Make A Change Now Before Its Too Late

Are we really any better without Les Miles? I am not saying that Les Miles didn’t deserve to be fired when he refused to change his outdated and very predictable offensive scheme, but what have we really gained since his departure? From I-formation to 1980’s spread, we still have an offense that cannot find its way into the end zone. Let’s be honest with ourselves. Our offense is our field goal kicker. Without him, we would have lost several games this season and all of us would be complaining anyway. So I say either fire Ed Ogeron or demote him back to team mascot or whatever he was with Les Miles and definitely get rid of Steve Edsminger. I see no sophistication in his playbook or his play calling. While we are at it, fire Joe Alleva too. He is the weasel that put us in this predicament. What LSU needs is a real head coach and a real OC who understand modern-day X’s and O’s and take us away from the predictability of Cam Cameron, Matt Canada, and Steve Edsminger. Someone like Mike Norvell (Memphis) could do amazing things at LSU. Even the OC at ASU, Rob Likens, is doing some interesting things with offense. Inaction is only going to yield the same results, or worse, as teams around the entire league are only getting better and better. It’s sad and embarrassing that one of the most powerful and talent rich teams in all of college football cannot score points other than field goals. It’s been this way for quite a while. Soon young impressionable 4-5 star players won’t want to play for a team that has a reputation of impotency and failure. When we lose our ability to attract 4-5 star players you can forget about beating Alabama or winning a National Championship ever again. And finally, to the present or future LSU coaching staff, YOU MUST HAVE A DUAL THREAT QUARTERBACK to succeed in today’s college football. LSU’s history of recruiting one dimensional QB’s that can throw, but not run, or can run, but not throw is NEVER going to serve you well against top teams. You need a prolific QB who can win with his feet or arm. Other teams seem to find these players why can’t we???
