Did he undermind O and go straight to Joe with coaching problems? The only other thing would be, for a change to be made, is someone was banging someone else's wife.

O couldn't stand not putting his hands in the offense and Canada didn't bend over and take it like O wanted.

You’ve been posting on this forum throughout this ordeal. How in the frick did you possibly miss this being discussed 1,000 times or think a new topic on this issue was needed?

Have another downvote.

I think it just might be a personality conflicts- just my opinion. When you get in these situations strong type A personalities or alph male - it can be tough

Offense was unproductive, undisciplined, and penalty ridden early on, O was forced to meddle. Canada did not take direction well. Conflict ensued

Whatever the problem was...Canada gave up $1.5 million so we would not know what happened. My guess...it had nothing to do with football.

Someone creative needs to compose LSU's version of O Canada to summarize this year.

O Canada
Our yank and native baw

Thats all I've got

seems to me Canada is just a very thin skinned individual. The whole idea that a HC is not going to have his input into a game plan is absurd. With the amount of penalties and disorganization in the offense early in the season that he was told to pull it back some would have been expected from any HC with a pulse

to answer your question take a trip back in time; the first 4 games of the year. LSU offense was heavily, heavily penalized and they obviously were not performing. this was evident when nearly shut out against MSU and couldn't even score much against Troy. in short; we had a terrible offense and it was undisciplined as hell. O probably realized his mistake at that time. i'm sure O was rough on Canada and I think he should have been; this is big boy football.

the offense improved a bit (florida was a break delux) gradually and we beat some pretty weak teams. then we lost to bama and never really challenged. lastly, we scored 17 measly points agaist notre dame and i'm sure that was finis.

the fact is matt Canada did not improve our offense and was paid highly to do so. I was hoping he would get another year but what do I know.

the rant, I'm sure, will not like this explanation because it is not dramatic enough. i'm certain that you will hear about massive infidelity, recruiting expense cheating, fist fights in the locker room and other neat stuff that reality tv uses to gain audience.

This is what happened according to me. O pitches binder with Kiffin as oc. Kiffin being the jerk everyone knows he is backs out. O informs Alleva. Alleva looks for splash hire and picks Canada. O has no say. During season he doesn't like the offense and tries to modify. Canada runs to Alleva like a little cry baby. O feels betrayed and is done with Canada. Alleva calls meeting and o is told to back off. Alleva leaves O hung out to dry. O tells Alleva it isn't going to work.
