    And that's my point. For the past 2 yrs O has coached the DL yet they underperform. Maybe it's not his fault, but he has a hand in recruiting these kids. I really do like O but I think the title of HC is above his head.

    So I guess O gets a free pass even tho he's been the coach of the DL for 2 yrs where it's been his sole responsibility to teach technique, coach these kids up, and develop their talents. Or is it you have a want to eat mudbug tails out his ass? I do know there's only room for one tard here at TF and Taint has seniority.

    100% agree with regard to the o line. We have been underwhelming for the last several years at this position.

    I think it's more to do with he had to make due with some guys that aren't really good, Miles has really recruiting that position over the past 4 years. When Bennie Logan left to go to the NFL, our last really good defensive lineman was gone. Godchaux was good his freshman year but he hasn't been the guy we thought he would be. O inherited Neal, Gilmore, Herron, Godchaux, etc etc. The guys he recruited are going to be really good, Lawrence, Key is already a stud, Ed Alexander..... If he could have scored Rashan Gary LSU would be awesome next year. And the following year.

    Think about this, Dave Aranda basically inherited mid tier 4-3 defensive linemen and put them in the 3-4. That's a big ask, and the guys that O recruited are going to be way better than the seniors and juniors playing on the D Line.

    He only had a hand in the last class and there is a serious lack of size and talent on the DL. That's on Chavis, but it's time to bring in some DL studs.

    If we can pull Marvin Wilson, we already have Tyler Shelvin committed, that would be a good haul.
