LSU head coach Ed Orgeron joined the SEC Coaches Teleconference Wednesday and said he and athletic director Joe Alleva had a meeting this week with offensive coordinator Matt Canada and defensive coordinator Dave Aranda.

Orgeron said that he meets with Alleva every Monday and decided this week to pull in the coordinators to get everyone on the same page.

The discussions between offensive coordinator Matt Canada, defensive coordinator Dave Aranda, Orgeron and Alleva unfolded in Orgeron’s office, and they centered around “accountability,” a source familiar with the discussions told The Advocate. The four left the meeting in agreement on the direction of the program.

“It was a gut check meeting,” the source said. “It was more that guys need to look each other in the eye and tell each other how it is.”

"Win some games or we are all fricking fired" - Joe Alleva per my sauces

Clueless Joe meets with Special Ed to solve our woes.

Mike the Tiger is crying!

Mike the Tiger was hard mumbling to himself "I knew I should have take that CLEMSON invite !!"

Now Alleva is telling the coordinators how to do their job? Just wow.

stewie•104 months

This is a gigantic red flag that screams, "things are a mess!"

rschwe5•104 months

Wtf is alleva doing? If anyone knows less than Orgeron, its alleva... let Canada and Aranda do their job. O needs to do what people think he can do... motivate and recruit. Both things are in the dumps right now

"my boss has my back, do what i say or YOU'RE gonna get smeared and fired"

basically

TigerCoon•104 months

You gotta believe both coordinators are thinking "frick this".

Anyone who has ever worked beneath someone who brings little, if anything, to the table can relate to this.

Bad look for a Manager when you boss has to come in and get your team on the same page.

- pretty sure we can all agree on the direction of the program

Probably shouldn’t make meetings like this public. Fans and media will let their imaginations run wild. Like I said, the best thing for this team is to get out of BR ASAP and head to Gainesville!

fr33manator•104 months

The only thing that could make it positive is Alleva getting fired

JumpingTheShark•104 months

Orgeron was such an awful hire.

BigPerm30•104 months

What a lack of leadership. I can tell you Saban isn't bringing in his coordinators into a meeting like this. Next week O is bringing in the guy that stripes the field.

jromero•104 months

That was a good one!

Cdonaldson27•104 months

This is sad.

lsusportsman2•104 months

That face of Alleva in the picture is the perfect representation of him. Looks absolutely confused and he's been pretty much confused in his entire tenure at LSU. He is in over his head.

monsterballads•104 months

Even if they did meet, HOW DID THE MEDIA FIND OUT ABOUT THIS?!?! Jesus Christ joe, you have ZERO awareness!

ExpoTiger•104 months

The train is completely off the rails. This kind of coaching heirarchy won't work. That was my fear and it's proving to be true. The head coach cannot be the least qualified. Things will get worse before they get better unfortunately

bootyswamper•104 months

What a fricking shite show

luismlg•104 months

The only reason Alleva would bring in the coordinators is because he does not trust O has been delivering his message properly to his coordinators. Not good.

chitiger91•104 months

fricking losers meeting to discuss how to make an ideal roux. I hate everyone in that room for ruining my Saturday's. I hope they all get fired and never rehired to an NCAA job unless it's ruining Bama or A&M
