C’mon guys, I still believe something went down just piecing the puzzles with all of the meetings and O stating “I’m the coach” in his Monday presser

In your lifetime, you have never seen an LSU coach act like this....you just haven't.

Even very Pro O guys are turning on him...except you.

Did you ever stop to think that maybe the reason Canada's offense is a disaster is because O has his hands all in it? I mean he did admit to doing it so who's to say he hasn't been meddling all along? I would be willing to bet that if O were fired today the team would beat everyone but Alabama and maybe Auburn.
Here's what pisses me off:

I've been watching an offense that shows some bright spots, some marginal improvement, and isn't really "bad". Just bad in areas (such as 3rd downs) or a times (2nd qtrs?).

What would the REAL Canadian offense have been doing. Would the line have had some advantages with scheming? Would the running game have been more productive? What would 3rd downs look like?

Guess what, Miles got fired for thinking "good enough is good enough". I don't need to change the offense, it's worked just fine in the past. We should be MAXIMIZING advantages. Not giving them up because we're scared they may not be able to execute Canada's very well. Guess what, they're not executing the Miles/Ensminger offense worth a frick.

Let the man do his job. If you're pleasantly surprised- fricking great. If it's a disaster? So fricking what. It already is. You lost to troy going scoreless for the entire first half.

After a little more research I HAVE BEEN TOLD that an altercation between coach O and coach Canada did not occur. I apologize for any comments I made on this matter #GeauxTigers #righttheship #gatorsaucepiquante


Notice he never said he was wrong. Someone just "told" him it didn't happen.

Screw #teamcanada. His offense is a disaster.
How would we know. We hired him at a billion dollars to do two things.

1.) try to bring some credibility to O
2.) be the fall guy as the career con D Line coach dials up the plays.

Lol that post alone is nothing but bullshite. A coach act this way? You mean the way people are saying he's acting on the rant? Because 95% of these stories are made up. And the phrase turning on the coach just shows your ignorant bias. I don't need to like or dislike him to judge him objectively you admitting you don't and never have Liked him just proves that you've always had it out for him making your opinion worthless.

Like most offenses, they build on themselves throughout the game. We are so poorly coached that we keep ourselves in shitty third and long situations. We never establish a rhythm.

We MUST prevent negative yardage, penalties and get in third and shorts.....if that happens I think we can have a fun offense to watch.

Objectively you can see that this is a rudderless sinking ship, the players have no confidence and play slow and reactive.

Instead of coaching them out of it, we bring in Duke Riley to talk to them about all the cool shite going on in Atlanta.

That was just him trying to get some of the bus tires off of the necks of his coaches and players.

He has to keep em going so he can blame them again Saturday evening.

- called Brosette '3rd string back' and didnt even know he was starting.

- told the kickers he had zero faith in them and would have to recruit one (since ours are incapable apparently)

- threw canada under the freaking bus after 4 weeks of games.

- told the caller wednesday night, that he earned the job "whether you like it or not"


these are not stories, they are facts that i heard with my own ears. Perhaps you dont have ears.

One thing I've yet to hear is the possibility that IF this altercation did occur, maybe Canada was out of line?? I mean, hasn't he had some of the same problems getting along with other coaches as you guys put on O??

More speculation what you're saying has zero factual support. Has this season been a dumpster fire? Yes 100% yes is O deserving of most of the blame? Yes again and now that we know he's meddled in the offense it should magnify that blame. But you don't know what our players confidence level is all they've done is take up for him to the point of anger in some cases. And ex players are always brought in to talk to the team last year people loved it now you're twisting it to fit a narrative like anything els you can. This is exactly my point, there's plenty to be upset about but what our fans are doing is beyond embarrassing and is the biggest melt I've ever seen.

I didnt give a shite about it then. I do however think that in a day where you indicate players arent prepared thru film enough you decide it would be better to use your already limited time with them to have them attend a fricking pep rally.

We've had bad seasons before we've had bad coaches before but we've never had fans behave this way. We had a player get into an online fight with fans just a week ago. We have fans making up fake stories to attack the coach several times a day. We have fans attacking other fans just because they're trying to stay positive for our players sake. If that doesn't emberass you more than a bad season then you're a classless spoiled jerk.


Fan is short for Fanatic. This happens everywhere and with social media and the internet the chances of this happening is far greater. The fan that fought with the player is uncalled for and classless. No fan should ever take it out on a player. What to criticize someone, take it out the coaching staff and the AD. Is LSU the only place this happens? no. just one of many examples was when Bama fans phoned in death threats to Bama's place kicker after the 2011 game in t-town. College football has some shitty arse fans and it's very unfortunate. I don't recall fans making up fan stories to attack the head coach several times daily. Most of the criticism is real and justified. Today's news just reinforces the criticism. If you cannot agree with me, than you are a blind loyalist or have been in a coma since the season started. Blind Loyalists hurts a program more than help it. It was blind loyalists that brought birth to the Mike Archer and Curly Hallman era and combine that with the athletic department being in the red made it a very dark era. Just saying.
