It isnt a Canada, or Aranda problem

You are truly an idiot, and I think O is terrible.

Personally I think a huge problem is the players aren't playing hard for Coach O. When your head coach looks like a lost child looking for his mom on the sidelines and has no idea wth he's doing your players aren't going to play hard. The people can make all the excuses in the world about how thin LSU is on the lines but LSU just lost to f'ing Troy. There is no excuse to getting dominated by Troy at LSU.

this play hard shite needs to die. Playing hard happens when you know you are prepared. It isn't a rah rah deal

Alleva should be run, but O intentionally did harm to the whole state. He knew he would put it in the ditch. Alleva is just the victim of the con.

He should be fired for giving him a contract like he did.

No coordinator is perfect. I get that.

But it's hard to reconcile that two accomplished coordinators could simultaneously fail this miserably without outside "help."

It almost makes you wonder if the talent/experience level of players they have to work with may be a problem, no?

Either could have said something either straight out or through some sort of leak that things weren't going good. Instead we got a snow job about how awesome we were and how we were going to dominate.

Has there been any comments from them lately?

WATCH OUT! you will have clowns here show up and tell you canada is dogshit! it is the same clowns who blamed jimbo, crowton, stud and cam instead of you know who!

Indeed. The coordinators submit game plans to the HC and he redlines them. The strategy and tactics for each game are his call. Thus, it is true that this is Canada's offense, but it is cut and pasted by Orgeron, to his satisfaction.

Canada's hands are absolutely tied by Orgeron. Canada, cocky, flippant, headstrong man that he is, strains against Orgeron's authoritarian persona.

Orgeron has nothing to lose, at this point, by handing all responsibility for the offense off to Canada, letting him rise or fall on his own merits. He should communicate his intent to both Canada and Aleva.

Meanwhile, he can line up Canada's replacement, just in case. Last time i checked, Orgeron's old buddy Hugh Freeze is looking for work. Get the band back together.

Regardless, Orgeron needs to let his $1.5mm goldenboy OC do his own gameplanning and play-calling.

Just do it.

I don't care to get into a useless argument. But IMO, there is no major talent, depth, experience factor that would result in us getting blown out by a terrible State team.

I think you are confusing "we shouldn't have a major depth/talent" issue that would result in us getting blown out with "we don't have a major depth/talent" issue that resulted in us getting blown out.

If you watched that game, we were getting dominated at the LOS. If you didn't notice that, watch it again. Lawrence couldn't play. Alexander got hurt early. Gilmore had to play way too many snaps and he's not that talented to begin with. In addition, Chaisson is extremely light on the edge...and our LBs were destroyed in the running game.

On offense, we couldn't protect at all, and except for one drive, we really couldn't run the ball.

That results in a blowout.

If LSU were completely healthy, we'd probably have enough on the DL to be above average. But, we definitely weren't healthy then, and we still aren't healthy. When we get Lawrence, Herron, and Alexander back, we'll be at our best...whatever that is. I expect the defense will make significant improvement at that point.
