I believe it will be significantly improved. Top 40

I think we maintain a top 10 offense and improve to a top 50 defense. D line is going to need a miracle to be any decent but that can be schemed around

[@ronblankenship729]

@brandon9491 I think the coaches will get everything they can out of the Dline, and it will be enough. They haven't been coached correctly until this year. We really have no idea how good they can be.

The players didn’t relate to Matt House. It showed in their body language over the course of the season.😂

[@jedolivier2688]

It’s definitely an improvement over last season’s coaching staff.😂

[@ronblankenship729]

@jedolivier2688 should be a significant turn around. They haven't been coached correctly until now, plus they're at LSU, so they have to be at least decent.

@@ronblankenship729 Yeah, last season they even struggled tackling. This boils down to basic fundamentals & effort. I believe this alone will be much better this season.

@@ronblankenship729 I say this mainly because of Blake Baker. If you talk to any player that’s been coached by him, they have nothing but positive things to say about him. The same can’t be said for Matt House.
As a coach, you have to be personable & be able to relate to each & every player. This didn’t happen last season, & it reared its ugly head on the field.
