LSU received a boost to their offensive line when four-star transfer Miles Frazier committed to the Tigers over Florida State and Ohio State. They struggled mightily upfront with the constant injuries and overall subpar play from the offensive line. Along with Frazier, the Tigers added the No. 1 player in Louisiana Will Campbell to their offensive line as well.
With the addition of Frazier from Florida International through the transfer portal, we spoke with the former head coach of SMU and Hawaii, June Jones. Jones now spends his time teaching the famed ‘Run and Shoot’ offense that he made famous during his time on the sidelines at the collegiate level. The national coach of the year in 1999 has been around the game of football since 1971 with the Oregon Ducks.
“This kid has the hands, movement, and balance to become a really good pass protector. His highlife tape is pretty good – like this to his feet and balance,” Jones said. “He can play; if I had him he would be a first-round pick by the time he was to be drafted! My record on getting offensive linemen drafted confirms the validity of what I am saying for these types of kids. He will have to work harder as there will be more competition at LSU. If he does he will play there and become a top pick.”
Is there a player comparison for Frazier?
“I had to talk the Steelers into taking Kelvin Beachum,” June said. “He would be a starter at left tackle for years. They finally drafted him in the last round I think and he has played left tackle for more than 10 years now for a few teams. This kid on his highlight tape as freshman reminds me of Kelvin…..but bigger.”
The former head coach in the NFL as well in college last coached in The Spring League in 2020. He is currently involved with CoachTube, an online coaching course in sports. He offers a coaching course on his famed ‘Run & Shoot Offense.’
