybe all the offensive lineman just hated each other and wanted to get away.

He was good for a backup Tackle, but I’m not sure I would trust him to become a good SEC starter. We’ll see if that happens under different coaching, I guess. I doubt he starts at UT next season, though.

I mean, to believe every blue chip LSU recruited is talentless is ignorant. The scheme Sloan and the offensive staff were running was an abject disaster.

This is what makes me have hope for Weston Davis. His last 3 games were his best and saw actual improvements.
Excited to see what the new OL coaching staff can do. Kid is a specimen

I can see a couple of misevaluations, but 10 of them? Nah bruh. Dude could recruit his arse off, but couldn't coach his way out of a paper bag.

It was always a scheme problem.

I think it was a Brad Davis problem. But we will find out soon enough. Maybe the scouting services had it wrong

I hear ya, but man, regardless of scheme, at some point as an offensive lineman, you have to look at the guy in front of you and say “I’m pushing you off this football” and the majority of them not only failed to do that, but they were like a swinging bar door letting guys through the line of scrimmage. Not even competitive.

The guys that left weren't shitty. They were young and playing in the SEC.
There is a reason all of them are highly sought after by SEC programs. They have tremendous upside despite struggles that can largely be attributed to youth.
LSU took the lumps and these other programs will reap the rewards.
I'm not saying it wasn't, but keeping this line together should have been a top priority of the new staff.
The people thinking true freshman and redshirt freshman we had playing last year were finished products are just stupid and have little understanding of SEC football in the trenches.
Freshman struggle. Idiots think these guys were "processed".

I think the line was thinking more than acting in the zone scheme. It’s much more complex to run zone. It takes time, reps and cohesiveness that needs to develop.
Theres almost too much turnover in CFB these days to successfully implement it.

Will be a good SEC RT

I don’t think they were all bad. Some were just young and others out of position. I think overall they shared having to operate under a poor to mediocre line coach and the offensive scheme with Sloan was unproductive.
You don’t see any of these guys going to Kentucky.

Curne and Echols have talent. Same with Adams, who I still hope they bring back with the portal OL class as shallow as it is.
Chester has been so very bad and weak in his time here and stood out as a weak link on a good (if underachieving) OL in 2024. I’m not sure if he’s going to make it in the SEC. I’ll be very surprised if Bama takes him.
Mubenga has some athletic talent, but if he doesn’t get stronger and much better technically, he will still get abused.
I don’t think we have any clue about Calloway, but the fact that he couldn’t get on the field when we had all those Tackle injuries doesn’t bode well for him. Maybe he finds a good lower P4 or G5 spots and develops.

Left for more than $2M. I’d go too.

This is what bums me out the most. We'll never know what we got with these guys because they transfer out. Hopefully over the next few years we're able to keep younger talent and have 3rd and 4th year guys starting, because that seems like the recipe for success.

I thought watching Williams that he had a lot of potential at tackle. He’s young but I think he will be a player for them. Had better feet than Curne at tackle. Hated to see him leave just like Adams and Echols. I’d be surprised if Mubenga and Chester land a spot at an SEC school.
