I'm glad he was fired. Now LSU has an NFL caliber OC.

Trolling. But interesting that the same article refers to Nick Saban as being almost as difficult.

To Cam: Please be a huge control freak with regards to the LSU offense

To Les: Back the frick up and let him control

Being a control freak may not be such a bad thing at the college level, where players are still learning the game. I can see how it could lead to conflict with experienced professionals who have already found their way and don't need to be micromanaged.

That is exactly what we need. Players to be held accountable for execution and sound football. He may help reduce the ridiculous amount of false start penalties we accumulate throughout the year.

That article is worthless. It says Cam is a control freak, but it gives not a single example to back up the assertion. The same with the suggestion he and Flacco did not get along.

Why did they not get along? What exactly were the problems? The article doesn't tell us. It's all innuendo and speculation.

Harborough was unhappy with some things in the offense. Cameron told him if he wanted things done different then fire him. Harborough fired him.

Les and Cameron both know the kind of control Cameron wants and will have with the offense.

I heard it was because he and Flacco didn't get along.

I just hope he can 'think' and not go in to 'scrambled thought' panic mode with less than 5 minutes to go in a close game. We get that...I'm happy.

Control freak works better in college than the NFL.

He just wasn't that good in Baltimore. I'm fine with the hire, though. We can't possibly get any worse on offense, and I'm confident Les can get them back to the title game.

Not under CLM he won't be.
Although I've been seeing in interviews that Cam will call most of the offensive plays.
He may have "control" over mettenberger and the offense, but he's got an excellent RB coach in Frank Wilson.

Wish Cam would have been on the sidelines when LSU got to the Shama 32 with 2:00 left and a 17-14 lead....
