If our QB play is in the top 50 this season they should give him a million. If it's true he's staying on to coach QBs.

Best wishes to SK and his family

I guess Billy Gonzalez really never had a chance at being OC one day at LSU if he wasn't promoted now.

I am calling BS on this reason. Being OC should be less physical work than being a position coach. Parkinsons is fairly easy to control in early stages.

Wonder if its depression actually and not Parkinsons

I'm confused on why he can still coach QBs, but not be OC??


My question also, I just dont understand.

I feel like this is a knee jerk reaction by either him or Miles to the news of his illness. Who knows, maybe its for the better.

Prayers sent to him and his family. Parkinson's disease can be difficult for not only the person with it, but the entire family.

I assumed it has something to do with longer hours, but I'm not sure. But considering he's still gonna be "involved" in game planning, there might be another reason.

Is Stud gonna be OC/OL? If Krag is staying with the team, aren't we maxed out on coaching positions?

Best of luck to Coach Krag. He's had a rough go over the last few years.

Who would coach QB's this season if he did leave? Maybe JJ is progressing under his coaching?

We can replace the OC, but can't replace the QB Coach position.

First of all, prayers are with Coach K. I am hoping that all will go well with his health through this ordeal.

Secondly, everyone forgets the long debated argument on how involved is Les with the offense. I am glad to hear Coach K's health will allow him to stay and coach the QB's. This is what we need him for and if he can do this I will be glad that he be able to stay a part of the Tiger family. If he is able to do that then I think we will be alright. We might be simpler on offense but I have felt that we needed to simplify the offense for a while. I feel we have the talent to execute on offense and dominate and for some time we have overthought the gameplan and tried to make the offense too complicated. As a result we have not performed to expectations on any kind of consistent basis offensively.

You MFers need to take a lude or something an step back away from the edge and let this pan out. If the offense is better than last year, alot of you doomsday posters are going to look like jackasses. Shock there.

so what i said is out of the realm of possibility? It doesnt make sense



The Invisible Pink Unicorn isn't out of the realm of possibility when you consider that the realm of possibility is an infinte, 11-dimensional existence. I'm not going to be the dick going around selling some highly unlikely bullshite, though.

There is this thing called Mental Stress and I am sure that all the hours he would have to put in would not take a toll on him physically!! For real, there is this thing called reallity!!!!!
