Chavis' D

[Windy City Vol]

I personally thought Chavis was really good D coord. But, those 3rd down would kill me, the "3rd & Chagis" as they became called.

Anyone have any cluek why at LSU, he's been flawlessly managing that defense, on all downs?I

Don't say 5* athletes. I'm at least talking about scheme-wise.

Better players in louisiana. Easier to get the best instate recruits to stay home.

[Gilbert]

I'd say the schemes haven't changed much. He just has better players now than he had in the latter years of his UT tenure.

Never really had a problem with him other then he drove me crazy with some of his defensive play calling sometimes, but guys it's still LSwho and they will shoot themselves in the foot like they always do.

You did not want to hear it but it = Patrick Peterson and the base they have down there

[thebjd]

He is a good defensive coordinator.

[HawaiiVol]

If you watched the game tonight, 3rd & Chavis is still alive and well.

As stated before, with the amount of talent you could grab by just sweeping your hand in front of you down there, his job is much easier.

It is talent. Lsu defense is loaded with future draft picks year after year.

Usually true, but I think Crazy Les might have too much talent this year to screw it up. We will see who wins in Tuscaloosa first.


Maybe WE win in Tuscaloosa

Chavis was a top-drawer coordinator. His 2005 defense was one of the best he ever fielded especially considering how the offense that year simply fizzled when Ainge had his sophomore blues.

It's hard to say 3rd and Chavis was alive and well when MSU managed 5 first downs and six points. Ay yi yi. More myths to debunk.

Chavis did much more with less especially in 2005 and 2008 at TN. He has the big boys up front on a consistent basis at LSU which makes anyone's defense better.

one word:Fulmer. phil would get a 7 point lead in the 2nd quarter and tell chavis call the dogs off we don't want to get beat deep. i'm sure everyone remembers the mustang package, didn't see it last night. they blitzed and stayed aggressive all night. phil was the problem.

Explain Auburn's last first down in his final UT game against them.

He has clearly traded the magic dust for some mojo!

Schemes are the same.
