New defensive coordinator John Chavis has made a huge impact on the entire LSU defense, but no where so apparent as at the linebacker position. He has taken the talent and fashioned it into an impenetrable group that is aggressive, fast, and can defend the run and the short pass extremely well.

I would hate to be Ace Foyil.

For someone so "inside" the LSU program as you, Geaux, I'm surprised you put Shomari Clemons on the depth chart since he hasn't been a part of the team for over a week now.

Pursuant to your modus operandi, you always find something to criticize. However, you are right; Clemons left the program right after the spring practice sessions and he should not be on the depth chart. I'll fix it.
