Does it really matter. They are all lame ducks.

I mean we just need a warm body at this point. Does it matter if we finish 5-7 or 7-5? We haven't even seen who's opting out yet.

Frank Wilson is absolutely the most qualified assistant on the staff to be interim head coach.

Since Sloan is also fired, your other choice would be Baker who has never been a head coach in college.

Thats not his fault. Sloan called games 60/40. By halftime of the TAMU game it was 33/66 run/pass and then he quit calling run plays.

Cole Cubelic has been saying this since the summer. You have to CALL run plays and stick to it to be able to complain about lack of ability.

Now do the offensive line that the RB is running behind.

Ole Miss was only rushing 3 most of the game. As a reminder, LSU had 5 offensive linemen. Math aint Math'n

I kind of hope we come out in the i-formation against Bama on the first drive.

Not sure it is his fault that we called 1 run play for Berry in the 2nd half. The run coordinator title is something he got for a pay bump. He wasn't the OC. He won't be the OC next year.

So what?

How much input does the “run game coordinator” actually have on game day?

I don’t think he sets the rotation and he damn sure doesn’t call the plays.

Frank Wilson handled this when O left and did fine.

Berry was getting 7 yards a carry until they decided to stop calling running plays. Or when they called a running play, it was some stupid misdirection to Johnson or Thomas.

You are talking about head coach. The thread is about offensive coordinator

Do you expect them to go out and hire an interim OC? Good grief!

They just needed someone who has experience calling plays, that’s probably the only reason why Atkins got promoted to OC.

ETA: we no longer have aspirations of making the playoffs this year, they are just trying to limp to the finish line

You literally have no idea how he would do calling plays

You’re sitting here bitching about an interim OC

What an a-hole
