re: LSU is not a rebuild. LSU hired O to avoid a rebuild.

It's sad I have but one upvote to give.
Yup.
I hammered most of the summer. The plan doesn't make sense unless O can routinely 1) Hire the very best coordinators nearly most likely every 1-2 years 2) Incorporate new philosophies very quickly
This whole idea that the THE PLAN is to constantly hire the best coordinators IS DUMB. There's no guiding philosophy, there's no single, strong vision leading them. We're just running a separate offense and defense, not an overall game plan.
There's a difference between a head coach where the plan is do control the game of football by doing x, y, and z and hiring coordinators that can help that vision - and having to do that frequently..... and planning to hire coordinators frequently as the basis of the plan.
It's mindboggling that people don't see that.
I still askk: What is O's vision for LSU football? How does he want to win games? How does he approach the game of football?

any claim that O needs time to rebuild (in whatever manner the argument is posted) is complete and utter hogwash. one of, if not THE primary reasons that O was hired was to maintain continuity and talent (especially that recruiting class that apparently we could never live without, year after year).
Yup.
quote:
any claim that Canada needs more time works against O, also, because basically the rest of his sales pitch was that in addition to continuity (aka, no rebuild), he would hire the best coordinators and they would keep the team rolling. so Canada (and whatever OC replaces him when he leaves) get 0 patience or waiting time because we were promised that we would have a top offense with a revolving door of OCs and there would never be a drop off in production. that is Ed's phil-O-sophy (And the same argument will apply to the D when Aranda leaves. O has no room for any mistakes in hiring coordinators since he is completely reliant on them)

excatly
O having no real ethos or philosophy is going to doom this team. like i posted saturday night, this is likely the apext of coaching talent and on-field talent that O will have at LSU. the odds that O ever has coordinators of the level of Aranda/Canada is very low. the odds he has that level of coaching talent WITH the personnel we have? essentially 0

Very well said. Some O supporters are going to argue that Canada needs time. But we'll have that issue every year or two. Between the two coordinators someone will leave just about every year.

Good points. Want to see a vision?
HERE is when LSU was led by a clear and coherent vision and message from the top.
