re: Football Scoop: Matt Canada emerging as "serious candidate"

Would be the first smart thing this program has done in a long time

I think Orgeron and LSU look desperate and stupid to pursue Kiffin. It's like Bama envy. After all of this, if it's anyone but Kiffin the pundits will say LSU failed, was jilted, etc.
Now everyone else is the consolation prize.

I've been OK with the Orgeron hire but damn, sometimes he seems to lack focus. Of course, I still think he's a step up from Les, but that bar was pretty low.

"Pittsburgh offensive coordinator Matt Canada has emerged as a “serious candidate” for LSU’s offensive coordinator role should Lane Kiffin not opt to join Ed Orgeron’s staff, according to Ross Dellenger of the Baton Rouge Advocate. Dellenger also notes that, as previously reported, LSU has also vetted Steve Sarkisian and Mark Helfrich for the role.

We better not just "vet" this hire. Frigging interview the candidates
