Canada is the guy who when boss man changes his job responsibilities goes running around the office telling everyone who will listen that ‘this wasn’t in the job description when I was hired” and stirring shite. Terrible for culture. Bad hire by O. But he had to go.

It depends on what exactly "hurt" those feelings...which is the point of my first comment. If it was just a beef between coach O and Canada, I am with you...get over it and move on for the teams sake.
But if you continuously ran your mouth on more than one occasion, then it is insubordination... Like with any other job in the U.S.
How do some of you not see that??

Canada has a very short fuse. Thats his biggest flaw. Im not surprised that it got old working with him.
Posted on 1/10/18 at 8:16 am to Laman1978
Yea because it would be nice to have Canada coach them up instead of the WW2 vets

In terms of playcalling i'm actually glad I don't have to watch all that cheap presnap motion sickness bullshite. Just get it over with and give me Ensminger calling Cam Cameron's playbook. It was more effective and more exciting anyways. Our offense got worse this year under Canada
Posted on 1/10/18 at 8:19 am to Laman1978
No Way. Did you guys like Canada's offense and production. I didn't and it was a regression from 2016 after ensminger ook over. Secondly, Canada was a poison on the staff and locker room. From what I hear from a couple of reliable people I know, Aranda did not care for him, his offense, or his temperament either, and was part of the decision team that decided to let him go. I trust in Aranda.

Apparently when Canada was asked if he was going to be at LSU for a while by the recruits family (which is a legitimate question) he told them he was not. Somehow it has gotten construed into him negatively recruiting for LSU when he was just being honest. Id rather be known as an a-hole than a liar. Just my opinion though.

There are so many things wrong with what's going on at LSU. Canada being fired is but a symptom of the real issue: F. King and Alleva being in charge.
I was all for terminating Miles, but I can't believe we've gone from Miles/Cameron to Orgeron/Ensminger.

Orgeron did when he hired him...right?
Or when Orgeron got credit for bringing in the hot OC name, was he given credit for someone else's hire that had been forced on him?
Or...was Canada great everywhere BUT here and only started to run this sucky offense when he got to BR and he essentially baited and switch poor Orgeron?
At some point, people have to admit that if you're going to trash Canada's system then it's either an indictment on Orgeron's ability to vet and hire quality candidates that mesh with "his system" or he was a figurehead and didn't make the hire.

He spoke truth to power and insecure Meddlin’ Ed couldn’t handle it.

Anybody will quit giving a frick when their "boss" undermines them at every step of the way even though the boss isn't qualified at all to do the job.

Not a professional who knows he'll have to interview for a new job eventually.

Haven’t heard or read anything about where Canada might end up. Weird. That would mean nobody wants Miles, Canada, Orgeron, Ensminger, and Chavis is a joke. Yet all were and some still are coaches at LSU. WTF!!!

I guess he wasn't motivated by his boss and management. See, everything cuts both ways.

the shite you people come up with. They are BOTH at fault. O for hiring someone who can’t work with other people. And Canada for being the person who can’t work well with others. He’s gotten run off from damn near every job he had for the same reason. The blame on O is for hiring him in the first place. Canada was the same person here hat he was everywhere else. Impossible to work with. Posted on 1/10/18 at 8:40 am to Laman1978
This is from Gomila at ATVS:

Enter the Matt Canada fiasco — and that’s not a bad word to use. Basically, once the work became serious, Canada became a problem for virtually everybody in the LSU Ops Building to work with. Dave Aranda, in particular, very much wanted him gone. It wasn’t about philosophy or jet sweeps or motions so much as it was just a basic working relationship and trust. And while I’m not privy to any specific incidents, there was enough chronicled that LSU threatened to fire Canada for cause in order to reduce the buyout owed to him (with enough of a case that Canada would have likely had to sue to fight it, which he didn’t want to do).

This doesn't really apply when your skillset is so rare in the marketplace.
Not to mention the fact that his behavior only occurred (that we know of...if you can even say we know that's how it happened in this case) in a small percentage (1 stop for 1 year to be exact) of the positions he's held in his career.
He'll be fine on his next interview. I'm sure that the potential employer will know all they need to know about this situation before they even sit him down.

What a move by the head coach to bring in such a toxic coordinator.

That's a lot of hear say there.
However, if 100% of what you say is correct why the hell are Zero and Alleva still employed by LSU?
Also, if this was all a known issue with Canada why was 95% of the fanbase 100% ecstatic with his hire???

And

Orgeron

him
anyway...
Sorry, but if you knowingly hire an a-hole you then don't get to act all surprised that the a-hole you hired started acting like an a-hole and then fire him early in his contract for assholery.
That would make you a fricking idiot.
Canada may very well be the biggest gaping a-hole on planet earth....but our HC hired him seemingly with this information wildly available. Canada being Canada is not Canada's fault.
