Making a OC hire for any other reason other than he fits what you want in an offense philosophically indicates poor decision making.

Even wanting to win games? That's poor decision making?

Making a splash hire is a negative, because you're making a decision for the wrong reasons.

If I wanted a YUGO and went to the dealership and got a brand new Toyota for the same price. Is that a negative or a wrong decision?

Kiffin was brought in to bring in spread concepts to Saban’s preferred pro style. That’s adapting

and McElwain brought in the pistol to add to it

along with other OCs incorporating more single back sets and moving away from the i

One thing is clear. Miss St had a very good defense considering their level of talent.

Damn good offense also. They scored 37 points on Aranda's Defense.

Scratch that. They scored 37 points on Coach Eaux's defense.

and Troy scored 24 on Coach Eaux's defense. Later when Aranda was coaching again Bama scored 24 and A&M and Auburn scored less than Troy.

And people are happy with that process?

I think Canada's offense can work but it's obvious that even Orgeron didn't like his offense. What does it say about a coach that he has no plan in place after his plan A falls through, he makes a "splash" hire, then he tries to modify that guy's offense?

Does this seriously not scream poor program management to you guys? Why is someone that's running a major football program prone to making "splash" hires?

GTFO with this poo. Canada was at the top of every OC list after last season.

Speculation...and shitty speculation, at best. Do you know that Canada was not Plan B?

Canada's name was being brought up for several jobs. O beat other schools to the punch by signing him this time last year. Canada was the only OC as a Broyles Finalist last year.

This has been discussed a million times but, to address your question, an easy response is there was an issue and the Head Coach felt like that after 4 games he needed to step in. The offense had been bad through 4 games including scoring only 7 points in a loss two weeks earlier; 3/13 on 3rd down. Then the next game the offensive play calling in the 1st qtr was pretty much Danny throwing incomplete passes as we held the ball a grand total of 4 mins and some change.

The first 3 games of the season saw LSU commit 30 total penalties for 272 yds. 17 of those were offensive (most holds and illegal formations) and drive killers! There were a few times that we had penalties on back-to-back plays.

A common misconception around here is that O took the play calling away in 1st half v. Troy. FAKE NEWS! Canada called the plays minus the shifts and with little motion. The play calling was no different. No shows shifts and little motion...there was no "modified" offense from O besides that. BTW, LSU was 0/9 on 3rd down that day. 0/5 in the 2nd half with the "modifications" off and sprinkled in a 4:29 TOP in the 4th.....GAME OVER!

The better questions is: Why do we have fans like you? I hope your mom cuts off your internet privileges.

Of course not. Eaux has a carefully crafted plan to make LSU great again

---

Damm right he does. Build the team in the trenches and hire the best assistant coaches to coach them. Doing a hell of a job so far.

quote:

---

Saban loved to rip into him. He was still the best play caller in America. Coaches can have their differences & still work together. Unless of course you’re predetermined to hate ed orgereon

---

And there you go.........

quote:

---

I challenge you to find one solitary person who believes we should fire Orgeron right now. Why does it always go to that with you? It's possible to have reservations about O without wanting the guy gone immediately.

---

Every damn thread. Despite everyone (that I'm aware of) saying "no, that would cause too much damage to the program".

quote:

---

If I'd known he'd try to modify the guy's offense 4 games in I'd say why the hell are you hiring this guy

---

Because you are a simpleton and can't distinguish between modify and simplify.

quote:

---

It would've been great if Orgeron loved this offense, but he clearly does not

---

You spout bullshite like no one's business.

quote:

---

It cost us in humiliating fashion

---

That and the defense. It was a TOTAL team loss. The haters only harp on the one half that the offense was simplified because of penalties and freshmen players.

quote:

---

It matters that Orgeron clearly has problems with Canada and his offense

---

It would matter if it were true. But, since it isn't true does it really matter?

quote:

which highlights the error in making a "splash" hire

---

Your made up shite does not highlight an error in making a splash hire. It is just stupid to think so.

quote:

---

Install an offensive philosophy with which you agree. Isn't that common sense?

---

You have to be hoping that Canada is gone next year. If not all of your bullshite will be exposed.

where exactly is he getting a HC gig? Canada is one of the highest paid OCs , and is paid more than half of all FBS head coaches.

If Canada leaves it will be for a HC job or the NFL. If not he will be at LSU next season.
